We sat down with Matt Pittman to get the inside scoop on these drool-worthy ribs and to see what all the fuss was about. Matt, a seasoned barbecue pro, walked us through the process of preparing and grilling these massive beef ribs on his trusty Traeger grill.
First off, the Monster Beef Ribs are exactly what they sound like – gigantic, meaty ribs that are sure to satisfy even the biggest appetites. Matt explained that these ribs are cut from the plate section of the beef, giving them a rich, fatty flavor that really sets them apart from your average pork ribs.
To start, Matt seasons the beef ribs with his signature Meat Church rub, a blend of savory spices that really bring out the natural flavors of the meat. He then lets the ribs sit for a few hours to allow the seasonings to penetrate the meat, creating a delicious crust when grilled.
Next comes the fun part – grilling the ribs on the Traeger. Matt recommends cooking the ribs low and slow, at around 250 degrees Fahrenheit, for several hours to allow the meat to become tender and juicy. He uses a mixture of hickory and apple wood pellets to add a smoky flavor that perfectly complements the meat.
After a few hours on the grill, the Monster Beef Ribs are ready to be devoured. Matt recommends serving them with a side of his homemade barbecue sauce for an extra kick of flavor.
