Came here to say the same. Really appreciated the humility about the garlic. I've been obsessively watching smoked short rib videos because none of the cookbooks by famous Kettle manufacturer chef or PBS cooking show chefs that I've collected over 20 years had the right recipe for everyday grocery store short ribs. Wound up improvising. Salt, pepper garlic & onion powder, 2 hour rest followed by 3.5 hours @ 350 on a Weber kettle. I thought they turned out fine, but I do wish this vid had popped up when I first started searching.
I love your videos. Such a chill mellow humor to go along with it. Plus the serene background music. You really put an “average joe” spin on everything and I really enjoy it. Thanks for your content.
I would leave the residual meat on the bones. Use the smoked bones to cook your beans with. The bean will get a nice charred, smoky flavor. Put them over rice, a few pieces of the rib meat, some home made hot sauce, a fried egg on top of everything and you got a heck of a meal. Nice video. Thanks for tips.
I know this was on the offset, but I'd like to say the main reason I subscribe is because you most often just use the weber kettle,which is what I have. I'd love to see a reverse sear burger video soon.
I was trying to watch this last night but i went to a sox game. But man oh man, im glad i remembered to watch this today. Wow, my mouth just had a juicealanche. I gotta say, i really enjoy your videos. But most importantly, i love how on alot of your videos you make your own rub. You make each rub specific to that meal. Great job.
I've watched youre videos for more than 5 hours in the last few weeks. And i must say, you are a real bbq boss man. All those tasty recipes and useful tips. Love that! Thanks mate 👌🏻👍🏻 Greetz from the Netherlands
Hi RY, that's some good looking grub right there! When roasting the garlic I chop the whole head in half then wrap it in foil, it can take the couple of hours heat then no prob. At the end u can just grab the half head and squish the roasted garlic out. Comes out like a pulp.
I love your honesty. Just like me. Cooked my very first brisket last weekend. Could not keep the temps balanced. Burned the ends 2 inches each side but the rest was tender and juicy. Learned not to start cooking a brisket from $170 Grade A meat. Thanks for sharing St. I'm not alone anymore. 😊
Got over Covid a month ago.. worst part is not being able to smell or taste all of my smokes.. that looks amazing and is what I’m gonna do for my gals birthday party this weekend..
I plan to do some beef short ribs tomorrow. They are currently in the frig with just salt/pepper (I did slather them with Worcestershire sauce for the seasoning to stick). I don't have big russet potatoes, but I do have some small red potatoes that I will do the same, of course with the garlic butter! Can't wait! I will say that rather than just adding water to the pan with the ribs, I'm going to do a small mixture of red wine and water just to give them an even more richness! Can't wait!
Hi Ryan, today I used my Weber kettle for the first time so I decided this is want I want to cook, still waiting the ribs to get done, thanks for your videos, greetings from México city
Wow Ry that looked fantastic. My wife makes garlic ranch mashed potatoes that are fantastic. I think I'm gonna try your recipe for the potatoes. Thanks for Sharing Ry have a great day
I rewatch your vids over and over, I have an Oklahoma Joe Highland offset myself, I love it. Do you still have yours? Maybe you passed it down for someone to learn on. That would be understandable as you grow in your own ambition.
HEY RY, I usually write a long comment but buddy I am lost for words my friend, those Beef Short Ribs are the best that I have seen on You Tube, no kidding all I can say man is you rule RY. AWESOME JOB MY FRIEND. GOD BLESS YOU.!!!!
My compliments to you on separating your short ribs prior to smoking. First thing one has to do is separate those 3 big short ribs. Why? Because this way 1) you get fantastic bark on 5 sides 2) all the excess fat can escape 3) you get seasoning on 5 sides. One does not usually need to spray or wrap short ribs because they have so much fat. Yes back ribs need to be wrapped. Throw away your thermometer because at 220 degrees this procedure works perfect every time. Put a light amount of BBQ sauce on back and short ribs. (Separate short ribs first) Apply rub. Set temp at 220. Stand up each short rib on its bone. Back ribs sit on their bones. After 3 hours squirt BBQ on the back ribs using a condiment squirt bottle and put them meat facing down on the aluminum foil and wrap tight and put them meat facing down back into the smoker for 5 more hours. 8 hours total. Short ribs wet on all 5 sides of each of the 3 ribs with BBQ sauce and put them back into the smoker for 4 more hours open (total of 7 hours) and now you get perfection. And you got perfection your way!!
