Ingredients
- 5 lb beef rib
- yellow mustard
Rub seasoning
- 3 tbsp black pepper ground
- 1 tbsp kosher salt
- 1 tbsp dark brown sugar
- 2 tsp mustard powder
- 2 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp cayenne pepper
Mop
- ¾ c water
- ¼ c apple cider vinegar
Instructions
- Remove extra fat or silverskin on top of the beef plate. There should be relatively no large fat chunks on the top of the beef plate. Leave the membrane on the back of the ribs to keep them from separating during smoking.
- Combine all the rub seasoning ingredients until incorporated.
- Coat the beef plate with a light layer of yellow mustard.
- Cover the entirety of the beef plate with the rub seasoning.
- Place the beef plate on a sheet pan and cover with foil. Place this in the fridge for at least 8 hours and up to 24 hours. When ready to cook, remove the beef plate from the fridge and place it on the counter for about 2 hours to come to room temperature.
- Preheat the smoker to 250 °F.
- Place the beef plate into the smoker. At 2 hours, check the internal temperature and texture.
- Spritz the beef plate with the mop mix and check continually every hour.
- Remove the beef plate when it reaches an internal temperature of 203-207 °F and the bark looks dark and feels hard. Use the probe to check the texture of the meat, it should feel soft inside and slide easily.
- Let rest for 30 minutes on the counter.
