Ingredients
Scale
- 4 lbs beef back ribs, trimmed
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tbsp salt
- 1 tbsp black pepper
- 2 tsp garlic powder
- 2 tsp onion powder
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- 1 cup BBQ sauce (your favorite)
- 1/2 cup beef broth
Instructions
-
Prepare the Ribs (15 minutes)
- Preheat your oven to 275°F (135°C).
- Pat the ribs dry with paper towels and remove the silver skin from the back of the ribs for better tenderness.
- Rub the ribs with olive oil, then season evenly with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and smoked paprika.
-
Bake the Ribs (2 hours 30 minutes)
- Place the seasoned ribs on a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil. Cover tightly with foil to lock in moisture.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 2.5 hours.
-
Add the BBQ Sauce (5 minutes)
- Remove the ribs from the oven and uncover. Brush generously with BBQ sauce on all sides.
-
Broil or Grill (10-15 minutes)
- Preheat your broiler or grill.
- Place the ribs under the broiler or on the grill for 10-15 minutes, turning and brushing with additional BBQ sauce as needed. This step creates a caramelized glaze.
-
Serve and Enjoy (5 minutes)
- Allow the ribs to rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Serve with extra BBQ sauce on the side.
Notes
Tips for the Best Beef Back Ribs
- Choose Quality Meat: Look for ribs with good marbling for maximum flavor.
- Low and Slow Cooking: This ensures the meat stays juicy and tender.
- Rest Before Serving: Let the ribs rest for 10 minutes before slicing to retain juices.
Serving Suggestions
Pair your beef back ribs with coleslaw, cornbread, or roasted vegetables for a complete meal. Add extra barbecue sauce on the side for dipping.