I made beef ribs yesterday, Canada Day, and regret not putting them in a covered foil pan to finish. They were tasty, but not quite as tender as I'd like them to be. was my first time though. next time will be better! Thanks for the tips Ry :)
Great video! This is my favorite things to eat....MEAT & POTATOES. Love the way you prepared the potatoes, I'm gonna have to try that. What is the approximate cost of beef ribs?
I am going to try those smashed potatoes, but after I smoke them like you did. Then, I am going to put them under the broiler for a few minutes, just long enough for the butter a garlic to brown, but not burn.
Ry, you exploited two of my greatest weaknesses (Beef Short Ribs and Smashed Potatoes). Unfortunately for me, I have chicken thighs cooking in the oven for dinner. What a bummer lol. You even got an endorsement from your wife! Awesome video, Ry!
The Highland is a great consumer grade offset when you give it a few modifications -- baffle plate and cook chamber door gasket. It's served me well for over 2 years. I'll eventually move up simply for more capacity :)
Hi Ry, I am in Australia and have been following you and your Weber Menus for a few years. Everything you do is just great. I have a 1993 Red Kettle still going strong and use it regularly. I have made friends with 2 people who run my local Weber dealership and have invited them for a Weber Dinner at my home in a few weeks. I will be smoking and braising Beef Short Ribs with garlic mashed potato, baby carrots, and green beans. What would you suggest as a clever starter to serve before the ribs to impress my guests. I can do something quite separate as I also have Weber Go Anywhere as well as a Gas Grill. Perhaps something really tasty but not too large to spoil their appetite for the ribs. Your advice would be really appreciated. Maybe some seafood or prawn/shrimp kebabs?? Please help.
Great video!! I did a pork shoulder last night on my pellet smoker and it was amazing! I often have a hard time keeping it moist and juicy once I have it for leftovers. Any suggestions on what to do?
Hey I was wondering if you can do a video on celery seeds. There used to make a smoke ring so its added to alot of rubs. I was wondering if you can grind them up and see if you can get it to give you a smoke ring in your electric smoker. As electric smokers are infamous for not being able to create a natural smoke ring. Love the vids as always a pleasure to watch
Oh no you didn't!!! Wow Ry... that looks incredible. I never thought about smoking short ribs bc it can be a tricky meat. Usually braise them in the oven. Great job. The potatoes look delicious as well.
If I had a dollar for everything I’ve messed up learning smoke food I’d be on some white sand beach in a hammock with a little umbrella cold drink in my hand. Alas, I’ll be on a lawnmower in 100% humidity today. We can dream can’t we?
Fixin to call the butcher and order some beef short ribs. Those look really, really good Ry. Thanks for the video. As you said the bark has to be there for great flavor.
Good morning Ry! I just picked up two racks of beef short ribs to smoke this weekend. Would you recommend that I cut the racks in half to make them smaller Or do you think I could just leave them as they are and smoke them?
So I notice when you set a goal temperature that before you add charcoal the temperature goes down and you’re ok with that. I was trying to keep the temperature at “250” the whole time. Based on your vids, it’s ok to let the grill reach the goal temp and then let it gradually drop? Or do you constantly make sure your cooking at “250” the entire cook?
I rarely obsess over temp anymore. If my target is 250 I don't usually worry about adding more fuel until I'm near 225, and on the opposite side if it spikes up a bit, which happens, I don't get too bothered unless it climbs over 50 above my target for more than a few minutes :)
Brisket on a stick! That's a great way to put that Ry! I'm really liking the garlic butter smash potatoes to! Great video
Don’t insult short ribs by equating them to brisket.
Came here to say the same. Really appreciated the humility about the garlic.

