“Easy oven baked BBQ beef ribs that are well-seasoned to the bone, slow-baked, tender, juicy, and fall off the bone perfection!”
Watch Me Make These Oven Baked BBQ Beef Ribs From Start To Finish!
For some reason, it never fails that my sister and I get stuck making the beef ribs for family functions. Maybe it’s because we make really great oven-baked beef ribs. Truth be told, we have no clue what we’re doing and our oven-baked ribs are, use to be really hit or miss.
Here’s how the conversation would go. My sister calls me up:
Sister: Mama wants you to make beef ribs for {insert any occasion}.
Me: No she doesn’t. You know good and well she asked you to make them.
Sister: Yes, but I don’t want to. So, I’ll buy them and let you make them ok.
Me: Umm…no ma’am!
Sister: Ok I’ll drop them off.
Me: Shon don’t bring those ribs over here, seriously! I’m not even at home. (total lie)
Sister: Ok then I’ll just leave them by the door m-kay. Byeee. Thanks boo!!!!!! (and she hangs up before I have a chance to respond)

That girl gets on my nerves sometimes!! LOL Gotta love her!! I think we use to hate making the beef ribs because we really didn’t have a tried and true recipe to work off of.
Yes, I have another oven-baked beef rib recipe on my site but I grew tired of that one. It was a little too saucy and time-consuming. Not to mention, it wasn’t doing the best job at making my husband do the “pretend booty slap dance” after he ate them. Which is what he does when I make something amazing.
I wanted an oven-baked beef rib recipe that was simple, easy, and made the best beef ribs consistently. Well, I decided to do what any girl does when she needs a tried and true recipe to wow ’em, I called grandma!!!
Ms. Barbara never disappoints honey. She made my hubby and me some oven-baked BBQ beef ribs when we went to visit (yes she cooks a full spread for ANYBODY who tells her they are coming over. Like seriously. She is insanely sweet like that) and he raved about how good they were. I love when my food makes my man happy so I was determined to recreate my grandma’s ribs for him.
Well, guess what happened? My husband liked this oven-baked BBQ rib recipe better than Grandma Barbs!! The only thing I did differently was added more spices to the rib spice rub recipe. I think this kicked up the taste of the BBQ sauce and even helped to tenderize them a little more.
Now I ONLY make this oven beef rib recipe and after you try it, you may never make it any other way either. Hubby says I’m not allowed to experiment with other recipes because these beef ribs took him on a journey somewhere and he couldn’t stop eating them. He seriously almost ate the entire pan. I won’t lie, they are amazing! Juicy, fall off the bone tender, well- seasoned, perfectly saucy, and sticky! Everything I look for in a good oven-baked BBQ beef rib.
Ok, enough blabbering about these doggone beef ribs. Go make them for your man. For your wife. For yourself. For your kids. Somebody! Just make them. And devour them one by one until you push back from the table totally stuffed. I may or may not have done that. I served these oven-baked BBQ beef ribs with sweet corn, steamed broccoli, garlic Texas toast, and cinnamon mashed sweet potatoes…and of course sweet ice tea!
Oven Baked BBQ Beef Ribs
Ingredients
- 3 lbs meaty beef ribs (grass-fed)
- Liquid smoke optional
- 2-4 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon onion powder
- 1 tablespoon cajun seasoning
- 2 tablespoons dark brown sugar packed
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1 teaspoon salt can use smoked salt as well. (I used 1 ½ teaspoons because we kinda like our ribs a tad salty)
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 2 teaspoons oregano
- Favorite BBQ Sauce I only used a few tablespoons of Sweet Baby Ray's
Instructions
- Rinse ribs and dry COMPLETELY with paper towels.
- Douse dry ribs with liquid smoke if using and rub it in.
- Lightly coat ribs in olive oil.
- Mix together seasoning and sprinkle generously over ribs, front and back. (You don't have to use all of seasoning mix)
- Massage the spices into the ribs, adding more olive oil to help distribute the spices well if needed.
- Place the ribs in a large ziplock bag or covered bowl and marinate in the fridge for 1-2 hours.
- Preheat the oven to 250 F.
- Place the ribs on a foil lined baking tray in a single layer.
- Add another piece of foil on top to create a pouch for the ribs to cook in. Be sure to seal the edges of the foil so that it's tight and steam won't seep out.
- Bake on the middle rack of 3 1/2 -4 hours. (Mine only needed 3 1/2 hours) Check on it after the 3 1/2 hour mark. The oven temperature is very low so you can afford to cook it a bit longer without worry)
- When the ribs are done to your liking, drain off the excess fat.
- Brush the ribs with desired amount of BBQ sauce.
- Broil on low until the sauce is sticky. (this won't take long so keep an eye on it)
- Serve hot and enjoy!!
My local market has choice grade Beef Ribs all the time and at a fair price so I was looking for a good recipe. This one is fantastic and my first Divas Can Cook recipie. First time out they were perfect and extremely easy. First, I want to say that I used boneless and the recommendation to drop cooking time to 1 ½ to 2 hours is spot on. I make my own rub in large batches and most of the ingredients are the same as this recipe, so I simply used my own. I added chipotle chili powder. I was out of paprika. And I passed on the smoke, my wife is not a fan. We favor the sweeter approach to ribs and shy away from the spicy hot. If you like the spicy avenue I would not deviate from these ingredients. Marinaded them for 2 hours at 50°. I used the 250° oven temp. I was a bit unsure of that but held true. I made on change to the cooking. I did not use the aluminum foil pouch approach. I do use that for some recipes. I wanted to be able to test the meat easily, this being the first time trying this and I am finicky about the tenderness of my ribs. I used one of my cast iron Dutch overs so I could lift the lid and check and not have to mess with hot steam and resealing the foil. Perfect. Don’t do anything to the pan, just lay the meat in a single layer and place in oven. 1 hour 45 minutes. I removed them from the pan separated the grease and saved the au jus for dinner and placed them in the fridge. We went and played 9 holes of golf. At dinner time I heated up the grill medium low put on a small amount of Bay Rays honey BBQ grilled for 8 or 10 minutes. Best we have ever had. Already sent the recipe to a few friends. Great find and will be added to the best of the best list along with our brazed short ribs and chicken cordon blue and few other ones you always pull out for company.
….so basically, you did not use her recipe. Glad your ribs turned out great.
These are scrumptious! I’ve made them a few times now (I think they need the extra salt as well). I had beef ribs at a wedding once & they were sooo yummy, I had to look online to make my own. Then I came across your fantastic recipe. 🙂 Thanks so much!!!
Thanks for giving a short and simple comment! I hate those long comments that are the equivalent of a book. I don’t read those, I roll right past them…
The short ribs I have are a bad cut I think – they have like 40% fat, 10% grissel, bone then meat. I used your recipe and the flavour was great but I felt like my daily threw out most of their ribs because it was so hard to eat (to get through the fat and grissel). Do you have any other recipes I could try to use what I have up? My husband thought maybe a broth but there’s too much fat…?
I didn’t have any liquid smoke! But I learned that sesame oil gives a smoked flavor. Just have to be careful not to add much to prevent only sesame oil taste . It is very aromatic and powerful season. I used the sesame oil and every thing was delicious!!!
Awesome!Thanks for the tip!
The bone in is the best part
I really want to try this but I currently only have pork ribs. How long should I cook this in the oven?
I’ve used this recipe twice and even omitted the Cajun seasoning and still love them. I was wondering does this recipe translate to pork ribs? And also, can you use a smoker instead of an oven?
Thanks for the recipe I have it saved in my phone and use it every chance I get.
@Betsy
I regularly make pork ribs using a similar oven method.
Rub pork ribs with favorite seasoning rub (i use a mesquite one from costco). Wrap in foil pouch and cook at 300* for 2 &1/2 – 3 hours. Carefilluly open pouch and discard liquid. Add your favorite BBQ sauce to cooked ribs and place on hot grill or under broiler until you have desired char.
Delicious every time!
A M A Z I N G!!!!!!!
I’ve used this recipe twice and both times the recipe rocked. I did not cut up the bones, but cooked as full racks. Great results!
I made these! Yum! Absolutely delicious! Don’t forget to remove the membrane! Made cold potato salad & corn on the cob! Everyone loved it!!
Excellent! Loved your video, too! Keep it up! I’m following. 5 stars
Hi! I’m new to your blog and want to try out this recipe!
If I only have boneless beef ribs on hand would you say this recipe would still work?
Did you try this ? I have the same dilemma
It definitely works; have made this several times with boneless beef ribs.
