Beef Short Ribs Recipe -- Should you Wrap or Not?

[@nategibbons172]

I don’t know why but for 8+ months I have been checking videos because I had a pair of ribs cut the same way as you do here. I finally found this video and it’s about a half hour till I’m probably gonna pull them off and let them rest. Finally seeing somebody cooks short ribs cut this way, I’m feeling really good about my cook

[@TROYCOOKS]

I'm confident you'll be very happy with the results of your cook Nate. And I truly appreciate you watching brother!!! Cheers to ya!!!

[@nategibbons172]

@@TROYCOOKS Couldn’t ask for better my first time doing these. Thanks and keep on keepin on!

[@toddf007]

LOVE Lobel's of NY. Haven't tried their short ribs, but their steaks can't be beat. Nice job and thank you for the video.

[@TROYCOOKS]

***** Thank you Todd, I love Lobel's meats too. These short ribs were far beyond anything I can find locally. I hope you give their short ribs a try and I appreciate you stopping by to check out the video!

[@taefit6]

The ones wrapped you can immediately see how tender they are and it looks absolutely scrumptious, you nailed it !!!!

[@TROYCOOKS]

Sharon Gray Hi Sharon, I am glad you enjoyed the video. I sure did enjoy eating these short ribs! Pure heaven!!! Have a great weekend!

[@calvinstulip]

Great video. I have only been smoking for about a year now and haven't done beef ribs yet but have been wanting to give them a shot. In my "field recon," I was thrilled to see that someone did a side-by-side comparison with taste test at the end of their experiment. You picked up a new subscriber today. Thanks for the upload.

[@reconranger1370]

Hey T-Roy I am going to cook some beef ribs this weekend for the Holiday and had to watch your video about wrapping again. Glad I am a subscriber. It's like having a BBQ encyclopedia to refer to. Thank you sir!!

[@stubanshuberi8793]

i was just about to look for some ideas on weather to wrap beef ribs or not and thanks to your video i will wrap them! love the video keep them coming!!!

[@TROYCOOKS]

Stubanshuber I Glad I could help you out! Wrapped is the way to go! I'm sure your ribs will turn out fantastic!! Thanks for watching!

[@Sawfly1369]

Great vid. Enjoyed watching it. I have always wrapped mine. Never tried it without wrapping.

[@TROYCOOKS]

James Whitaker I've never enjoyed beef ribs because they are tough most of the time, but these wrapped short ribs were divine!!! Definitely will be doing beef ribs like this again! Thanks for watching James!

[@unknownbogey1539]

The color on those ribs looked amazing.. I'll bet they ate real fine too.. YUMMY!!

[@guns4funfreedomkeeper999]

One of your best videos T-ROY. Good Beef Ribs are one of the hardest thing to find where I live in the NW (I am not a yuppy). I can find short ribs more often the the full cut conventional beef rib. I will try this technique this weekend.

[@17025601]

Thanks for the cooking demo. "Wrapped" is the winner for tenderness, but the temps you mention along the way is valuable to me, too.

[@TROYCOOKS]

GizmoBee1702 Glad you enjoyed the video! The bark on the unwrapped was darker and harder to bite through, but the tenderness and flavor of the wrapped just couldn't be beat. I'm wrapping brisket on video soon, so stay tuned!!!

[@Thaneii]

Hey Mr. Gruffy with the Shades... you always get my thumbs up when I see that Cheshire grin on your face. Thanks for sharing this with us, and I hope you and Karen have a fantastic weekend. Get her to do more videos with you, because you're so fun together.

[@TROYCOOKS]

Thaneii Thanks Phil, I've been working on Karen trying to get her into more videos. I'm sure she'll come around soon. I appreciate your support brother!! Hope you have a wonderful weekend also!

[@twofast7863]

Yummy yummy. Good to see a experiment going on. that's a great cook man.

[@TROYCOOKS]

two fast Thanks! I love experimenting with food and showing others what to do and how to do it. I appreciate you checking out the video!

[@TheWolfePit]

I watched this yesterday from my phone and couldn't reply......so I came back to watch again! These look so rich and succulent Troy!! Fantastic cook!

[@TROYCOOKS]

***** Hey Larry, I truly appreciate the support and glad you came back to leave a comment. You have got to try some of the meats from Lobel's. You know how I am buddy. I only get the best of the best for my cooks and Lobel's is the best meat around. Congratulations again to you and Birdie!! Is she making a little Birdie nest for Wolfie? LOL

[@Juanelo1946]

Troy, those were beautifully plump beef short ribs. I love that squeeze butter! The tiger sauce was terrific! The meat with salt and pepper looked fantastic! The wrapped meat with Loebel's rub had to be magnificent! The Thanks for the greatly-instructive, well-produced video my friend!

