This was my 3rd. cook on my new grill....first try was a boneless lamb roast on my Memphis Select with temp probe...turned out perfect. 2nd. cook was just a whole bunch of burgers which also turned out perfect....(OK that's stuff I've done many times even on my old gas grill)...today I thought I'd be adventurous and bought a whole bunch of beef ribs....they were all pretty uniform in size about 3" squares with a bone on one side and a fat strip on the opposite....I'm assuming my mistake was that I didn't marinate them in something for a couple of days? I just applied some rub and put them on the top rack at 200 deg. for about 4.5 hrs. metal drip pan was underneath with water and a bit of beer...internal temp probe was set for 150 which was what was showing at the 4.5 hr. time.... Well they were tasty but that's about all...stringy fatty and tough (I guess that's just the way ribs are except for what I must have done wrong to get them so tough?) Had to promise my wife that next time I'll do better (something that I can't screw up like a couple of steaks?)
So....What's the method for doing beef ribs?....and is it any different for pork ribs?