Hi Mellissa.
I love boneless ribs, too! I would shorten the cooking time. Start checking for doneness (when meat falls apart with a fork) at 1 & 1/2 to 2 hours. The author says, “The oven temperature is very low so you can afford to cook it a bit longer without worry.”
I’ve used boneless and they work perfectly. Literally just fall apart!
I have to say all of your recipes ROCK!! This one for rips doesn’t disappoint! I’m new to cooking but your recipes makes my food taste like I’ve been cooking for years!! Thanks so much for posting & sharing!!
Awesome ribs. Your videos are entertaining and fun to watch. I love to cook and I am always looking for a new recipe to try. 5 stars on this one for sure. Nicely done!
Easy and delicious! I did not use the liquid smoke and used this rub with 4lbs of ribs instead of 3lb, plenty of rub for 4lb. Was tender after 3.5 hours of baking.
They are the best. I like the liquid smoke idea.
Sweet Baby Ray’s is the best sauce. I always have a big spoon full for myself. I am making them again this week.
Thanks for the recipe.
Wayne
Nakusp, B.C.
Sweet baby Ray’s is made with corn syrup, much better sauces out there
This has become my go-to ribs recipe. The rub is so delicious- perfect blend of flavors!
Love this recipe but instead of brown sugar, I coated with maple syrup over the olive oil and then sprinkled them with salt, pepper and Montreal steak spice only and left in fridge 2 hrs and baked at 250 for 4 hrs. My dog hated the bones as there was very little meat left on them.
So, you really didn’t make THIS recipe did you?!
I made this!! Topped with cilantro gremolata. It was so good!
The meat fell of the bone, meat was so nicely marinated. Everyone loved it (phew, first time using this recipe and I was courageous enough to host a dinner of 6 with it. Luckily it didn’t disappoint!!)
Made these ribs today for my son and he said they were the best he’s had since having ribs in Kansas City!!! Thank you for the great recipe. I will definitely make these again!
Beef rib delightful. oh my word the only thing I have added two tablespoon apple cider vinegar and two teaspoons of hot pepper sauce just for added flavor. It’s to die for feel like I am addicted.Go ahead give it a try then you will understand why I feel this way. Enjoy!
I have never made beef ribs before, only pork and lamb. Tried this recipe. It is absolutely delicious. Will make it again, for sure.
You’re the best!!!!
I have bone) I have boneless ribs can I do the same for them
Can I marinate these overnight and/or through the day while I am at work, instead of just for the 1-2 hrs?
Yes I have, they taste so good!
Heavenly! Made countless times with this recipe. My family & guests loved loved loved these deliciously tender beef ribs. Thank you!
I’m going for round 2 tonight… on the Traeger. 1’st round was SPECTACULAR, and i didn’t even do the tinfoil as indicated here in the recipe to hold in more moisture w/ steam. It’s about 10 degrees fahrenheit out tonight, so it may take a few more minutes each side; add the elevation of 9.400 feet – wonder if that has any impact ??
DB
I haven’t made these yet, but your article is hilarious! Thanks for the laugh. I’ll try the recipe now :o)
Great Recipe!! I have always used Sweet Baby Rays BBQ for making Beef or Pork ribs ….. However, I also add a little Tiger Sauce and a little bit of Apple Cider Vinegar to the BBQ sauce for an added sweet heat kick.
I found this recipe on yesterday and buried to buy beef ribs. I followed as directed but used no salt seasonings. They just came out of the oven and were basted with sauce. They are falling of the bone! I tasted the meat and did a happy dance (not like your husband’s).
These ribs are the best I’ve ever made. My only mistake was that I should have bought more ribs. Thank you.
This will be the third time I have made these ribs. Delicious and super easy as long as you remember to get started early!
Made this recipe on pork ribs countless times, they always come out great!
This was the first time I made oven baked rib and say they were finger licking good 5/5 ❤️
OMG !!
I’ve made these 3 times already and never make enough! They are so good!! Finding beef ribs in Montreal isn’t easy so when I see them on the shelf, they are coming home with me.
I even did this recipe in on of my youtube videos. Love your work Monique! xx
Made these for the 4th, forgoing the brown sugar, and I used a sugar free sweet and spicy bbq sauce. They were awesome! Will definitely make again.
Absolutely brilliant – tasty, spicy and succulent ribs! Following this recipe again today but on Pork Ribs, my mouth’s watering already!
My absolute go to for oven baked beef ribs. It’s easy kinda like spice em and Cook em ! They come out so tender
I have made these ribs 3 times they are awesome thank you for sharing this recipe
What kind of ribs do you use?
These ribs are thee best. I swear I never thought I could make something
so delicious. Thank you. Every recipe I’ve have tried has been really very good
I don’t eat meat, so I rely heavily on reviews for meats to determine if I want to cook a dish. This meal got 5 stars from my guy. He said they were very tender and flavorful. I could not get a full rack of beef ribs so I used flank cut beef short ribs.
I made these today. Excellent rub. I like “fall off the bone” ribs of all kinds. If I use this recipe again, I will cook the ribs much longer.
just made these. AWESOME! AWESOME!
My go to for ribs! We make these every year for my husband’s birthday! Thanks for the great recipe!
Hello. I just bought on a whim, Beef Back Ribs.
1. Are Beef Back Ribs the type you used or Beef Short Ribs.
2. Also could I just use my braising pan with lid instead of the pan lined and then covered and sealed with Aluminum Foil?
Thank you from Northern BC Canada where it is soooo cold today.
KWillick
Did you ever get an answer in which cut this is?
Made these for supper tonight, did not disappoint. They were delicious!
Have made this a couple of times and every time they turn out perfect i even shared the recipe with a fellow carnivore his family ate everything and wanted more. Thank you
Oh no I put the BBQ sauce on the ribs with the seasoning! Are my ribs going to burn?!
Loved this recipe!!!!. Best ribs ive ever made . Hubby loved it. Thank you fir sharing the recipe.
Originally, I was going to use beef ribs for home made soup, but after I came across your recipe, I decided to follow your recipe, and I wasn’t disappointed – so delicious, and my husband wanted a second helping (this is almost unheard of for him !)
By the way, I love your commentary – you’re so lucky, having a sister (always wish I’d had one), and I know if I’d had one, it would be me who would be doing the cooking.
What a wonderful recipe.. thank you so much for posting this.
Perfect flavour!
We’re more a pork rib family but there was a 3.5lb package of beef ribs in this month’s CSA delivery that we needed to eat. So glad we had to try something new! I made this recipe today and the ribs came out tender, flavorful, and delicious! I followed the recipe exactly except I didn’t have any Cajun seasoning. So, just upped the onion and garlic powders by a teaspoon and added a heaping teaspoon of thyme. My chili powder is plenty hot, so there was enough heat without the cayenne that would’ve been in the Cajun seasoning. Timing was perfect in this recipe, too. Ribs were done in 3hrs 45 minutes.
You heaven sent beauty! This had everyone licking their fingers at my New Year’s Eve hosting !!!!! Thanks for sharing. Happy 2020!
I made these Ribs tonight and they were truly the bomb. Thanks for the recipe. Will now be my go to for great ribs. Slow cooked just the way you said and than to the broiler. I loved them, and so did my grandchildren.
I made this and it was very yummy. I also used it to make chicken wings. Delicious.
I made these for my son and I as a casual Christmas dinner and they were amazing! The only change I made was chipotle chili powder instead of regular chili powder, and of course I used honey chipotle BBQ sauce as well. Absolutely delish! This will be my “go to” rib recipe from now on.
I have made these 4 times they are delicious. My man friend thinks I can cook. He doesn’t know that I know how to follow instructions. Lol
Love this recipe, I have made twice for me and my partner and we love them. Delicious, tender and juicy!!
Amazing recipe! The only thing I was disappointed about was that you didn’t mention removing the membrane. It was my first time making any kind of ribs and I had no clue that you even had to do that. I know most of the people who look at recipes probably already know how to cook well and don’t need that to be mentioned but maybe you can add it now for the newbies who are just starting out. I think that would’ve made them a little better. Thank you for the recipe though it was super easy and delicious!
What’s the recommended way to best reheat the beef ribs? Thanks for the very flavorful, tasty and easy prep for this deliciousness!
These ribs are so delicious that I can’t believe I made them!! Your recipe is now permanently in our dinner favorites! Thank you so much!
I’m using the ingredients now for chicken thighs!! Can’t wait to see the results!! I will bake @ 350 degrees, covered like the ribs, then remove foil to baste/broil the thighs!!