[@TROYCOOKS]

Juanelo1946 You are very welcome John. Glad you enjoyed the video. These ribs were magnificent!!! Hope you have a wonderful weekend John!!! Give Miss Lulu a hug for me!

[@davidfbennett]

Thanks for the video, I just purchased some short ribs and needed to see a good method of cooking them, this was just the right thing, I will be doing mine on my grill dome, good job and thanks again.

[@TROYCOOKS]

Hi David, I'm glad you ran across my video. I enjoyed doing this little experiment on video. I bet your short ribs are going to be fantastic brother! Thanks so much for watching and commenting! Happy cooking!

[@freedo64]

I did my beef ribs for three hrs at 250 degrees. When I went out to check them and wrap them I discovered they were done! I was using a Masterbuilt electric smoker so I don’t know if this affected the cooking time. I am mediately wrap them and one hour later unwrapped them and they were very good. Had a little bit of chew to them, But we’re still very tasty. Going to definitely try this again, but with a little more monitoring. Thanks for the informative video!

[@LumberjackPa]

Wonderful cook and informational video as usual. Thanks for sharing.

[@TROYCOOKS]

LumberjackPa Thanks, great to hear from you again!!! Glad you enjoyed the video and I appreciate you watching. I like it when my experiments turn out good!!! LOL

[@mike197019]

love your videos T-Roy, you are a natural

[@klc317]

Both look great to me. I always was impressed with your backyard/pool/patio area Very nice looking place you have! I do enjoy some good rubs and sauces but once in awhile some simple salt/pepper is great too.

[@TROYCOOKS]

klc317 Thank you so much! We spend a lot of time out back cooking and playing in the pool, so we made it real comfortable and nice out there. I appreciate you checking out the video and hope you have a wonderful weekend!!

[@samhane11]

Great video as usual T.I learned several things from you and a shout out to Malcolm Reed. Thanks for sharing and taking time to do these videos.

[@TROYCOOKS]

Hi Ben, I appreciate the feedback buddy and thanks very much for watching! I'm glad I could help you out with some ideas about BBQ. Cheers!

[@johnholla1]

Very good video T-Roy!!! I need to try the wrapped as well.i know people do it with pork so why not with beef. I need to do more cooking video's. it's just by the time I get home it feels like it's bed time lol. love you bro. I hope all is well!

[@TROYCOOKS]

***** Hey John, I appreciate you taking time to stop by and check out the video bro! I know what you mean about not having time to shoot videos or having the energy. I hope you are able to find the time and energy to get going again on your videos. I miss seeing ya brother!!! Love you too bro!!! Have a wonderful Summer!!!

[@dekowi988]

Whoa! Those looks awesome- good cook bud!

[@TROYCOOKS]

Dekowi84 They were some kinda fine! I appreciate you dropping by and hope you have a great weekend!!

[@bigpapi3636]

I like how these were cut- like a thick flanken cut. Perfect portion size. Nice.

[@TROYCOOKS]

Yes indeed, they were nice and thick flanken style. They tasted some kinda fine!!! I appreciate you watching Robert!

[@GallaghersGrub]

Going back and watching your older vids... Man, I may need to make a pilgrimage over to Lobel's here in the city. Great vid, T-roy!

[@BakerBBQ]

Great video! I'm smoking some short ribs in a couple days and this video really helped me decide how to cook them. So...thanks for that!

[@cookingwithtomtom]

Way to go, Troy! Those short ribs looked AWESOME! I may give them a shot tomorrow. I’ll shoot a video to show you the results if I do. Thank you for sharing this recipe with us!

[@TROYCOOKS]

cookingwithtomtom Hey Tom, thank very much! The short ribs were fantastic! I enjoyed both version of them, but the wrapped had so much more flavor, tenderness, and juiciness!!! Of course, the bark on the unwrapped was better IMO. Either way, they were both excellent. I subbed to ya, so I do hope you shoot a video of you doing short ribs tomorrow! Have a great weekend buddy!!! Cheers!!

[@cookingwithtomtom]

T-ROY COOKS Thank you for the sub! I greatly appreciate it! You have a great weekend as well!

