Trying to decide between smoking and sous vide. Which would you choose? Time and temp?

I do both. I will smoke them for a few hours then sous vide them for a day or two around 130ish.

Why smoke first? I would think smoke second so the bark doesn't get soggy.

TK's beef stroganoff is something Ive always wanted to make but the idea of a 3 day cook for one dish just is something I cant get past. And I say that having made some of his time intensive dishes. The French onion soup in Bouchon takes 6 straight hours of time that basically is hands on continuously.

The smoke is just to get the flavor not the crust
. I dried them off and finished them with fear burner last time. They came out nice.

Is there a logic to smoking them first then, or does it not matter?

Smoke over Post Oak. Rub them down with a good rub and smoke them around 265 degrees with Post Oak wood.

I'll be smoking three set of beef ribs, along with a pork shoulder, on Sat....but using hickory (cuz we love hickory smoke).
Coarse black pepper, a little garlic powder, salt...that's it. Already seasoned and in the fridge.

Added on Sat....beef ribs and pork shoulder on the Akorn smoker.

Smoking first you know you won't over cook them?

I ended up using a salt and pepper dry rub, sous vide for 48 hours at 138, finished with a quick sear in a cast iron skillet and blow torch touch up. Result was a beautiful medium rare that was really tender and amazing flavor.

I have been wanting to smoke some beef ribs. But when going to the grcoery butcher, all of their BR look too thin or too long. I ultimately want to do what is below. I live in Austin, shop at HEB and Costco. Any suggestions, or what to ask/look out for?

Ask for Beef Plate Ribs. My HEB carries both Choice and Prime. Also Beef Chuck Ribs will work as well just not as marbled as Plate

HEB has them in the back. Just ask for beef plate ribs. They are usually 3-4 bones per section, and come two to a pack. You can usually just get one section.