Amazing!!! I made these today and loved loved loved them. Thank youu
Did you get the ribs cut by the butcher? If so what size cut do you suggest?
Made them twice had my husband singing while resting lol! Instructions were easy to follow and they were absolutely delicious!
I have made this recipe 3 times since finding it in August. It is the best and easiest beef run recipe I have found. These do not have to be BBQ’d to be great. The rub can be changed to your taste but I make double rub and store to be put on other things (sausage is great). The smoke is a must but it is the method that is the real secret to this best rib recipe.
I am making these today. I made this recipe before and they were so good. Meat was tender and delicious.
WOW!!!!!!! Better than you get in the restaurant and so easy. Kudos to the Divas! Thank you.
All I can say is WOW!!!!! Better than in the restaurant, and so easy. Kudos and a mega thank you shout out to the Divas!
O-M 2 DA G!!! I prepared my beef chuck riblets last night according to the directions, and put them in the oven this morning. They are falling off the bone tender, and #divascancook delicious!! This recipe definitely deserves well over 5⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
What type of beef rib do you use? Is it a regular rack of beef ribs that you cut up or do you use short ribs?
Amazing recipe!! Thank you so much for sharing! I just made these this evening and this will be my forever recipe! You will have many Canadians loving your recipe as I share it with my family!!! Also from British Columbia like another person that commented.
I made these for Sunday dinner. I have to admit that I was a little bit skeptical. I’ve never been a fan of oven baked barbecue ribs. These were absolutely delicious. This is now my go-to recipe for oven baked ribs. Thanks!
I have made these three times now and making them again tomorrow. Never ever had ribs this good
Thanks for the wonderful recipe.
When the animals are butchered, it may or may not be the most sanitary, so why take that chance?
Best beef ribs! We don’t eat pork & it’s hard to get that yummy rib craving without it paying a ton at a restaurant. These are so easy & perfect.
I was concerned I couldn’t do it and it’s so much easier & cost effective than I thought. So juicy & flavorful!
Thank you way more than you know! 5 stars! Best ever!
Read article yesterday. Rinsed off ribs,and sprinkled on Adobo with pepper seasoning. All I had here at time. Baked, covered with foil, at 250, for a little over three hours. The ribs were fall off the bone tender and delicious. Thank you for the idea, and the instructions!
This is a wonderful recipe. I love them so much I’m going to the store for more ribs so I can make more tomorrow. 5 stars! Thank you!!
Thanks for sharing your recipe. These are the best short ribs I’ve prepare! I wish I had cooked more.
OMG! Just made these for the family tonight and man o man we ate the whole darn rack! Thank you so much for sharing Grandmas recipe with the twist that you added. I don’t think I will ever make ribs on the grill again!!
These look delicious!!
I used this recipe the first time I made beef ribs and my family said I “knocked it out of the park”. Good thing I made a double batch! I did not have cajun seasoning, but next time I will make half with and the other without. Some like it spicy, some not.
Best rub ever!!! Thanks for sharing the recipe! I’m one of your subscriber on YouTube for years now. Keep up the good work!
Can someone tell me the point of rinsing and drying?
Thank you. (Love this recipe – making them today)
Typically (out here in the SF Bay Area) Beef Ribs are frozen or previously frozen in a vacuum seal package. The blood tends to smell and has a slimly texture to it. Rinsing the meat washes off the slime & scent. This will not alter the meat.
I’ve made these maybe a dozen times now and they always come out wonderful! This is a great recipe! My husband loves them!
What can of ribs should I buy? All I see are boneless counrty style and beef short ribs.
The short ribs
These are my wife’s favourites, they’ve been waiting for her many times after a long day at work and the amazing aroma never ceases to put a smile on her face.
Kinda taught myself how to cook during a tough time in my life and a lot of the recipes I used (still use) came from divascancook. I greatly enjoy the stories/dialogue that are a part of your recipes, they add a lot to the experience.
By prepping in advance at home I’ve been able to take some of the dishes you write about out camping- cooking over (or in) the campfire adds a delicious dimension to an already yummy recipe.
Thank you from British Columbia.
Just made these and they were excellent. My first time eating or making beef ribs. I seasoned them the night before then the next day I wrapped in foil and baked when I got home from work. Couldn’t have been easier. I baked @ 260* just because my oven runs low and did the full 3.5hrs and they just fell off the bone. Very good
That is awesome! So glad you enjoyed!
Came out really well. Good recipe for indoors.
Thank you for leaving a comment!
Are this similar to short ribs beef? And can u braise in oven?
I made this and smacked my own booty it was so good! Now have to cook it for a female..lol Thanks for the recipe and good laughs.
AHAHAHAHA!!! That is so funny!!!
Just made this recipe and my family loved it!!
Thank you for sharing!!
NICE recipe!
You are the bomb! Ok !! Yassssss?
Love your blog. Can you do the same to pork ribs?
OMG…those ribs look soooooo good..will try this recipe…keep them coming Diva
Patsie in California?
I tried this recipe a few times and I must say the ribs are amazing every time and such an easy way to make a great dish I would also recommend sweet baby rays barbecue sauce .
Just tried his recipe. I tore up a few of the ribs before even adding the bbq sauce. There’s no need for it. They are seasoned so well and so tender. However, I’m gonna add some sweet Carolina sauce to it because it can only make it better! Thanks for this!
Do you have a favorite brand for Cajun seasoning in this recipe?
Ribs turned out great.Everybody loved them.
Thank you!
Can I prep in advance? At what stage can I freeze it?
I made these ribs and shared with my Son. He loved them and asked how I prepared them. Thanks Divas, best beef ribs I’ve ever made!
Just put a batch in the fridge to marinate. Will be the 4th time we have made these. Awesome recipe, awesome ribs…have even sent the link to the sister in law. She loves them too
Just put a batch in the fridge to marinate. Will be the 4th time we have made these. Awesome recipe, awesome ribs…have even sent the link to the sister in law. She loves them too
Today is the second time I am making this recipe. I did leave out the Cajun spice because I do not have any and also the liquid smoke.
Today I can only let marinate half hour but I am certain thus will turn out great.
He loved them the last time.
There are only the two of us so we only use a little over a pound so it does finish cooking just a bit earlier.
Thanks for the recipe…I truly do not know anything about cooking and thus recipe makes me look good.
I am making this right now! My house smells amazing. Thank you for the recipe!
Thank you for this trying this tomorrow ?
Delish!
Looks yummy. Thanks for sharing your recipe. I love also the singing voice in process.
Haha thanks love!
I’ve made this recipe 5 times and every time my family wants more!!! The ribs are so flavorful!!!
Yayy!! I’m so glad it’s becoming a fav in your house!
BBQ sauce? Lazy recipe
Hahaha! I have several homemade BBQ sauces on the site if you’d like to make them. I’m ok with being lazy every now and then though.
Great response,,, cant wait to try this recipe
I know what your husband is talking about! There is no need to try another recipe. Thank You!
Thank you for this recipe!! My family was craving BBQ Beef ribs and I came across this recipe. It was SUPER fast and easy to prep. I left out the cajun spice and chili powder since my mom can’t eat spicy foods. I also wasn’t able to let it marinate for an hour due to time and had to cook it at a higher temp for a shorter period; however, everything came out really delicious!! Will try this again when I have more time to let it slow cook and marinate! Thank you again!
So glad these came out good for you Nicole!
HI I enjoy cooking and have oven cooked short ribs for a long time I prefer long short ribs about 8 to 10 inches long , I spay my roaster with Pam ,so it cleans easily then put the ribs in the pan put in 2 cups of water ,,, yes I said water ,then sprinkle seasoning salt over it or make my own sauce ,,, sauce is ,,, 2 tablespoons soya sauce one tablespoon woshishire sauce , 2. Tablespoons ketchup one tablespoon grape seed oil pour over and cook slow at 250f for three to three and a half hours then I make gravy from the drippings and every one raves how good it is and it’s quite and easy,,
I found some beef spare ribs at the store a few days ago. I bought them not knowing how to cook them. That is until I saw your recipe. I’ll using it to make these ribs over the weekend. Will post my results
I made these and love, love them. Let them sit all night before cooking in slow oven for 4 hrs. I am going to make these every time I can find beef ribs.
Oven on 250 that seems really high in fact my oven doesn’t go any higher?????
It’s in Fahrenheit 🙂
Seriously the most delicious meat I’ve ever eaten, and i cooked it!! Can’t wait to make this again, and can’t thank you enough for sharing your recipe.
I made these wonderfully tasty ribs the other night and I was told by my husband thAt I was not to make any changers to the recipe.
