Why Cook Beef Ribs at 110°C?
The classic low-and-slow temperature. Produces the most tender, smoky beef ribs with maximum bark.
Pro tip: Wrap in butcher paper at the stall (around 68°C) to push through without losing bark texture.
Step-by-Step: Beef Ribs at 110°C
- Preheat: Get your BBQ to a stable 110°C (225°F). Use a grill thermometer at grate level for accuracy.
- Prep: Bring the beef ribs to room temperature (15-20 minutes). Pat dry and season generously.
- Set up: Configure your BBQ for indirect/smoking heat. Place coals on one side only, or turn off one burner on a gas BBQ.
- Cook: Place the beef ribs on the grate and cook for 8-10 hours. Flip halfway through.
- Check: Use a digital meat thermometer. Target: 96°C (205°F) probe tender.
- Rest: Remove from heat and rest before cutting or serving.
Common Mistakes at 110°C
- Not preheating properly — a cold grill at 110°C means uneven cooking and longer times.
- Skipping the thermometer — time is a guide, internal temperature is the law.
- Opening the lid too often — every peek drops the temperature by 10-15°C and extends cooking time.
- Not resting — cutting immediately loses up to 30% of the juices. Rest for at least 5 minutes.
