I have wanted to try Smoked Beef Ribs on the Big Green Egg for years. A few weekends a go I checked this item off my bucket list. The main reason I waited so long to try smoking beef ribs was I never saw what I was looking for at the grocery store. After poking around at my local Whole Foods and showing the butcher what I was looking for, I finally hit the jack pot. They were pretty much everything I hoped for. Ask your butcher for an uncut rack of beef short ribs and you will be in business. The meatier the beef rib the better… so pick out the thick ones!