Thank you so much for publishing.
I made these ribs and they were delish!
I’ve made these 3-5 times already and they are currently in the fridge for tonight’s dinner! These are excellent every time I’ve made them and are now a staple in my collection of recipes.
I made this for my Sunday dinner and it was my first time making ribs, they were absolutely delicious!
Made the Beef ribs today
Awesome????????????????
We have 7.5 lbs beef back ribs and I want to try this – any tips? Is the cook time about the same? Thanks!
Really, really good. Thanks for sharing
Gonna try to make these for my wife before she komes home I hope she likes……..
I’m making this again today with short ribs….
These ribs are everything you say they are, excellent! I was also very interested in those cinnamon sweet potatoes, would you entertain posting that recipe also?
These look great. I have a tip though. Consider removing the thin membrane on the underside of the ribs before applying the spice rub. It allows more rub to contact the meat and bone, making it more flavourful and tender. This applies to all types of ribs.
Gotta go to the market to grab a meat to do it as soon as possible!
These are soooo soooo good — I make them every other week and my boyfriend loses his mind over them every time! I end up cooking two racks so we can have them 2 night in a row! haha 🙂
These turned out fantastic. Didn’t need sauce. Soo good.
Making too today. We’ll see how it goes!
I used to frequent Tony Roma’s in Singapore to get my beef rib fix. When we moved to Nelson in New Zealand, I thought that would be the end of eating it. But I chanced upon your recipe on a Rasa Malaysia Facebook post and decided to give it a try. So easy to do and yet so delicious! Thank you!
I am making these again today! We love them! Thank you for the awesome recipe!
Do you cut the ribs. Up before cooking?
Thank You, thank you, thank you for such a delicious and simple barbecue short ribs recipe. I love it!
I left the ribs in the oven for5hrs and still tough I think the oven temp could b at least 160 c i don’t think this recipe will make it in my folder Iv tasted much better
Made this recipe today and I’m a Believer! Ribs were so tender. I used my own pre-made seasoning mix and used an oven broiler pan to catch all the drippings. The ribs finished in 3.25 hours in my oven. This recipe is a keeper!
I’ve made these twice and they are always a big hit! Delicious recipe!
Made these for my husband’s birthday they were amazing and he completely loved them. Now I make them all the time. I used chipotle bbq sauce instead .Thank you divas amazing and tender fall off th3 bone
This recipe was outstanding and the ribs were to die for!!!! It doesn’t get better than this. I didn’t add the extra salt. It just fell off the bone. Will never use any recipe but this one again….ever.
Can I use this same recipe with Pork ribs?
Just made this the other night. We didn’t have any brown sugar and the receipe came out perfect. I would consider this as restaurant quality…..very good blend of spices etc. Thank you for sharing…..I’ll make sure to keep this receipe for a lifetime.
Delicious!
Wow! Is all I can say about these ribs, so delicious. I follow your recipe to a T and they are perfect the 3 times I have made this. Everybody raves, never any leftovers. Love, love, love your site and delucious recipes. Thanks for making me a better cook!
I made these for Thanksgiving with a few ribs in the freezer from 4th of July. Needless to say, I’m seasoning more now 🙂 They were such a hit at the gathering I attended, someone actually hid the remaining bones! Ha… Must have been good….I mean great! Thanks Divas
Do you soak or marinate your ribs in apple cider vinegar ?
Just super good. I add a little water to the foil pac as I do for pork ribs.
This was a delicious receipe. I used flank cut as a first beef rib encounter but i will use the full beef rib on next experience.
Wow! The ribs came out great. The rub recipe is a keeper, Thanks
Girl, these ribs are the truth! I just took mine out of the oven. I almost ate the whole pan..LOL! Great recipe, that I will be making over and over again.
Delicious
Will you marry me..
DELICIOUS! I took them to a football party and everyone loved them. Great job on this recipe!!!
I made these yesterday with beef and pork ribs. Very good. I had no left overs. A great way to make ribs!
Man do I wish I’d looked at this 3-1/2 – 4 hours ago.. It sounds perfect but I was starting too late.. I will have to try them another day soon!
Im not really a DIVA, but I am a single father of 2. Thank you sooo much for your help and these recipes. My kids think their dad is the greatest chef in the world. What they don’t know is that daddy gets his recipes from you. Im not sure who the Mrs. will be, but I hope she knows how to find this website. Happy Holidays
These ribs are the best I’ve ever made, I follow the recipe exactly and they are delicious!
I am very sorry but i can not enter my details so I couild not post my nice comment
Thank you my friend God bless
You forgot a critical step… Removing the sinew(thin layer of tissue that is tough to eat) from the bone side of the ribs prior to cooking. Run a sharp knife down the center of the underside (boneside) prior to cutting into individual ribs, this will expose the sinew and make it easy to peel away. (trying to peel the sinew off in large pieces works best.) Removing the sinew makes the ribs much more enjoyable to eat and reduces waste because the meat is much more accessible.
Your food taste as good as you look, great recipe.
Super simple, totally AWESOME!!!!!! Thanks
We just had these. My husband as he ate them: These are good!
My husband as he put his plate in the sink: Thanks, hon. Those ribs were great!
My husband later in the night: Did I tell you those ribs were good?
Thank you! This was my first time making them. It will not be the last.
I TRIED THIS RECIPE IT IS AWESOME THANK YOU 🙂
Simplest recipe ever, the ribs were simply amazing!!
Excellent! Served at football
I made these last weekend using beef back ribs. Followed the recipe except I left out the liquid smoke. So tender! This recipe is a keeper. Will make again.
Second time I’ve made these I don’t add the salt I put them on the BBQ to finish and baste till there sticky everyone loves them never have leftovers . Thanks diva’s
I am preparing these Ribs for my birthday next lweek. Watching how you moved with simple grace and ease during preparston made me wanting to have a Rib at that moment. Great simple recipe. Thanks.
How many does this recipe serve? I’m going to make for my husbands birthday dinner next week 🙂
wow so many great reviews. Just bought some and will be making this week! Can’t wait to try. Hubby is always asking for beef ribs!
Absolutely the best beef ribs I have ever had! The only change I made when I took them out of the oven I put them on my grill on low and added the barbecue sauce.
That sounds wonderful! So glad you enjoyed!
I absolutely love all of your recipes!!! Thank you!!
Thanks so much love!
These are the absolute best ribs EVER!!! I will not make any other recipe!
I’ve been looking for a recipe like this! Going to make it tonight for family!
I too have made these about 10 times and they never let me down. So. So. Good.
Thank you.
I’m so glad you like them!!!
I’ve made this probably 10 times now. I’m making them right now for a potluck. You’ve spoiled me forever! Everytime I’ve had them elsewhere I’ve been disappointed and think to myself “I can make them better than that.” Thank you for this great recipe!!
I tried this recipe tonight but didn’t really have the time for marinating or the 3 1/2 hours to cook them. So, I used all of the same ingredients, wrapped them tight in foil(skipping the marinating), and cooked on 300 for 2 1/2 hours. They were AWESOME and very tender!! Great seasons!! This was my first time EVER cooking beef ribs and I think it’s safe to say that it was a success! My family was very pleased!! Thanks for sharing! ❤
Awesome recipe!! Thanks for creating and sharing. Yummy
The best ribs hands down. My husband loves them and we don’t grill ribs anymore. That says a lot for my husband who is a grill master!
For someone, who’s not allowed in the kitchen. Following the instructions and a little help from daughter in finding the spices. The ribs turnout amazing. Will definitely book mark this recipe for future. Thank you
OMG === Did these ribs for Labor Day. Off the chain good!! So tender and juicy
These ribs were FANTASTIC!!! My husband kept going on and on about these and he normally doesn’t. I am baking these again, soon!!
I’m going to give these a try in the crackpot. I can’t wait!!!
Typing error. Crockpot
First of all: I can’t cook and I don’t bother with recipes that illustrate this SO I pick ones and cross my fingers that after I’ve screwed it up it might still be edible. However these ribs made me look like a rock star!! They were easy delicious amazing I was complimented by the self proclaimed BBQ masters we had over for dinner. I was asked Logan of questions about stripping membranes which completely grossed me out but I guess it a “rib thing”. Anyway I didn’t (and frankly don’t ever plan on doing it) and ribs were phenomenal. Thanks so much for sharing.
ExCellent!!!!!!!!!!
Excellent! They are in the oven now. Second time in two weeks!
