What Makes This Recipe So Good

  • They're jam-packed with delicious flavor! Start off with a delightfully spicy yet sweet marinade, then finish them off with a slathering of your favorite barbecue sauce.
  • They're cooked at a low temperature, helping the beef ribs retain their juiciness! Slow cook them over a gas or charcoal grill for about an hour and a half, flipping every 20 minutes. This method may take a while but is surprisingly simple and definitely worth the wait!
  • They'll make a great addition at your next summer barbecue! Surprise everyone with how tender and delicious beef ribs can be with this out-of-this-world recipe. Leave these to marinate about an hour before guests arrive, then transfer them to the grill and tend to them every so often. This flavor-packed barbecue recipe is one that everyone loves!

Key Ingredients

Beef Ribs – I highly recommend heading to your local butcher for a three pound beef rib rack. There are several cuts out there, therefore you'll need to specify that you're looking for a beef rib RACK. A rack of beef ribs will look similar to, but much larger than, a rack of baby back ribs.

Smoked Paprika – Smoked paprika brings out the delightful smoky flavor in this recipe! However, if you don't have smoked paprika you can use regular paprika instead. If using regular paprika, try adding a drop or two of liquid smoke as well.

Barbecue Sauce – This comes down to personal preference, so feel free to use whatever kind of barbecue sauce you'd like. I slathered a Kansas City-style sauce on my beef ribs which contributed some sweetness and was absolutely delicious! Though if you prefer a dry rib, you can skin the barbecue sauce in this recipe.

Chef's Tips

  • The longer you marinate these ribs, the better they'll be! If you're short on time, let them sit in the fridge for at least one hour. Though if you have the patience, wait the full two hours before grilling.
  • Keep an eye on the grill temperate while the rack cooks. Aim for somewhere between 200° – 250° Fahrenheit, though as close to 250° as you can get it. Also, if using a gas grill, be sure to place the meat over indirect heat to avoid overcooking.
  • Leave the beef ribs to rest off the grill for about 10 to 20 minutes before serving. During this time I like to set the table and get my sides ready. The meat will reabsorb any juices while it rests, holding on to much of that delicious flavor!
