Prepare the Smoker: Preheat the smoker to 225 degrees.

Prep the Ribs: Remove the tough membrane (silver skin) from the back of the ribs (this helps the seasoning penetrate and allows for more tender meat). Place the ribs on a baking sheet or a large dish.

Season the Ribs: Rub the outside of the meat generously with your favorite dry rub or seasoning. Make sure to coat both sides and the sides of the ribs evenly.

Smoke the Ribs: Place the rack of ribs ribs on the smoker or grill, bone side of the ribs down and the meat side up. Close the lid and let the rack of beef ribs smoke for about 3-4 hours, maintaining a consistent temperature. You can periodically check the temperature and add more pellets as needed to maintain the smoke. Cooking time is roughly about 5 hours, depending on the size of your ribs.

Check for Doneness: After about 4 hours, check the internal temperature of the ribs using a meat thermometer. They're ready when the internal temperature reaches 190 degrees and the meat is tender and pulls away from the bones easily. If you like bbq ribs, then you can brush them with homemade BBQ sauce during the last 30 minutes of cooking.

Rest and Serve: Once the ribs are done, remove them from the smoker or grill, place ribs on a cookie sheet and loosely tent them with aluminum foil. Let them rest for about 10-15 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute. Then, slice the ribs between the bones and serve with your favorite sides.

Enjoy your delicious smoked ribs!
