Beef Short Ribs are beefy, rich, and packed with flavor. And cooking them out on the smoker brings even more flavor to the party.
The first thing you want to do is get some seasoning on the beef short ribs. I keep it real simple with just Salt, Black Pepper, and Garlic. Coat all sides of the beef Short Ribs with a good dose of the rub and let them hang out for a short while at room temperature. Here’s a good time to fire up the smoker.
For this cook I’m using my Ole Hickory pit and it needs to be running at 275 degrees. For smoke, throw on a couple chunks of seasoned hickory. You can prepare this Beef Short Ribs recipe on any pit just prepare for a 4-5 hours indirect cook with temps running 275-300 degrees.
When the smoker is up and running, place each piece of Beef Short Ribs directly on the rack and get the lid closed. They’ll need to smoke for 2-3 hours to absorb some flavor and turn a beautiful brown color on the Beef Short Rib. We’re shooting for the color of a good beef brisket.
The meat on Beef Short Ribs is surrounded by fat and tough connective tissue, and it takes a long time to render during cooking. This is why Beef Short Ribs are a perfect meat to cook low and slow.
As the fat breaks down, it surrounds the meat and turns into a sort of “meat butter” which gives the Beef Short Ribs its’ richness. To help this process along I use a braising liquid filled with herbs and vegetables to create even more flavor. You’ll need a large pan for this job.
Beef Short Rib Braising Liquid:
- 3 Carrots
- 3 Ribs of Celery
- 1 Onion
- 4 Cups Beef Stock
- 2 Cups Red Wine
- 8 Cloves Garlic
- 6oz Tomato Paste
- 2 Sprigs Rosemary
- 1 Bay Leaf
Chop the carrots, celery, and onion into large chunks and add them to the pan. Smash the garlic with your knife and add in with the vegetables. Pour in the beef broth and wine.
I usually don’t measure here just eyeball it; you’ll need about ½ the bottle. Stir in the tomato paste but don’t worry about breaking it up all the way; it will mix in as it cooks. Lastly season with a little more of the AP rub and throw in the rosemary and bay leaf.
Cover the pan with aluminum foil and get it out on the smoker. I want the braising liquid to warm so we’re not adding hot meat to a cool liquid and it speeds up the cooking process a little. Usually this pan goes on the pit about 2 hours into the cook. It’s a good time to peak at the short ribs and see how the color is coming.
At the 3 hour mark the Beef Short Ribs have plenty of brown color all the way around, so they go straight into the liquid. Recover the pan with foil and continue cooking. It’s time to really break down the fat and connective tissue now. It’s also ok if the temperature on your pit goes up a little. I bumped the temp on my Ole Hickory up to 300 degrees.
After an hour in the liquid, check the ribs for tenderness. Use two forks and gently try to separate some of the Beef Short Ribs meat. If you feel any resistance, they need a little more cooking. I’m looking for soft, sponge-like feel. The Beef Short Ribs meat should have almost no resistance coming off the bone. Continue cooking if they’re not quite there. Mine took an additional 30 minutes to get just right.
Once the tenderness is perfect, bring the Beef Short Ribs inside and carefully get them out of the braising liquid and onto a platter. Cover the Beef Short Ribs with foil loosely and let them rest for 10-15 minutes.
Don’t throw away the braising liquid because it makes a wonderful sauce to serve over the short ribs. The vegetables will have cooked almost into a mush but they’ve left behind a ton of flavor. Strain the liquid into a bowl and allow give it just a second to settle.
Most of the fat will rise to the top and you can ladle it off. Now pour the liquid into a small sauce pot and reduce it by half over high heat. It should take about 10 minutes; just enough time for the short ribs to rest.
I serve short ribs family style over a platter of mashed potatoes. Ladle on a good spoon of sauce over each piece and top with a touch of fresh parsley.

Smoked Beef Short Ribs
Malcolm, I just made this today. It was otherworldly! You are the core of so many people’s BBQ journeys. You have made this form of cooking so accessible to so many people. I really can’t say this enough: thank you! So many great recipes, all with Southern charm and a smile. You are a national treasure. As an Upstate New Yorker, you have helped me blow away people who aren’t accustomed to this type of cuisines. Thank you my friend; best wishes to you!
Thanks Malcolm, I made this recipe last weekend and WOW! The sauce was out of this world and the ribs were just like you said fork tender! Thanks again for the recipe and inspiration . Best BBQ channel on UA-cam.
I’ve watch 8-10 videos on how to make these. This is the one I’m going with. I could taste it through the screen.
Prepared these last night per Malcom’s directions and recipe. We had full length ribs vs having them cut in two. My BGE can’t fit the braising pan so after smoking 3 hours on BGE finished off the braising part in the oven at 325 for 2 more hours (covered). Rested 30 minutes. Family said definitely a “10” and my best BGE meal yet. High praise indeed! Thanks Malcom.
Just did some short ribs with Malcom's recipe. A-M-A-ZING!!! Did them on my XL Big Green Egg. Fall off the bone, tender, and the sauce was utter perfection. Thank you, Malcom!
Malcolm this has to be one of my all time favorite recipes, that reduction of the braising liquid is outstanding
Man, I love watching this channel - thanks Malcom.
This video is 4 yrs old I just made it today10/18/20 and hands down of my best cooks ever!!! If you are not grilling/smoking with Mr Reed you are missing out on some good eating
Take a shot of BBQ sauce every time the ol boy says “fooollle”
By far you are the best pit master on UA-cam. Just wish you made vids for frequently.