I love this guys videos, he's so relatable and non-elitist. Great cooking.
Thank you :)
Absolutely!!
Ry is thee man!!!
What is a non elitist? Odd adjective.
Ry you are the Bob Ross of smoked meats, man.
Brisket on a stick = meat candy!! Doing these on a Weber Kettle taught me a lot about temp control! Keep the videos coming!!
Ry for President of the regular guy grilling world😎
I love your videos. Such a chill mellow humor to go along with it. Plus the serene background music. You really put an “average joe” spin on everything and I really enjoy it. Thanks for your content.
Thanks so much. I appreciate the kind words :)
Fired up the beef short ribs today on my LG 1200 pellet grill. Your video was excellent. Thank you!
I would leave the residual meat on the bones. Use the smoked bones to cook your beans with. The bean will get a nice charred, smoky flavor. Put them over rice, a few pieces of the rib meat, some home made hot sauce, a fried egg on top of everything and you got a heck of a meal.
Nice video. Thanks for tips.
And a nice Dram of your favorite Bourbon
Thanks for the idea. . But I used yukon gold potatoes and made smoked potato salad with bacon. Turned out awesome...
Hockey pucking around. Must of been watching the playoffs. Not bad for a San Diego guy! Looks incredible.
Not SD, but close :)
Love this recipe, going to try this on my new pit barrel smoker . Keep up the great bbq.
Excellent job. My mouth is watering. Trying this recipe for sure!
New to this channel, never tried smoking before, my mouth is literally watering watching these videos, all the best from the UK 🇬🇧
Thanks!
I'm making these this weekend. Great video! Thank you.
Hey buddy.. I just want to let you know that I really enjoy your smoke cook videos RY 🤙 temperature and time is the key!!
I know this was on the offset, but I'd like to say the main reason I subscribe is because you most often just use the weber kettle,which is what I have. I'd love to see a reverse sear burger video soon.

