Never done beef ribs myself either, I'd be interested to know also since I'd like to try some sometime this summer.

I've only done them once, and I don't think I cooked them long enough.

I found these two threads:

I do a lot of beef ribs. I apply a rub, set the smoker for 225*;smoke for 2 hrs; spritz with apple juice or beer and foil, put in for an hour; remove foil, add sauce and put in the smoker for another hour. So basically a 2-1-1 method. I do monitor the last hour and may shorten or slightly lengthen depending how they look. This method has always worked for me.

I do my beef ribs similar to spare ribs.  Low and slow.  Usually 4-5 hours at 220-230.  Always turn out well.  Don't rush them

so treat um like spares low and slow like everything else to do with the que  ;D
