They were on my pit barrel for 3 hours and that smoke ring wasn't good enough for my Mom, who thought it was too tough. I don't think she likes smoked beef.
I am kind of with your mom....i find it hard to make beef ribs tender. The flavor is always good but they are never melt in your mouth like a baby back pork rib. The Costco beef ribs were a good price so i was tempted.