First time ever commenting on anything I found on the Internet…I have ruined more beef ribs than you can shake a stick at, boiling/ grilling/baking, etc., this method worked so well — followed the directions to the letter. 3 1/2 to 4 hours in the oven at 250 degrees and the meat literally fell off the bones. These ribs are the best I have ever had, and I made them myself.
Forever grateful!
Yon
Postscript: I give this 5 stars even though it would only let me select 4 stars
My very picky Husband (especially with ribs) said these ribs were outstanding. Thank you for sharing your recipe.
Where you’re from Monique I’m from Florida where are you from
I made your recipe and we had these beef ribs for dinner tonight. First, they turned out wonderful! Second, I did not use a lot of BBQ (I also use Sweet Baby Ray’s) as you suggested before putting then under the broiler and they so don’t need it. First time ever I haven’t added BBQ sauce to a rib. Crazy flavorful! Third, the only thing I will change for next time is to omit the oregano. To me, it added a flavor that didn’t belong. Oh, and I used smoked Paprika instead of regular. Thanks for posting this!
Unfortunately, I cannot tell you if these were good or not because they went so fast at my cookout, I never had a chance to taste it! Honestly, I received so many compliments and rave reviews that I KNOW they were a big hit. Next year, I’ll double or triple the amount. Thanks for the great recipe.I made this along with the pulled chicken recipe…which my guests loved, too!
I cook ribs kinda frequently for a family of 3…250 in the oven once I retire at 2-3 a.m….by 10 next morning, fall off the bone…im eager to try these short ribs in the same fashion????
They are in the oven right now. Timer is set for three and a half hrs. I’ll rate this recipe after the taste test. 🙂
I give it a five for ease of prep.
Waiting patiently ,
Joe
Thank you Alex Horwitz. I hate it when I get a recipe and it does not tell you how many servings!!
I wanted to rate this recipe with 5 stars, however, the website wouldn’t allow me.
I tried this recipe last night and the ribs were amazing!!! This one is definitely a keeper ????
Making your recipe today.
Low and slow true fall off the bone deliciousness!! Hubby and I love this recipe. This is my go-to for short ribs. The seasoning mix is spot on. We usually skip the BBQ sauce because they are so good with just the dry rub.
Gotta say:. These ARE the best ribs!!!! My husband and I have never had any better! Good job, and thanks for making this recipe available.
These ribs are amazing!!! I received so many compliments!! My son said they were so good, he didn’t even need barbecue sauce.
Did you remove the membrane?
i’ve tried many recipes for ribs and always been a bit disappointed however, these came out truly wonderful. the only ingredient i didn’t use was liquid smoke as i don’t think you can get that in australia but, that aside, i followed the recipe to the ‘t’ and they came out perfect. this will become a new fave! many thanks.
gary
Made these and my husband and kids LOVED them! Great recipe…Thanks!!
These ribs were a hit at my cookout this year! Every compliment was about the flavor and the fact that the meat was so moist, tender and just fell off the bone. Excellent Recipe! Thank you! I followed the recipe and didn’t make any changes or substitutions.
I’m just so in love with these ribs. Thank you so much for sharing with us your recipe. Just awesome.
First time cooking ribs and they turned out great! Thank you for the recipe!
TBesy ribs we’ve made in 30 years ????
Used this recipe last night(4th of July ’17), I was the hit of the party; we like pork but are not crazy about it, so I came in to save the party, bearing gifts, brought in my beef ribs already marinated, ready to go in the oven, everyone bet those were going to be the leftover ribs, HA! it’s all everyone ate! plus the Farmer Johns sausages(Louisiana Hot). At the end of the party there were all types of ribs leftover, but mine were all gone, and people were still hitting me up for the recipe. Thank you Monique from SD California
I cooked your beef ribs this past Sunday. I followed your recipe to the letter. They were FABULOUS. MY HUSBAND LOVED THEM So did I. I will for sure be cooking these again . Thank you so much for posting.
Julie
Amazing!!! I made these tonight. First time ever cooking ribs. They turned out perfectly and so easy! Thank you for a definite keeper recipe.
Nailed it!
First time making spareribs for Fathers Day. OMG! Your seasoning with of course the sauce was delicious!! I was a little off guarded smelling the chilli when mixing the seasonings together,, I would think the spareribs would have a strong chilli taste. So I was a bit neevous, but trusted you since I love your other recipes i’ve tried. IT WAS A HIT!! Thank you !!!
These ribs were the best!!!!!!!!!! seasoned to perfection and so tender.
Sort of exspensive but Italian salad dressing replaced the olive oil. For the tang of it. Picnchoose you know what you like.
First time making barbecue beef ribs and they came out fantastic! Thanks for sharing this recipe. Making it again tomorrow for the second time. The family really enjoyed it! Thanks again!
The first time I used your recipe was over a month ago.
Does,these ribs taste just as good in a slower or better in an oven?
FantasticJust made. Never cooked beef ribs before. They were so tender. I didn’t have all the ingredients as recipe, so I improvised. Thank you for sharing this recipe. They were soooo good. Husband loved them.
how many does this recipe serve?
oh oh oh sounds FABULOUS!! trying MEMORIAL day!! Ill let you know!!
Lord, have mercy! These are so good. I have country style ribs so mine took a little longer (4 1/2 hours and I let them sit for 1/2 hour). I used the Sweet Baby Ray’s under the broiler right before serving, too. I served them with homemade baked mac n cheese (with Wisconsin chedder and smoked Gouda), fresh spinach from the farmer’s market with olive oil and garlic, a beautiful Italian loaf of bread and a delish ripe watermelon for dessert (thank you, Aldi’s, for great out of season produce and no, I don’t want to know where it came from). It was one of those dinners you can just look at and KNOW it’s going to be great. The rub you gave was perfect and those ribs were to die for. hanks for the inspiration for a great dinner. The husband was thrilled with it and so were my friends!
I was going to try your recipe but I get so tired of listening to your story before I got to the recipe that I just had to quit. If you want to do that put it on a blog stay focused and just put your recipe on the recipe blog
Absolutely delicious! My 67 year old father commented “that was the BEST marinade I’ve ever had!”
First let me say that the whole time these were baking I had serious doubts about them. I just knew they were going to be awful and I had people coming for dinner, and what was I thinking trying out a brand new recipe on folks I hadn’t seen in years, and I was on the brink of a nervous breakdown. WHOA – was I wrong. They were so incredibly tender that almost every single bone fell off when I tried to pick them up. I had a bowl of rib meat that was almost unrecognizable and was so incredibly good, tender, moist, full of flavor…there is no way to describe how good these ribs are. Just scrumptious!!!! I served with home made potato salad and cucumbers and onions in vinegar and it was beyond good. I then served Monique’s carrot cake and I was a star! I’ll definitely be making these again, but may tweak the seasonings just a tad as I like ribs with a little bit of a kick. Thank you, Monique!!!!
Hi! Thank you for the recipe! We loved it, so so good!
OMG………..these are the BEST ribs………EVER!!! Thank you so much! <3.
Oh my Gosh!! I made these Ribs for Easter and they were a hit. My Family loved them. I will keep this recipe an pass it on. Love love love the flavor.
Got them in the oven now.
Looks and sounds amazing.
Will reply on how the herd liked them afterwards.
Hi! Will it be ok if i leave the meat to marinate overnight?
I made this yesterday and it was delicious! My husband couldn’t stop raving. I’m not a cook, I am someone who can follow a recipe. And this was super easy to follow. I did not have the time to let the meat dry for two hours before seasoning, but I did dry it as much as possible with paper towels and it came out great. Thank you! This is a new favorite.
Another winner that I’m making again tonight for my wife. Pretty great recipes you create Monique, thanks for sharing.
I made these last night and my guy loved them and said to make them again ~ thanks!
Agreed. Best. Ribs. Ever.
Have never made before, very easy!!!
I made these for my husband and altered the recipe a tad to make it Whole30 compliant and let you, he tells me that he dreams about them at night haha! Thank you so much for making my husband’s beef ribs come true! He invites all of his friends over for beef ribs to brag on me and it makes me feel so amazing! Thank you!!
Sincerely,
Madina @ http://www.thecityofhearts.com
Did you know this website printed your recipe? They said it was “adapted” but it’s a direct copy.
https://www.keyingredient.com/recipes/2047155032/easy-oven-baked-beef-ribs/?locale=en_US
Made it at least 10 times! Always big success.
Thanks for a great recipe 🙂
Trying this as I am typing!! LOL
They don’t Fall off the bone. These “divas” can”t cook. Worst recipe ever.
Fantastic oven ribs, fantastic ribs all around!!
