How to make Carnivore Smoked Beef Ribs
Making Carnivore Smoked Beef Ribs is simpler than you might think. The process involves seasoning the ribs, preparing your smoker, and ensuring you baste them just right to keep them moist. Here’s a quick overview of the steps you’ll take to achieve mouth-watering results.
Ingredients
To create these delicious ribs, you will need the following:
- 3 pounds beef ribs
- A generous amount of salt for seasoning
- 1 cup beef broth
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
If you’re looking for variations, you can consider using different types of vinegar for unique flavor notes.
Directions
- Season the ribs generously with salt on all sides. For a better bark, salt them an hour ahead and let them sit uncovered in the fridge.
- Turn your pellet grill to smoke mode and allow it to run with the door open until the initial heavy smoke clears, which usually takes about 5 minutes.
- After 30 minutes, adjust the heat to 250 degrees and let the ribs cook for 2 hours.
- Combine the beef broth and apple cider vinegar in a spray bottle or a small bowl. After 2 hours, spray or baste the ribs with this mixture until fully coated.
- Continue cooking until the internal temperature reaches 195-203°F and the meat pulls easily away from the bones.
