Smoked Short Ribs w/Maple Guiness Glaze

Smoked Short Ribs w/Maple Guiness Glaze

Instructions

1
Shmear meat side of ribs with mustard then sprinkle BBQ rub over all sides (top, sides, bottom). Place on rack that rests over a sheet pan, uncovered in the fridge overnight.
2
Heat smoker to 225 degrees and add whatever wood chips you desire (hickory and oak are nice) and place cold ribs in center of smoker and smoke for 5 hours. Baste with glaze every half hour.

In that time the meat will begin to shrink off the bones and a gentle bark with begin to form. (Internal temp of ribs should be around 140-150 degrees).
4
In a roasting pan, big enough to hold the ribs, scatter the garlic, celery, onion, and carrots over the bottom and pour 1 c water into pan.
5
After 5 hours remove the ribs from the smoker and place rib side down on top of vegetables, brush with the glaze and cover with foil.
6
Place in 300-degree oven and cook until internal temperature of the ribs in the thickest part reads 195-200 degrees.
7
Take roasting pan out of oven and remove foil — based again with glaze.
8
Turn oven up to 400 degrees and place ribs back in oven basting every 5 minutes until a nice crust is formed.
9
Remove roasting pan, lift ribs out of pan, place on cutting board and tent with foil for 30 minutes. Then cut between each rib and serve.
