beef essentials: short rib dry rub

How To Make beef essentials: short rib dry rub

• 
  Step 1
  PREP/PREPARE
• 
  Step 2
  This is not a rub for pork… pork likes sweet. This is a rub for beef, and do not be afraid of all the heat in the recipe. It mellows out as the ribs smoke, and produces an awesome flavor, and a great bark.

  Step 3
  Here is what I do. I rub some salt into the ribs, cover with cling wrap, and place into the fridge overnight, or up to 24 hours. I then, take the ribs, rub with the spice mixture, and throw them into a 225f (107c) smoker until cooked… That may take from 5 – 10 hours; depending on the thickness of the ribs, I usually do not use a BBQ sauce on beef ribs, but that is up to you.