That looks amazing. I will try this as soon as I have a free weekend.
I've been wanting to smoke some beef ribs for a while... Now I HAVE TO! Awesome work Ry!
I'll be doing this recipe very short ly. Thanks
Those ribs look amazing. Mandy says we have to try the smashed potatoes now. And I agree with her.
They're a fun way to serve regular old potatoes :)
I've watched youre videos for more than 5 hours in the last few weeks.

Hi Ry those are some mighty fine looking beef short ribs and that roasted garlic mashed absolutely delicious combination.
You deserve way more subs. Thanks for the videos, I’ve learned quite a bit from you. Appreciate it.
I appreciate that!

Ribs are looking good , great idea on the potatoes. Will be trying that shortly. So many things that will go with.
Very true. I'd eat it on ice cream :)
Got over Covid a month ago.. worst part is not being able to smell or taste all of my smokes.. that looks amazing and is what I’m gonna do for my gals birthday party this weekend..
Looks great I'm definitely going to have to try the potato idea.

That’s a great first cook :)
Love the video. Mistakes are part of learning.
I love that he says ‘smashed potatoes’ instead of ‘mashed potatoes’
Great vid, RY! Mighty fine looking ribs 🤤
Hadn’t finished the video when I commented. Now that I have watched until the end I see there’s a distinction between mashed and smashed potatoes! 😲😲😲
I love beef short ribs you did a wonderful job wow 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼thank you for your sharing your recipe 😋 Gorgeous
Looking like Sunday dinner thanks
Any way you have a document for your recipe/process on those short ribs and potatoes? They look AMAZING. Definitely don't want to mess this up.
The video is the recipe. It’s very easy, but also remember to enjoy the process 😊
Awesome video as usual. Love me some beef ribs and I am absolutely going to be making those potatoes. Thanks for the video and recipe man.
Great job Ry, your beef short ribs looked delicious 😋 gonna have to try your smashed potato recipe. Thank you for sharing
Thanks!
Why i love this channel
Thank you! I am making this today!
Wow Ry that looked fantastic. My wife makes garlic ranch mashed potatoes that are fantastic. I think I'm gonna try your recipe for the potatoes. Thanks for Sharing Ry have a great day
Garlic ranch sounds great!
Great video Ry. I’m definitely gonna attempt those garlic smashed potatoes. Thank you. 👍🏻
I've never had beef short ribs. Dang I need those in my life. Look good Ry I will have to try this.
You need to try some good legit beef ribs, pork ribs can’t touch it.
Dude! That is perfect. Going to have to try this.
Great job Ry
I rewatch your vids over and over, I have an Oklahoma Joe Highland offset myself, I love it. Do you still have yours? Maybe you passed it down for someone to learn on. That would be understandable as you grow in your own ambition.
I actually gave it to a buddy when I got the Lone Star Grillz offset 😊
HEY RY, I usually write a long comment but buddy I am lost for words my friend, those Beef Short Ribs are the best that I have seen on You Tube, no kidding all I can say man is you rule RY. AWESOME JOB MY FRIEND. GOD BLESS YOU.!!!!

They were on for 3 hours.

Looked delicious!! Only thing missing is some grilled asparagus spears. But hey these looked good by themselves!!
I made beef ribs yesterday, Canada Day, and regret not putting them in a covered foil pan to finish.
They were tasty, but not quite as tender as I'd like them to be. was my first time though. next time will be better!
Thanks for the tips Ry :)
Your awesome great recipes
Gotta love some short ribs Ry! Another great one to do like this is ox tails. Man those things are awesome. Great cook and love your work my man...
Oh I love oxtails. I think I did a video with those AND short ribs at the same time :)
@@CookingWithRy I did them a little while ago in a video making it into a keto style sandwich. VERY tasty. ua-cam.com/video/CvbxT10Prpk/v-deo.html
I have these on my smoker right now, they come off in 30 minutes. They look amazing! Tomorrow is the smoked meatloaf.
My wife saw me watching this video and accused me of watching "food porn"
She isn't wrong!
Beautiful bark Ry. Looks perfect. I’ve done that to my garlic too lol.
Yeah, it got away from me :)
Can’t wait to see you Thursday on the Hot Seat!
Great video! This is my favorite things to eat....MEAT & POTATOES. Love the way you prepared the potatoes, I'm gonna have to try that. What is the approximate cost of beef ribs?
The price varies so much by location that it’s hard to say.
Ry, yet another one hit out of the park !! Doing beef back ribs tomorrow myself, along with ( Drum roll ) Smoked Tator Tots.
I looooooooooooooove tater tots :)
That tasting eye roll always gets me 🤣 looks good Ry. I want to try something like this on the ol kettle
I've done 'em on the kettle before and they turn out fantastic :)
Thank you for this video. How long did you grill the potato halves?
Just until a bit crispy. A few minutes :)
@@CookingWithRy Thank you very much
Really nice cook.
I love short ribs and these look amazing!
I am going to try those smashed potatoes, but after I smoke them like you did. Then, I am going to put them under the broiler for a few minutes, just long enough for the butter a garlic to brown, but not burn.
Gonna get me some short ribs!!! Great video Ry.
Thank you :)
beef short ribs! Oh ya! On the stick burner no less. The potatoes were almost the star. =)
Those potatoes were almost the lead player :)
Man o man, those potatoes look good. Work some diced, grilled onions into those. I bet that would be amazing.
a meal fit for the Royal Family.I say Governor all you needed was a spot of tea
This recipe looks fantastic. Can’t wait to make this on my Weber kettle. I can’t get the Trader Joe’s what can I use instead?
Any all purpose seasoning you like will be a good substitute :)
Ry, you exploited two of my greatest weaknesses (Beef Short Ribs and Smashed Potatoes). Unfortunately for me, I have chicken thighs cooking in the oven for dinner. What a bummer lol. You even got an endorsement from your wife! Awesome video, Ry!
Yeah it;s nice when she calls it :)
I love your channel where can I get a brush like that at
I'm not sure which brush you're talking about.
The brush you used to barbecue the ribs with
That was an absolutely phenomenal cook bro looked very delicious
Thank you :)
Definitely trying the potatoes. 🤤
Awesome Ry! Those looked so good with that bark. I’m trying those this weekend
Nothing wrong with adding a little garlic smoke :)
Man!!! Awesome video and cook!! I've been looking for a nice stick burner but they take months to make. How strongly do you stand behind that offset?
The Highland is a great consumer grade offset when you give it a few modifications -- baffle plate and cook chamber door gasket. It's served me well for over 2 years. I'll eventually move up simply for more capacity :)
i like short ribs braised in red wine and vegetables!
Yeah those are fantastic :)
they look amazing !

