Recipe Description

Preheat your grill or smoker to around 225-250 degrees Fahrenheit. If smoking with wood chips, be sure to have soaked them in advance. You may need to separate the ribs into two pieces to fit them into your smokebox, as we did. If you are smoking on top of your grill, you can omit this step.In order to prepare the ribs, trim off as much excess fat as you can, leaving between 1/2 and 1/4-inch on the ribs. Also trim the tough material on top of the rib bones on the back side, called a silverskin, it makes separating the ribs and enjoying them more difficult after they are cooked.

Salt and Pepper the ribs as you would a steak, then apply your favorite steak rub...liberally. It may look like a lot, but after several hours in a smoker or on a grill, the rendering of fat as well as the shear mass of this hunk of meat, is going to need every bit of that seasoning.Wrap the ribs in foil and you are now ready to put them in the smoker or on the grill.

Smoke the ribs for about 6-8 hours, turning them every 2 hours when you normally check your wood chips. If you are using a box smoker like in the picture, be sure to place a steam table pan in between the heat source and the ribs. There is a lot of fat on this type of cut that will render out when cooking, and the risk of fire becomes great. In the picture above, the ribs on top and the brisket underneath produced about two quarts of liquid fat. Not the sort of thing you want igniting before your cookout.When the ribs are done, slice them into individual portions and serve.

As you can see from the picture above, the meat on the dino ribs contracts as it cooks, creating it's own carrying handle. We like to serve them with sliced brisket and a little cherry bourbon bbq sauce for dipping. Be sure to save those bones, as they make great stock.