[@sonortubelug3853]

Hi T-Roy, sorry for the stupid questions but how do you figure out your temperatures and timings for cuts of meat and what should the thermometer read when you put it in to show it's cooked. Just bought a barrel BBQ to try out some of your recipes. Any help is much appreciated. Mark UK

[@cookiehead89142]

Thanks again T-Roy! They looked amazing!!! The look on your face when you're sampling shows how delicious they must taste. I wrap both beef and pork ribs after smoking for 2 hrs. Wrapping definitely does wonders for tenderizing. I haven't used butter with my beef ribs though. I'll have to try that out. Keep up the great work sir.

[@TROYCOOKS]

James Kastner Yep, they were heavenly James!!! Glad you enjoyed the video and I appreciate you watching!

Nice!! I do full racks of shorts when I can.. Salt and pepper and I'm in love

[@TROYCOOKS]

[@jeber21]

Looks good Troy! I've never done beef ribs before, I may have to get me some!

[@TROYCOOKS]

Jeremiah Johnson Give them a try Jeremiah. Beef ribs are next to the ribeye, so the meat on beef ribs is the same quality of meat you get in a ribeye. Good stuff bro!!!

[@007bondjb]

Them look some fine Boy! Email me one! Lol.... You are so correct too, you must render out the collagen/fat before ribs brisket or butts will get tender. at about 198 to 203ºF it's done. These are also called English cut ribs, They have a fantastic beef flavor... Tiger Sauce rocks! Its great on everything, Deviled eggs, boiled shrimp, etc.... Try dumping a 1/2 bottle on a block of room temp cream cheese, Spread it on Ritz crackers or chips for a party appetizer. You can also make a 50- 50 blend of Tiger & Worcestershire & dump it on a block of CC too.

[@TROYCOOKS]

***** Thanks JB, I learned how to cook from watching you all these years. So, thank you! I do go through a lot of Tiger Sauce. That stuff is really good. I will have to try it on cream cheese. Can't believe I never thought to do that! Thanks for the tip JB! Have a wonderful weekend my friend!!!

[@DannyJock]

Excellent editing! Looks delicious. Wife and I just had a baby boy!

[@TROYCOOKS]

Danny Jock Thanks Danny, I appreciate the kind words about the editing. The short ribs were excellent!! Thank you so much for stopping by and checking out the video. And congrats on the baby boy!!!

[@SouthernCoastalCookingTM]

Wow both of those looked fantastic for sure

[@TROYCOOKS]

Southern Coastal Cooking ™ You would have really enjoyed either one of them Joe. Both were very tender, but the wrapped ribs had the edge on tenderness. The unwrapped had a better bark though! I wouldn't turn either of them down buddy! LOL

[@grumpyjonze]

great vid, reassured me today for sure! Did these for the first time, nine hours, wrapped at the end to get to 200 - mum n dad were getting impatient! Beautiful smoke ring, great bark, delicious. Cheers Troy!

[@TROYCOOKS]

Howdy, I'm glad I could help you with your cook. My wife tends to rush me when doing those long cooks too!!! LOL Cheers mate!

[@hotmetal459]

I am so glad I ate before watching your videos! Can't wait to fire up the smoker and try what I've learned!

[@TROYCOOKS]

curtiss anderson Glad you ate before watching this video too Curtis. Hope you do fire up your smoker and give this wrapped method a try. It's killer bro!!! Thanks for watching!

[@dlowone]

Thank you sir, they turned out great for me and now are a family favorite

[@TROYCOOKS]

Thanks for the feedback Roberto!!! So happy to hear you and the family really enjoyed making your beef ribs this way. Keep that smoke rollin' brother!!! Cheers, Troy

[@canizalest]

Thanks for the post - Wrapped beef ribs it is for me today!

[@TROYCOOKS]

Hey Tony, how did those ribs turn out brother? I bet they were some fine eating!!! Thanks for watching and have a wonderful week!!! Cheers, Troy

[@PITMASTERX]

Nice one T.. looks relly good. I never wrp these, just might have to change my ways

[@TROYCOOKS]

Pitmaster X Hey Roel, the bark isn't as pronounced when you wrap, but the tenderness and juiciness of the rib is excellent. It's a good trade-off. Give it a shot next time you cook these and I'm sure you will be impressed just as I was! Thanks for watching buddy!!!

[@J.R.Bowlsby]

awesome cook as usual. The Yoder has yet to do anything but impress.