;o
one of Malcolm's classic recipes. i consider this the quick fix for brisket point when I don't have 18 hours of total prep/cook time to make it. i used an entire bottle of red wine with the beef broth and it was delicious. my favorite part is throwing out the vegetables - like who needs those? 😂
I have made this recipe a couple times, and they turned out awesome. I will say, for the veggies, after they have been strained, put them in a blender and puree them. There is so much flavor from the beef and wine and seasonings that if you add that puree to a basic canned pasta sauce you take it to the next level. Never added to homemade, but would image it would be great as well.
OUTSTANDING!!! I just picked up a tray of short ribs today at Walmart. I'll be following your lead tomorrow. I'll let you know how they turn out. First-timer!
I've been following your videos and making your recipes for years and this has to be one of the best! The amount of flavor that comes out of that reduction is awesome! Keep it up Malcolm.
I need to learn how to hold off clicking on Malcom's channel until I've had lunch. Otherwise, I get too damned hungry to concentrate.
You must be big like him can't wait to eat
I love watching and learning from this guy Malcolm....
Hi Malcolm, I know this recipe has been on your site for a long time, but I just want to say that it is a fantastic way to cook beef short ribs. I have done these several times and do mine in the Weber Kettle with the slow and sear. Like everyone says, the sauce is so tasty. I had some ribs left over from my cook last weekend and made pulled beef Rib sliders. Just steam the left over meat for an hour, pull apart with 2 forks, mix in the hot sauce and into the sliders with some cucumber and served with a side of fries. Great leftovers!!!
This just changed my whole perspective on $#!t. Made my short list of recipes for Spring / Summer. Always just smoked beef ribs normally. That broth / vegetable concoction looks crucial. I can attribute most of my smoking abilities to this UA-cam channel. Hell yea, Malcom! Thanks!
I used this recipe last week for my first time doing beef ribs--all I can say is "wow!" Instead of the wine, I used pomegranate juice and the liquid was heavenly as were the ribs.
I followed this last night for some friends during the football game. Came out awesome. Nice moist and tender. Fall off the bone. Took me just about 4.5 hours total cook time. I didn't do something right with the sauce but we ate it without any sauce. Smoked with pecan wood too.
Those ribs look tender, moist and tasty. Keep these videos going Malcom!
Thanks Malcolm. Did this recipe just added ox tails to the short ribs and it came out great on the weber kettle. Over some collards, rice, and jiffy. You know what it is. Thanks again.
That sounds SO GOOD!! TY Man.
I like these older more detailed videos. They are my favorite.
From down under Australia, tried this recipe yesterday, it was awesome. Always enjoy you videos, i had be learnt allot. Keep up your good work
Man Malcom does savory the best. Short ribs on the grill a savory masterpiece! This was a masterpiece! Thanks Malcom!
When I watch these videos it makes me hungry..but I know better I just like to watch his videos it's kinda fun to watch. I like when he always finishes he tries it as long as I been watching Malcom never had any thing negative to say about him. Sorry but after reading other people's comments makes me keep it 💯
Just tried these. Absolutely excellent with one caveat - don't throw away the vegetables! They were a great side!
ALL weather is BBQ weather!!!!!!! Good job Malcolm!!
Fills plate “family style”
Looks at family asks them what they’re having
8 months later take gratification in knowing ur comment still made me spit my drink.
I love seeing a bbq guy casually throw together a soffritto and bang out some short ribs. Cheers Malcom
I would love to sit with Malcom and some friends, eating burgers and wings, just talking about sports, life, BBQ.
I made the short ribs yesterday and followed your recipe. They were phenomenal. Thanks.
Doing this today. Im using beef ribs I got from my wifes dad who raises them himself. Did a brisket from one of his cows came out really dry so we shall see. I'll keep ya posted.
I pulled them 30 minutes early to put them in the braise. worried about them drying out. Looks good so far.
@@Synaptic_Response I never really worry about drying out if I’m braising. And braising as saved the day for me a couple times. A while back I saw a video where someone smoked a chuck roast and sliced it like brisket. All was going according to plan when I got distracted by something and didn’t realize I was on the fast track to smoking a brick until it was almost too late. So I put it in a foil pan with chipotle peppers and adobo sauce, some pineapple juice, onions, etc., and made pulled beef tacos. And to those who enjoyed the tacos with me, it’s exactly what I meant to do all along 😊
Used this recipe as a guide for my first beef cook on my recently acquired Camp Chef pellets grill...U.N.B.E.L.I.E.V.A.B.L.E results! Appreciate the assistance your channel has provided!
Malcom and Rachelle - this looks awesome! I bought my first pack of beef short ribs from my butcher today and I'm doing this recipe for Sunday dinner for sure! Thank you!!
Malcom.. Followed this recipe last night.. Melt in your mouth! So good. Served them over some mushroom risotto! Thank you! I'm a beginner with the smoker and will be using your recipes and videos as a guide to get started. Awesome stuff!
Making these today, I made them a few weeks back and they were awesome.
Ohhhh Myyyy Gooodness. I am just this moment eating this very meal. I followed all your directions but did it on my Weber 18.5. This is sooooooo amazing. Thank you for posting this stuff. If you ever wonder if you're making a difference in how somebody eats..... please know you have helped tremendously in this lil household. Thank you.
I got a 55 gallon drum smoker-grill my friend made for me. I cant wait ti try this recipe, the only thing is regulating the heat because i have to open the lid to add more wood when she cools down.
Made these Sunday night on my Primo Oval. Spectacular. Big hit at home. On the short list for go to dinners.
Thanks Malcolm
