Cooking my first beef short ribs this weekend. At least I think I am. I've really enjoyed finding a local butcher. He's had great product and I think its really helped up my bbq game. Unfortunately, he must not get much request for short ribs. The beef ribs he carries are cut into chunks instead of a plate. I was hoping for a plate because that is what I've seen photos of and could recognize it (riblets maybe). I will be cooking these tomorrow and would appreciate if anyone could tell me if these are short ribs and if I should cook them with the usual low and slow. I think they have some nice marbling, but a lot of fat too. I've got them dry brining now.

Started Low-N-Slow BBQ in 2012. Obviously, it's taken hold (in chronological order:
1.) A pair of Weber Smokey Mountain 22.5's
2.) #LilTex, a 22" Expensive Offset Smoker (looks like a Yoder Witicha)
3.) #WhoDat1, a HUGE Gravity Fed Insulated Cabinet Smoker (cooking chamber 3'x2'x6')
4.) A Full Size Commercial Dryer/converted to Vertical Smoker.
5.) Jambo Backyard stickburner (my FAVORITE Pit so far)
6.) GrillMeister, a huge 24"x48" Adjustable, Charcoal Grill from Pitmaker.com
7.) 22" Weber Kettle with Slow-N-Sear
8.) Vault insulated reverse-flow cabinet smoker from Pitmaker
9.) BarbecueFiretruck...under development
10.) 26 foot BBQ Vending Trailer equipped with HUGE Myron Mixon 72xc smoker is HERE, Oct 2016!
11.) Opened www.PaulsRibShackBarbecue.com Food Trailer officially in March 2017
12.) Austin Smoke Works 500 Gallon Propane Tank Offset Smoker, named "Lucille" as travel pit for PaulsRibShack, Oct 2018.
12.) Opening Brick & Mortar location at 4800 Nelson Rd, Spring 2019. Had a pair of 1,000 Gallon Austin Smoke Works pits, both in RibShackRed for our new place!
Fabulous Backlit Thermapens, several Maverick Remote Thermometers (don't use any remotes anymore), Thermoworks Smoke, Other Thermoworks toys, Vacuum sealer, lots and lots of equipment...
I'm loving using BBQ to make friends and build connections.
I have #theRibList where I keep a list of new and old friends and whenever I'm cooking, I make 1 to 20 extra and share the joy.
Those are beautiful Bone-In Beef Short Ribs. Wonderful marbling and all things great! The 3 bone plate is cut into 3 ribs, and those ribs look cut into long sections. No worries - they will cook perfectly!
Dry brine, like you did, then add a generous coating of BBBR. Smoke at 250-275 for a good while, about 8 hours, until they probe like buttah. You will be reporting back to us it was the best thing you ever took off of your pit! #BishopApproved.
Here is a pic of a pair of similar cut Shorties in front, St. Louis ribs behind, from my archive. So great!!!!