Fantastic oven ribs, fantastic ribs all around!! 5 STARS
Just curious, why do all online recipes require a backstory? Why not just the ingredients and cook time?
Well all I can say is this will be the 3rd time I have made these Ribs and my family won’t eat any other’s. Love the seasoning, I personally omitted the liquid smoke I love the smoke flavor but the others in the house don’t so I lost. This will definitely be the only ribs I make.
They were absolutely fabulous. Every one raved about them. Great recipe. You rock. As always I could not get the 5 stars to work. I give it 100 stars
I just wanna say…..AWESOME!!!! I used this recipe last summer for a bbq with a ton of friends and family over so I had 4 racks (just double up on the recipe) there were no left overs lol, but a friend who wasn’t so into beef ribs asked me if I could use the same rub for pork ribs, I figured why not so I’m putting it to the test tonight for my wife and kids on a double rack of pork back rib, I’m sure they will be just as scrumptious lol thanks for making me look like a hero!
I’m going to try these tomorrow! Can you also share your recipe for the Cinnamon Mashed Sweet Potatoes?
Best. Ribs. Ever.
How long did your ribs cook in the oven?
I usually don’t post my comments, however, I couldn’t pass this opportunity up. I made this recipe exactly as advised. OMG!!!
The ribs turned out fantastic. Everything mentioned in the video was true. The rub was perfect, not to spicy. The meat was tender & fall off the bone. I will totally be making this again. GREAT Recipe!
P.S. A rack of ribs is enough for 2-3 servings.
Loved it!
Looks super easy and delicious! I’m gonna try these today and hope they come out as good as yours look! Your video was great and presented fabulously! ????
What a simply divine recipe ! Thank you for sharing I look forward to finding more gems on your website ….
Can you use baby back ribs for this recipe as well? If so, would the cooking time and such be the same?
Cheers!
Never cooked ribs until now. Wanted something that I didn’t have to watch or worry about the result at the end. I’ve been using this over a yr and it works perfectly every time. I amped up the temp to 275 to make the cook time shorter and this works well too.
Grateful for this recipe!
Trying this tonight… Actually have the ribs marinating now. Only thing I changed is instead of broiling them to make the sauce sticky, I’m gonna throw them on the BBQ so I get the smoky flavor without the liquid smoke.
The time and effort put into the back story and video make me want to try this even more! I have been looking for a great beef rib recipie, and cannot wait to serve this to the ones I love! Thank you and have a blessed new year!
I had never made beef ribs, so I needed a general idea of how to cook them in the oven. I stumbled across this recipe as I was doing some quick research and when I tell you it’s the BEST ever!! I’ve had beef ribs before, made by others, but never made them for myself. The recipe is simple and the ingredients consist of items I already have in my pantry. Only thing I did differently was allow the ribs to marinate overnight. That’s only because I totally forgot I had game night with the fellas later that evening, so I didn’t need to cook dinner. The ribs came out so fall off the bone tender and flavorful. I will be making this again.
You dont have to make a rub, brush on the oil and sprinkle on the spices and brown sugar. A good recipe but your prelude is as boring as f**k. NO ONE cares!
Absolutely awesome ! Meat was deliciously well-seasoned and as promised, fall off the bone tender. Easy , not overly time consuming, and very impressive flavour. Thanks for sharing!
Dear Diva:
I just made your oven baked short ribs. Incredible!!!! The rub
The instructions and the great video made this recipe
Perfect. Thank you sooo much. Served over wide egg noodles
With a dollop of sour cream and parsley sprinkled
Over the ribs. Beautiful. You are a Diva Chef.
I made these for the first time on Thanksgiving. Absolutely delicious! Can I use the same seasoning mixture from this recipe here to put on spare pork ribs for grilling???
I made these for the first time on Thanksgiving. Absolutely delicious! Can I use the same seasoning mixture on this recipe on pork spare ribs for grilling???
Very cool! I will try this and let you know how mine turn out. Video and instructions are very well presented. You should host your own TV show! 😉
Terry
These were the best. I used liquid smoke for the first time after buying it a year ago. Going to make these again today.
I cant wait to make these this weekend….I’ve made your mac and cheese , cornbread dressing and red velvet cake. Love you for all your great recipes.
Is it okay to marinate over night?
Everything SOUNDS GR8
I’ll try a few recipes and get
back to you.
could this also be done on a grill? thanks!
I have no idea why I hit play on your video. Because I hate videos and have no patience to listen to them. I can’t even remember the last time i watched a recipie video…..but ….I did….Hit Play…now I must tell you how much I enjoyed it. It was quick, funny and to the point. Could not have been any better. Going to try the recipie and I look forward to exploring your blog.
I want to make this,but I’ve never broiled anything before. Do I switch the ribs to a broiler pan?
I just finished making them for dinner. Yummy. Thank you
this is how i do mine too – and it’s true once you do it this way, you don’t ever want to go back to the OTHER way. I let mine stay in the seasoning overnight in the fridge and i use just the dry rub, with no olive oil, I’ll try your way and see how it is different – I can alway learn new tips and tricks! They look delicious!!!!
Did you say ‘air booty slap dance???’ Had me cracking up. 🙂 That’s the kind of eating we want. The kind that makes out spouses do the air booty slap dance. My husband loves BBQ ribs, so will have to try this. Love you!!
This iss my fikrst timje ggo tto ssee aat hre aand i aam really plesassant tto read alll at ssingle
place.
How did I forget about you Diva?!
I remember a red velvet recipe I did a while back.
I’m doing your ribs tomorrow.
that’s a well done video!
Thanks Becca!
Thank you my sister for a easy way to hook them beef ribs.
It a grea way to cook beef ribs.They was great and easy my sister. Thanks
I made these ribs last night Omg they was so good and tender, my daughter enjoyed them. I have made several recipes from you and all have been amazing. This morning I am making banana bread. I have been waiting for those bananas to turn brown. The crazy thing is I don’t like bananas, but i like banana bread. Will tell you how it goes. It’s my first time baking one.
YAY! An oven recipe that makes sense to me. I kept running across this ‘steam’ type recipe… I’m going try these for my party in a coupe of weeks
The bomb.com!!
Can u use boneless beef ribs
I had to do some substitutions on the seasonings, but this recipe was still AWESOME……WHERE HAS IT BEEN ALL MY LIFE!!!! Lol….LOVE IT!!!!
Can I use short ribs instead?
Have you tried with Pork Ribs?? We tried this with beef ribs but there was just not a lot of meat on them,.,i was thinking to try with Baby Back Pork Ribs. Just wondering if you had tried it like that
Outstanding!!!! The best rib recipe I’ve tried.
EVERYONE loved these ribs!!! My bf said he never cared for oven baked ribs…til now! Had them a week ago for Labor Day and they still are talking about them! Delish!!!
This is a very easy and delicious recipe!
Absolutely delicious!!! This recipe is a keeper! Thank you for sharing!
Ribs in the oven as I type..sounds delicious, had to try. Will rate wen done. Preparation was easy and I had all spices in my cabinet except oregano..I always make sure I have that on hand cuz I use it often, I must have ran out n didn’t realize it. Oh well..I’m sure ribs will still be delicious.
Everyone’s made baby backs, or pork ribs, but not nearly as many have tried beef ribs. I tried several different ways to make beef ribs, until I stumbled across this recipe. I’ve made these 4 times now, and they are indeed the best beef ribs I’ve ever had. You need to try these.
I omit the liquid smoke, but use smoked salt and smoked paprika, and use a hot or spicy version of Cajun spice and chili powder….it doesn’t really make them hot, but just adds an additional element. After 3 1/2 hours they go on the grill for 10 minutes for BBQ sauce application.
These are the best.
These look soooo wonderful. If I can make them correctly, I will be a hero for sure. Wish me luck!
P.S. I’ve always rinsed any meat I cook with. Steak, fish, chicken… It seems the right thing to do knowing it is being handled by many. Is that not right??
When are you going to put out some new recipes???? We starving ????????
This is great because I don’t have a grill, so I can still make ribs.
OMG, This sounds soooo perfect!
xoxo, Colli
my beautyblog – tobeyoutiful
Girrrrrrl, let me tell you something! I made these ribs the other day and they were oh so good. My son who rarely likes anything “new” even ate them. Thanks for the recipe. This is my new favorite thing to cook and eat : )
I made the ribs and they were DELICIOUS……Can I use this recipe for a tri-tip roast?
When we put the bbq sauce on it should it be uncovered?
