How to Make Bbq Beef Ribs

  1. **Optional Pre-Steaming:** Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Place ribs on a cookie sheet, add 1 cup beef broth, seal tightly with tin foil, and bake for 30 minutes. This step is optional but highly recommended for extra tender ribs.
  2. **Make the BBQ Sauce:** In a saucepan, combine all sauce ingredients (see below) and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
  3. **Marinate the Ribs:** Place the ribs in a large resealable plastic bag. Pour the cooled BBQ sauce over the ribs, ensuring they are fully coated. Seal the bag and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or preferably overnight for maximum flavor.
  4. **Grill the Ribs:** Preheat grill to medium heat. Remove ribs from the marinade, reserving the marinade. Place ribs on the grill and cook for 50-60 minutes (or 30-40 minutes if pre-steamed), turning occasionally. During the last 20 minutes of grilling, baste the ribs generously with the reserved marinade.
  5. **Serve:** Remove ribs from grill, let rest for 5 minutes, and serve immediately with your favorite BBQ sides like coleslaw, baked potatoes, or corn on the cob.