Great video!! I did a pork shoulder last night on my pellet smoker and it was amazing! I often have a hard time keeping it moist and juicy once I have it for leftovers. Any suggestions on what to do?
You can try injecting but I find that keeping it low and slow, even after wrapping, helps a great deal :)
Once you remove the meat from the smoker or grill, always let it rest before cutting into it so the juices can redistribute throughout the meat.
great video!
tried making short ribs by smoking them for my first time they came out tough
I like your channel. You do a lot of the same things I do, or would do. Great job!

Oh no you didn't!!! Wow Ry... that looks incredible. I never thought about smoking short ribs bc it can be a tricky meat. Usually braise them in the oven. Great job. The potatoes look delicious as well.
I've actually had better luck smoking them than braising. Surprised me that it works out that way :)
Another Great Video Ryan! The ribs looked great and I will have to try those potatoes! 💡
Thank you!
Nice video. To get rid of lumps in brown sugar, put a piece of bread in your BS container for a few hours (it works, trust me).
If I had a dollar for everything I’ve messed up learning smoke food I’d be on some white sand beach in a hammock with a little umbrella cold drink in my hand. Alas, I’ll be on a lawnmower in 100% humidity today. We can dream can’t we?
LOL. I’d have more money than you :)
Fixin to call the butcher and order some beef short ribs. Those look really, really good Ry. Thanks for the video. As you said the bark has to be there for great flavor.
Well Ry... You have convinced me to try short ribs. I have never had them except braised, and I never did care for them.
They can be so tender and beefy. Truly like brisket on a stick :)
Have you ever tried Henry Weinhards vanilla, cherry, or orange cream soda
No, not really a cream soda fan.
Awesome job RY !!
Good morning Ry! I just picked up two racks of beef short ribs to smoke this weekend. Would you recommend that I cut the racks in half to make them smaller Or do you think I could just leave them as they are and smoke them?
I personally like when they are cut into individual ribs, but a nice half rack sure looks nice too :)
How long were the potatoes on the smoker wrapped in foil?
About 3 hours :)
@@CookingWithRy Thanks! Made my own fire box tonight based on your video. Appreciate ya!
Awesome!
where do you find your beef short ribs......i dont see those in the supermarkets here
In my area usually at Costco or Smart & Final, though the supermarkets occasionally have them.
Looks awesome.
Ry where do you get all your meat ? I can never find the cuts of meat you smoke
I have a couple local stores that have butchers, and I also get many cuts at Costco or Smart & Final :)
I could literally smell this video
So I notice when you set a goal temperature that before you add charcoal the temperature goes down and you’re ok with that. I was trying to keep the temperature at “250” the whole time. Based on your vids, it’s ok to let the grill reach the goal temp and then let it gradually drop? Or do you constantly make sure your cooking at “250” the entire cook?
I rarely obsess over temp anymore. If my target is 250 I don't usually worry about adding more fuel until I'm near 225, and on the opposite side if it spikes up a bit, which happens, I don't get too bothered unless it climbs over 50 above my target for more than a few minutes :)
GREAT! now i need a smoker...
