Creating a delicious meal featuring BBQ beef ribs, a savory dressing, and creamy macaroni can be a delightful experience. Here’s a comprehensive guide to preparing this mouth-watering trio.
BBQ Beef Ribs
Ingredients:
- 4 lbs beef ribs
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon paprika
- 1 tablespoon garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 cup BBQ sauce (homemade or store-bought)
Instructions:
- Prep the Ribs: Remove the membrane from the back of the ribs for better flavor absorption.
- Mix the Rub: In a bowl, combine brown sugar, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cumin, salt, and pepper.
- Apply the Rub: Rub the mixture all over the ribs, ensuring they are well-coated.
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 275°F (135°C). For outdoor grilling, prepare your grill for indirect heat.
- Cook the Ribs: Wrap the ribs in foil and place them in the oven or covered grill. Cook for about 2.5 to 3 hours, until tender.
- Add BBQ Sauce: Unwrap the ribs and brush them with your favorite BBQ sauce. If using an oven, increase the temperature to 350°F (175°C) and bake for an additional 15 minutes. On a grill, place them over direct heat to caramelize the sauce, about 5 minutes per side.