I can’t wait to try this recipe
These ribs are DELICIOUS! You must try them. 🙂
Can anyone tell me why one should rinse the ribs. I’ve never before heard of rinsing off meat. That has my mind boggled. So, I’m going to skip that step and if I die, it’s my fault – haha
Because the guy packing the meat is picking his nose and scratching his balls on his break…
Cthu good one
LMFAO
Ditto
Lol
LOL!!!
LMAO!
I’m not eating at your house ! you are nasty !
probably cleaner than your cockroach infested counter!! we have all ate a booger but not a roach that we know of !!!lol
First, never fear: you won’t die! It’s just that most meat is processed in enormous plants that may leave pieces of bone or matter from, shall we say, other portions of the steer. In addition, the liquid that they’ve been sitting in is mainly old blood and can add metallic or other semi-spoiled tastes to the ribs. But the main focus of the first step is actually to get the ribs very DRY; the olive oil won’t stick with water on the ribs, and then the rub hasn’t got anything to adhere to.
Yuk. You always rise of meat. Meat packers drop the meat on the floor. As well as it touches multiple people and surfaces before you see it.
Not washing meat??? Why wouldn’t you??? That is exactly why I cook my own food…GROSS!!!!
I can’t believe you never heard of rinsing the meat! Being handled by strange hands, sitting in plastic wrap with old blood and rinsing off tiny pieces of shattered bone or metal are just a few of the reasons! Everything that is handled by strange human hands should always be rinsed off!
I washed off all my meats. You never know who handled the meat and how they handed it. So i want to know that what i cooked is clean ans undefiled by anyone ele’s hands.
Very easy and quite delicious. Try this!
I didn’t know what to expect, but they turned out great. I think it’s keeping them sealed in foil to allow the steam to help cook them. I think they would have been done sooner like 2.5 hours as we added 1/4 cup water to allow for more steam.
especially the broil part, just touches them off. I think next time I’ll grill the final few minutes with the barbecue sauce.
These were amazing! Super easy too!
SO glad you enjoyed them!
Made these today! 1st time no leftovers! My family loved them.
I love slow cooked beef ribs, I haven’t tried this recipe yet but I wanted to share. I use 4 jars of VH strong garlic sauce for two racks of ribs, 225-250 for about 4 hours as this suggests, that’s it toss all in a roasting pan, cover and let it marinate all day then toss it in the oven and cooked covered. After the ribs are tender I put the sauce on the oven and reduce it for a dipping sauce while the ribs cool a bit and get separated. I’m sure there is a good homemade one but I’ve never even bothered to look for one they are sweet and sticky and you’ll want to drink the left overs.
I forgot to include I marinate them meat side down and cook meat side up. Hope you like it if you try it.
Loved it!!
Making these tonight…I love this recipe because it doesn’t require a 24 hr marinade! Thank you! Was wondering if you used short ribs or back ribs?
Very good had the last night, thank you.
The grocery store has back ribs & short ribs. Which should I get for this recipe?
I’ve used both for this recipe and they came out great but the short ribs are the best
Never had beef ribs before tonight. This recipe is excellent! Thanks, Ms. Diva. I know you can cook!
I frequently cook Ribs in the Crockpot / Slow Cooker during the Winter months and they turn out amazing. Season as you like, cover with BBQ sauce and cook on low for 6-8 hours.
I usually make pork ribs but decided to try beef ribs. I was looking online for a good beef rib recipe and yours looked the best. It’s looks so yummy. I am going to make them tomorrow for Memorial Day. Thanks for the recipe.
I don’t use the broiler I just saw them up uncovered for about an hour adding sauce again halfway through.
I don’t have brown sugar… can I do without it or can I use white sugar?
These are awesome and yes they work great in a slow cooker as well. Just brown them in a large deep pan on the stove top first and pop them in the slow cooker. 4 to 6 hours later they are to die for.
These were amazing! The only thing I did that was different was instead of broiling them I put them on the BBQ for a few minutes. Everyone loved them!
I just made this, because I was tired of plain old Montreal Seasoning. My husband said, “When you make beef ribs in the future, make them like this!! These are the best beef ribs I’ve ever had.” And that was even without the BBQ sauce!! Thanks for the great recipe 🙂
Thank you for sharing love this recipe
These ribs were so mmm mmm yummy! These ribs were so full of favor and the meat just fall off the bones! Thank you so much for this recipe! My family and I love it!
I wonder if you could pop the ribs into a slow cooker for the day, rather than the oven??
Funny I just put mine in the slow cooker 2 mins ago and then scrolled down and read your question regarding it. Did you try it? My plan is to take it out after 5 hrs, brush in sauce and then stick it in the oven.
Was wondering the same thing Eileen.
I make mine in the crock pot. Shake A LOT of garlic powder, onion powder, pepper, and Goya Adobo Seasoning. Crock till tender. About 5-7 hours. then I take them out and put them on a baking tray. Add BBQ sauce-smear all over. Broil for a few minutes to crisp them up. Perfect every time
Yes however still sauce and broil at the end.
I was wondering the same thing.
I’ve made BBQ beef ribs using a slow cooker in the past and they turned out well – fall off the bone. I can’t wait to try this blend of spices! Thanks Monique.
I’m sure you could! I’d do about 8 hours on low and make sure to sear them before putting them in the crock pot 🙂
My boyfriend goes crazy for these ribs. I did make an adjustment when it comes to the seasoning. I didn’t use chili powder or brown sugar. The reason is because when i first made them I was out of both. I use this chipotle mesquite seasoning my sister gave me a while back. Also i hunted for the mesquite flavored liquid smoke that last time I made them. The target near my job had it so i bought two. these ribs are amazing!! I have made them five times. Also we will be having them for Easter tomorrow. One more thing i use two different types of baby rays.
I made these twice now I’m about to make them again thanks for the recipe
Hi – What’s the chance we could freeze the ribs between stages 12 and 13 and then grill on a charcoal bed instead of broiling and then serve? (Have you tried this?)
I am not a cooker but I tried your recipe and my parents loved it! I wanted to do something nice for them, although I just cooked the meat. Thank you so much!
I wish someone would say whether or not you cook these bone up, or bone down. ????
Bone down
Ohmigod these are unfrigenbelievable! I made them for my mum and husband and they could not stop raving about them. Will definitely be making them over and over again!
I just found you, and you sound so cute. The recipe was Spectacular, you made my Dinner Party a Smash. Thanks, keep up the great work. G
this is THE best ribs recipe EVA!!! i am making it again, and it’s even faster in the pressure cooker than the oven…Thank you! will NEVER use any other recipe again!
One of the easiest, and best recipes I have ever made- hardest part is waiting 4 hours till it’s ready for the table! Thanks for posting the recipe, and video.
This was my first time cooking ribs. This recipe was easy to do, and delicious! My family absolutely loved them. I decided to use 2x the rub (seasoning) for extra flavour, however, next time I will reduce the amount of salt. Delicious nonetheless.
Yasss bombest ribs evaaaaaa
I have boneless pork ribs. Would it cook the same?
Once again your recipe was a hit with my family.
I made these for some friends a few months ago and they’re coming over for Super Bowl and asked me to make them again. They were a hit! I will always make them like this.
Thanks for posting your recipe!
Have you ever used this recipe and cooked them in the crock pot first? Then broiled them?
Hi, I bought boneless ribs today because, the local supermarket didn’t have precut ribs with the bone. I was wondering if I could use this same recipe for my boneless ribs?
Just followed this recipe and blew my parent’s socks off! Thanks.
Note: im in Arizona so the weather was nice enough to finish the ribs in tbe bbq, worked awesome
Hey – those ribs sound (and look) off the chain – I make a similar recipe with pork baby backs and the only difference is I don’t let them sit in the fridge at all and I add a little beer and worchester sauce to the pouch – I cook the pork a little less 2/1/2 hours and then I take them out of the pouch, raise the oven to 350 and cook them a little longer (about 20 min). I finish them under the broiler or on the grill with a glaze made by cooking down the liquid in the pouch and adding some Sweet Baby Ray’s (of course), Honey BBQ sauce.
I’m pre-rating this recipe and then going out to get some beef ribs this weekend and see if I can’t do it proud. Thanks!
Making beef ribs Sunday just need to pick up Cajun seasoning
brown sugar n packed chili powder
Quote from my husband: “Outstanding! Every bite blows me away!” Will be making these regularly! Thanks!
Made this last week!
Used Pork Ribs instead, cause i was going to make a different recipe until i stumbled across this one, and instead of onion powder (cause i ran out) I finely chopped shallots.
It was my first time making ribs and now for sure it wont be the last!