[@TROYCOOKS]

John Bowlsby I'm telling John, I love every piece of meat that has come off that Yoder Wichita. I've tried quite a few well known local BBQ places here in the Austin area and the meat coming off of my Yoder tastes so much better! I have yet to try Aaron Franklin's BBQ though, so cannot comment on that! LOL

[@valcomm5]

Brother. Those short ribs are killer. Flat killer. Excellent video Troy.

[@TROYCOOKS]

Smokes A Rollin Thanks Russ!! How'd ya like that fly-by early in the video? LOL Man, these ribs were outstanding!!! Wish you could have joined me eating them. Hope your muscles are feeling better soon. This heat will kill ya if you aren't careful buddy. Take it easy!!

[@RivetGardener]

Gotta love plain old salt and pepper. That’s how I do my short ribs for the best flavor, brings out the beef taste. That’s why we do short ribs, right? I do admit that tiger sauce is plenty tasty! That’s one beautiful rib you probed…perfectly tender! Oh gads, that juice in the wrapped ones looked fantastic. Loved the harder crust on the un-foiled ones. Excellent taste test, sir! Beautiful barbecue!

[@lumpyq6385]

Great Cook Troy, I like the wrap idea too. The last Beef Ribs I did was on my PBC, I didn't wrap them but wished I had.

[@TROYCOOKS]

Lumpy Q Hey Lumpy, I will wrap from now on. These ribs were fantastic bro!!! Thanks for watching!

[@Psalms144_1_2]

Hey brother, good grilling and smoking advise, tried your short ribs recipe, hands down on the wrapped, took me 6 hours, but well worth the time and beer. good job. Ray

[@TROYCOOKS]

Hey Ray, I'm glad you gave it a try. I love those longer cooks too. I appreciate the feedback brother! Keep that smoke rollin'!!!!

Making me really hungry, T-roy! Those short ribs came out perfect brother!

Great recipe! I made a few modifications, but followed the cooking method and it was almost as good as The Salt Lick! Thank you for the great video's! Cheers!!

[@NoHippieBBQCooking]

Man, that looked awesome. I wanted to take a bite when they were still in the smoker. I've never used the butter, I may try that.

[@TROYCOOKS]

No Hippie BBQ & Cooking They were terrific Lyle. Hope you give the squeeze butter a try. Really good stuff on smoked meat. I always use it on my pork ribs! Thanks for stopping by for a visit my friend!!!

[@boatnerhowell9760]

How about the bark? The unwrapped looked like a darker bark. Maybe wrapping a bit later or using butcher paper instead of aluminum foil. Of course I bow to your expertise as I'm just an armchair quarterback who is about to get his own experience. Thank you for your excellent video.

[@miggsy21ace93]

Thanks for the video. I'll be making these tomorrow

[@rugger104]

Hey Troy- My family and I absolutely loved the Fillet's I purchased from Lobel's. Best steaks I have ever made myself. I cooked them rare to med rare and they melt in your mouth like butter. I ordered the USDA Prime short Ribs as well which tasted really good but I could not get the desired tenderness after wrapping. I couldn't fault the product but not sure what I could done differently. Thanks!

[@tangojoe9694]

Right on Troy - looking damn good. Looks like we need to do a comparison test over this way real soon.

[@TROYCOOKS]

Tango Joe Sounds like a great idea Joe. Thanks for stopping by brother!!! Maybe you can kidnap me from Keith's at Labor Day? LOL See ya soon!!!

[@tangojoe9694]

I'll kidnap Karen, then you can come look for her.

[@TROYCOOKS]

Tango Joe Oh, I see how you are! You'd better save me some Long Island BBQ!!!

[@NikonPhotoHawk]

Well Troy, I can see why you like your Offset so much... it's a Yoder! I just have a run of the mill Oklahoma Joe Longhorn that I picked up used (used 4 times before the guy sold it). I does okay, but mine won't hold heat as well as yours. That's a finely machined high quality Offset Smoker made from the finest precision-made components.... what a sweet smoker! The Yoders are the Cadillacs of Offsets. My ribs... I like the 3, 2 , 1 method. On for three hours, on again wrapped for 2... then on untapped for one more hours. During the last hour I'll add BBQ sauce if I'm doing the Ribs BBQ'ed. Often I make them pain. I'm a simple rub kinda of guy too... often just salt & pepper or mild all-purpose rub with salt and black pepper. Have a great weekend buddy, and thanks for another informative video...

