Notes

  • Notes:Low and slow is the best way to smoke meats. This really allows the flavor of the seasonings and the wood to penetrate into the meat and it becomes packed full of flavor!Always make sure to check the steam pot and fill with water as needed. It is important to maintain a high moisture level within the smoker.The rub can be made ahead of time and kept in an airtight container in a dark place (inside a cabinet is fine) and will keep for about a year.
  • Do I have to use a specific kind of wood? No! We love to use different kinds of wood as each variety lends its own unique flavor. We chose oak for this recipe as it’s the traditional wood used in Texas and lends a mild flavor. If you can’t find oak, cherry is a great substitute.

  • Can these be reheated? Yes. We typically don’t have leftovers, but you can certainly reheat them to enjoy them the next day. How do I store the Smoked Beef Ribs? You can store the ribs in an airtight container in the fridge for 3-5 days.
