Ingredients
- 3-4 lbs Country Style Beef Ribs
- 2 tbsp brown sugar
- 1 tbsp smoked paprika
- 2 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1 tsp black pepper
- 2 tsp kosher salt
- 1 cup beef broth
- BBQ sauce of choice
- Apple cider vinegar
- Worcestershire sauce
Instructions
Step 1: Season Like a Pro
- Pat your Country Style Beef Ribs completely dry with paper towels. Mix all dry seasonings in a small bowl. Coat ribs generously, pressing seasoning into meat. Let me tell you something – this step makes or breaks your final result.
Step 2: Sear for Maximum Flavor
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear ribs for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown. Don’t overcrowd the pan. This creates the flavor foundation that braising alone cannot achieve.
Step 3: Low and Slow Magic
- Transfer seared ribs to your roasting pan. Add beef broth carefully around (not over) the meat. Cover tightly with foil. The key here? Patience absolutely pays off.
Step 4: The Oven Dance
- Bake at 275°F for 2.5 hours. Check once halfway through – liquid should be gently bubbling. Resist the urge to peek frequently. Your house will smell incredible, but trust the process.
Step 5: The Final Touch
- Remove foil during last 15 minutes if you want a slightly crispy exterior. Internal temperature should reach 195°F for perfect tenderness.
Step 6: Rest and Serve
- Let ribs rest 10 minutes before slicing. This allows juices to redistribute throughout the meat. Slice against the grain for maximum tenderness.
