On the grill

Thick beef short ribs are brisket in miniature: heavy connective tissue that needs hours at low heat. Indirect at 110–130 °C until the meat pulls back from the bone.

Expect a stall on the way up, same as brisket. Wrap if the bark is dark enough and push through rather than raising the heat.

This takes hours. The fire is barely alive and the meat is never over it.

Smoke it with oak, hickory or mesquite.
