First Shot at Beef Ribs
« Reply #-1 on: February 18, 2016, 06:53:24 PM »
I've NEVER made beef ribs before so I just bought a short rack of beef back ribs. Do you normally remove the membrane off beef ribs like you do pork? I just used the beef and game rub, hung them for an hour, sauced and returned them for 10 mins. Wow, I don't know why I waited so long to do beef ribs, they were simply outstanding!

I'm probably in the minority but I generally remove the membrane. Sometimes, however, I just crosshatch it with a knife point or forget about it altogether.

They look great !
I would agree with Ka Honu on the membrane. Either way works.

Great looking ribs.
I probably do a lot more beef ribs than pork ribs. I always try to remove the membrane. Sometimes the membrane doesn't cooperate so I just remove what I can without spending a whole lot of effort. I really don't notice much of a difference between the ones with the membrane and the ones without.

Nice looking first beef ribs!!! The last ones I did I had too much effort to get it off. I like to puncture between the ribs with a pickle fork. Don

I usually leave the membrane on beef ribs just to help keep things together as they shrink in size. I always pull the membrane on pork ribs.

Your ribs look outstanding!

Those are nice looking ribs.  I always try to remove the membrane as it helps the rub penetrate the meat.  If you like back ribs, try short ribs next time.  It is almost like prime rib.  I do mine with salt and pepper and cook about 4 hours (unwrapped) until tender.  Have not tried this on the PBC yet but on my PK Grill

Nice looking bones.  I will remove the membrane on occasion, but don't really have any issues leaving it on either.

Those are the meatiest beef back ribs I've ever seen!  Great job with them.

I'm in the pulling membrane club.  I'm also in the short rib (or chuck rib) club as the back ribs available locally have almost no meat on them.
