danielc Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 I'm trying short ribs for the first time on the grill. I guess the part I'm unsure of is how to tell when they are ready. From what I read they will get tender, but if you keep going they will get tougher again as opposed to getting more tender and mushy. Is they correct? So how can I know when they are as tender as they will get?Thx!DanSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pesto3 Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 I would love to help. I have done short ribs a couple of time with great results. However, I think that was just a fluke! I can't really remember what I did. I'm pretty sure I took them to around 200-205it and they rested them in foil. Good luck!Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk danielc 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pesto3 Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 I do remember they cooked a lot faster then I thought they would. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk danielc 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danielc Posted September 4, 2016 Author Share Posted September 4, 2016 These have been going about 4.5 hrs and were only at around 160. Wrapped them to speed things up. Will check them in a bit. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

firenfood Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 I just finished eating some tonight they were 4 bone racks and they took about 7 hrs to be 200 ish and probe tender. These have got to be one of the best things in the world .Sent from my XT1055 using Tapatalk aljoseph and danielc 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3547fl Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 Those look like they came out great, have not done those for quite sometime. Need to do some soon, and they do take time to cook that's for sure. danielc 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsarcher Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 Those short ribs look fantastic. What temp did you pull them at? danielc 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danielc Posted September 5, 2016 Author Share Posted September 5, 2016 Those short ribs look fantastic. What temp did you pull them at?After about 3.5 hrs they were only around 160 or so so I wrapped them with a bit of apple juice and let the temp climb to maybe 270 and left them another hour. After that I checked a few and they were about 200 so I pulled them off and let them sit in the foil for maybe 10 or 15 mins. They might have gotten more tender with a bit more time but they were good. They had a bite to the meat, not melt in your mouth, but not rubbery.

Rak73 Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 They look great Daniel! Obviously I'm a little late to the party, but you can tell they are done when the meat pulls away and the bone can almost just be pulled right out Guess what i have going on the grill today! danielc 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
