Braised Barbecue Beef Back Ribs Recipes

BRAISED BEEF RIBS WITH VEGETABLES

Steps:

• In a Dutch oven or high-sided frying pan, heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil and season with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper. Brown the ribs on all sides, then remove, and discard the fat.
• Put 1 tablespoon of olive oil in the pan and brown 1 onion and 2 garlic cloves. Deglaze the pan with the water, add back the ribs, cover, and put into a 400 degree oven for 1 hour. Remove the pan, turn over the ribs, and put back in the oven for another hour.
• Check the ribs. The meat should be tender and almost falling off the bone. If you're using short ribs, you may need to increase the cooking time another hour and you may have to add another cup of liquid.
• Put the ribs into one container. Strain out the onions and garlic and discard. Put the braising liquid into a second container and refrigerate.
• The next day, peel the thick layer of fat off the braising liquid and discard. In the same pan you used the day before, heat the olive oil and butter. Brown the potatoes, mushrooms, and the rest of the onions, add the ribs and the braising liquid. Cover and simmer for 15 minutes. Add the carrots, celery, broccoli, parsley, the rest of the garlic, and Brussels sprouts. Cover and simmer another 15 minutes.
• Serve the ribs in bowls with plenty of vegetables, the braising liquid, and a fresh baguette.

BRAISED BARBECUE BEEF BACK RIBS

Steps:

• Remove the membrane from the back of the ribs. In a small bowl, add the dry rub ingredients, mix well, and set aside. Put the soy marinade in a resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Marinate the beef back ribs for 45 minutes in the soy marinade.
• Build a fire (wood or a combination of charcoal and wood) for indirect cooking by situating the coals on only one side of the grill, leaving the other side void. Remove the ribs from the marinade, pat dry, and apply an even coat of the dry rub to all sides. Place the beef ribs on the cooker (bone side down) away from the coals, close the lid, and cook with indirect heat (approximately 250°F) for 2 hours.
• Remove the ribs from the grill and place them in the center of a doubled sheet of aluminum foil, meat side facing down. In a small bowl, combine the beef broth and Worcestershire to make the braising liquid. Pour the braising liquid over the ribs and wrap tightly in the foil to trap the juices inside. Return the foil pack to the grill, close the lid, and cook for 2 hours and 15 minutes, or until tender.
• Let the beef rest in the foil for 15 minutes before serving.
