Method 1: Jacks Creek Black Angus Chuck Short Rib Plate (MS2+)

   Set your smoker to 250°F (121°C). Oak, hickory, or post oak wood pairs exceptionally well with beef ribs.

3. Smoke Low & Slow
   Place the ribs bone-side down and smoke until the internal temperature reaches 165–175°F (74–79°C) and a rich bark develops, approximately 3–4 hours.

4. Wrap & Finish Cooking
   Wrap tightly in butcher paper or foil and continue cooking until probe tender at 200–208°F (93–98°C).

5. Rest Before Serving
   Rest for 45–60 minutes before slicing between the bones and serving.