[@TROYCOOKS]

[@BadBeastBarbecue]

Great cook Troy. I agree, I would wrap the short ribs also, they look much more tender then those that were not wrapped. I started to pick up some Tiger sauce when I was home on the 4th, just forgot to swing by the store on the way out of town. Next time I am in Baton Rouge I have to pick up a few items

[@TROYCOOKS]

Good review. The one that wasn't wrapped looked better with that little bit of black bark on it. Man I love beef ribs...

[@BIG50LEE]

Cheers T-roy - nice informative post - i must say i prefer wrapped ribs no i have tried them

[@thebaldchef14]

I've never tried Tiger sauce,I have seen it in a specialty food store, and always wondered. But back to the video these beef short ribs all wrapped up look absolutely awesome, T Roy you certainly are becoming the KZbin master of grilling, you hooked up with Lobel's of New York. Lucky duck!

[@TROYCOOKS]

The Bald Chef Yeah, they like my videos over at Lobel's. I love getting to use their fine meats in my videos. It's a Win-Win for Ole T-Roy!!!! Come on down and show me a thing or two Glen!!! You blow circles around me in the kitchen! Thanks for watching my friend!!!

[@thebaldchef14]

T-ROY COOKS I'm not sure about all that, but I wish you the best of luck. I think you have done quite well here my friend, and it couldn't be bestowed on a nicer guy. Cook on!

[@bmartin2949]

Those ribs were looking mighty fine, like everything you cook. I gotta get some of that rub and that tiger sauce you're always talking about. It's coincidence that I had short rib yesterday, and i'll be it would've been even more amazing if i'd had those two on it. Keep up the great work you do sir!

[@TROYCOOKS]

B Martin You have got to try the Tiger sauce. I love that stuff on all the meats I cook. It gives the meat a little tang of vinegar with some heat, but it's not overpowering. It's great on seafood too. I use it to marinate shrimp for about 10 mins. The shrimp turn out fabulous!!! Thanks for watching!

[@hotspotbbq8465]

Great comparison, wrapping is the only way to go for super tender meats of any kind.

[@crisworkizer1523]

Nice cook Troy. dont think you can get anything,but good from Lobel's. I like wrapping ribs as well I just fell it puts moisture back into the meat.we all have had to ramp up the heat and no foil for a fast cook,but there is a difference in the way they turn out. great comparison.

[@TROYCOOKS]

Cris Workizer Hey Cris, the only downside of wrapping that I find is the bark is not as pronounced. But, I can live with that if the meat is super tender and juicy! LOL Thanks for watching brother!!!

[@gettingoutwiththekids]

I just did a video cooking beef ribs and didnt wrap. Initially they were tender but once they cut up they started to dry out. Defo be wrapping next time.

[@Texas2.5]

T-Roy - could you cook the flanken style beef ribs individually like this instead of as a whole plate? I miscommunicated with my butcher and he cut them up for me instead of giving them to me whole 😣 I have four beautiful, meaty ribs in the fridge.

[@PapaKryptoss]

Awesome sauce there.

[@vtphan2012]

how long did you smoke before wrapping? and how long do did you wrap? Thanks.

[@TROYCOOKS]

Hi there, this video was shot almost 2 yrs ago, so I cannot remember exactly, but I think the ribs took around 5 hrs at 250F. I think I wrapped about mid-way through the cook. Sorry I cannot be more precise. Thanks for watching!

[@vtphan2012]

Thank you.

[@tgwoolshire]

What is the purpose of wrapping for a portion. of the cook?...just wondering cause I've never wrapped my pork ribs and am about to do some beef shorts....thx

[@TROYCOOKS]

Sorry for the late response! Wrapping will help speed up the cook and help keep the meat moist. I usually only wrap if I'm pressed for time. I prefer the bark on unwrapped meat.

[@tgwoolshire]

thanks...I wrapped the last hour n a half....perfect!

[@CentralTexasGrilling]

Damn those are some good looking ribs Troy! Excellent cook!

Dang! I wouldn't turn down either version of those short ribs Troy! Looking killer brother! Now I'm wondering how the unwrapped ribs would have turned out on the Big Joe? Do you think it would have made a difference? Either way, a big thumbs up!

Smoky Ribs I bet they would have been a little more moist on the Big Joe, but still not nearly as moist and tender as the wrapped ribs. I was happy to try them both out for everyone. The dogs enjoyed the bones too!!! LOL Thanks for checking out the video Rus!!! Have a great weekend brother!!