It was so simple and very delicious!
This was delish! I had too use some pork ribs also and it still came out great everyone loved it..I even had some left over seasonings so I stashed that til next time
WOW!! I made these 3 days in a row!! My husband ABSOLUTELY LOVE this recipe. I couldeat this literally every single day. (I love beef)
I went online in search of a recipe for oven bbq beef ribs and i kept passing up the recipes until i came across yours? The slow cooking sounded good to i gave it a try tonight for xmas. I was so disappointed when i found out i had everything except the brown sugar!,, so i decided to use molasses i had in the cabinet. It still came out good. I like the part where you seal it up and put it in the oven and not have to check on it for hours. It was falling off the bone. Everyone loved it. Thanks so much for sharing this? I will only cook beef ribs this way for now on…Thanks..
I also never made beef ribs before I tried the recipe last week. I pretty much fully followed this recipe. The ribs were mouth watering. Just went back to store for more to share with daughter.
~Tried this recipe yesterday and the ribs were absolutely fabulous!!!!
~Best recipe ever for beef ribs that were so tender and so tasty~
~thank you for this recipe Monique~
First time I’ve ever cooked ribs, so I didn’t have high expectations for myself going into this – but holy moly, this recipe is BOMB.
I only had a little over an hour to marinade and slow cooked for 3 hours, spooned on a bit of sweet baby rays at the end and thew it in the broiler for a few minutes – had corn, mashed potatoes, spinach, and crescent rolls on the side. Didn’t have a chance to have Thanksgiving dinner with my family and this definitely made up for it!
My husband thought the seasoning was great and that they were cooked just the right amount of time.
Definitely will be adding this recipe to my repertoire, it was easy and taste like someone who knew what they were doing made it – I feel like I hit a home run 🙂
My husband loves you and your recipes! We have been cooking your meals for years now. These ribs were everything! Purchasing your cookbooks now!
Made these last night. They turned out to best beef ribs ever. Tender and so much flavor.
These were so good that I’m making them for Thanksgiving. Hubby is requesting these be added to the menu. My five year old picky eater even tore these down.
IF YOURE EATING RIBS WITH UTENSILS YOURE DOING IT WRONG! GOD GAVE US FINGERS HONEY!
Hi, amazing recipe and flavour! Made these for my wife tonight and they turned out really good. Only question I wanted to ask as this was the first time ever I cooked anything other than chicken, I found bits of fat in around the meat, is it best to have the fat taken out before?
Sorry, just want to make sure I perfect the next time i make this..
I wouldn’t, especially if you’re using beef ribs. If there’s a huge chunk on the side, then you could trim that off, but don’t trim all the fat in the ribs. That’s what keeps it from being really dry when cooked.
i’ve tried to bake ribs before with average results, i followed your guidelines and these badboys are AWESOME!!! fall off the bone and full of flavor, thks a ton…
OMG!! What a winner! ‘Marinated’ for two hours and slow baked for 3 – the meat was falling off the bone. Spice rub was 168% on the money and paired with Sweet Baby Ray (we just happened to have on hand). Do not hesitate to try this recipe. Wish I could score more than 5*
This is the BOMB!!!!!! I did exactly as the recipe calls for and they came out so tender and deliciously flavored. My family loves this recipe.
Thank you.
Great ribs, on point. Loved them!
Have you tried this in the slow cooker? If so, how long would you say to cook there?
Girl!!!! OMG I made these last night when I got off work and They were BOMBBB!!!!! Thank you so much!!
I used this recipe with my country pork ribs (that’s all I had) and marinated them for 24hrs (by accident… I went to sleep and forgot about them…lol) nevertheless the came out great!!!! Not to mention I used your weekday recipe for yams and cabbage along with my Jeffy cornbread (don’t judge me..lol)… If I keep using your site this diva just might find her a husband…. THANKS Monique… You are your sister’s keeper…lol…You’re empowering women to get back in the kitchen… Well I know I am. I will be ordering all your cookbooks.
Thanks again????
great points altogether, you just gained a new
reader. What might you recommend about your submit that you just made
a few days in the past? Any certain?
These ribs smell so f***en good.
I fixed these for dinner and they were amazing!!! There are not very many Pinterest recipes my husband likes…..he said we need to have these at least once a week!!! So this is a definite keeper!!!
Just stuck these babies in the oven, I’ll let you know how it goes! Very easy to prepare. I had every single ingredient on hand. I could tell by your video you were using beef short ribs. I used beef back ribs. I hope they come out just as good as yours! I think the back ribs have less meat on them. Thanks for sharing!
Best ribs ever. Adapted for BBQ this summer. Added a bit of BBQ sauce and water..perfection. Recipe works for all types of beef ribs.
Just made these ribs. They are amazing. Thanks for sharing 🙂
I want to try making this recipe I want to cook it today but server tomorrow do you think you will come out normal if I warm it up tomorrow ??
Don’t wash and dry the meat!
Excess moisture on meat’s surface thwarts the Maillard reaction, the intricate chemical process that occurs when carbohydrate molecules react with amino acids, yielding the coveted sear on that steak.
And washing it increases the risk of cross-contamination.
Ribs were so good!!!! Thank you so much
Just wondering, how much do you pay for Beef ribs?
I paid $2.69 per lb., but you can pay 3 to $3.50 per lb. I don’t buy the ones that are in cryovac packaging because they “notch” out the meaty part, maybe to use for stew meat. A lot of times you can find them in regular pks with all the meat on them. Ask the butcher.
Absolutely delicious! These are the best ribs I have ever made! The spices are perfect! Didn’t have any oregano because we don’t like it but that is the only thing different I did. Thank you so much for this recipe. Its definitely a keeper and the ribs cooked so fast! Yum!!!
I was so scared I was going to mess these up and my husband was going to be since beef ribs are soooo EXPENSIVE! I didn’t! They are delicious and sooo simple. Thank you for the recipe.
I love your website. I’m going to try a number of your recipes, but going to start with your Beef Ribs one tomorrow for Easter Dinner. Will let you know how they work out!
This recipe came up as first on a simple google search!!!! This recipe is so simple and soooo amazing!!! It rocked my man’s weeeek!!!!! This will fa’sure be a repeat recipe!!! Thanks so much for sharing! 🙂
Made these for dinner yesterday! Started in the morning with the liquid smoke and dry rub and let them sit & cook as long as you suggested. THEY WERE EXCELLENT. My husband was still talking about them this morning on our commute. Thanks! I’ll definitely bookmark these for our next BBQ.
Thank you, Thank you and Thank you!!! My lord I never saw a beef rib I could not destroy. I really was not setting my expectations to hi as I have just failed to produce a beef rib that was tender or tasty, for that matter.
Followed your recipe and directions. My wife, daughter, son-in law and grand kids were the recipients and no one was more surprised than I that everybody loved them! Fall off the bone tender and as my daughter pointed out “as good or better than the ribs we get at the restaurant”.
You have made a 56 year old grandfather very happy. Cant wait to try some of your other recipes. Thanks again.
I’m 68, wife out of town. Tried these ribs and they were so good, I went back and bought 2 more packs ($4.99/lb). I cooked for 4 hrs overnight because of a massive heat wave. Truly a keeper.
Thanks a mil.
These look sooo good. I bought some very meaty beef ribs today, and will use this recipe tomorrrow. Thanks so much! 😀
Hi! This recipe looks super delicious! But I have a question about the dry rub. I’ve never seen a BBQ dry rub recipe with cajun seasoning. Does that end up giving the finished product a kind of “Cajun” taste at all? It’s sounds interesting (in a good way), but I’m just so curious how you came to include the Cajun seasoning in the recipe!
Awesome! I’ve tried this recipe a few times now & it always comes out great w/ rave reviews. I do different variations each time. Thanks for sharing
I cooked it for 3 hours flat. Unfortunately, that was too long. The meat shrank off the bones. I’ll have to try it at 2.5 next time.
OMG Girlfriend! I don’t know whether to thank you or Grandma Barb, but these ribs had ME doing the “air booty slap dance!” lol I have a sneaking suspicion that Mister Mister is going to try to suck the chrome off the pan when he gets in from work, but that’s fine by me. Thanks for the great recipe and I will definitely hit you up soon for more ideas. Oh and BTW, for those who like it spicy, the cayenne pepper did the trick. Very little or your lips will catch fire!
I just found your site today while searching for a beef rib recipe. So far I can say I love the anecdotes and the overall layout of your site. I just slid the ribs into the oven after seasoning them with your spice combo. Of course, since I love spicy, I added a sprinkle of cayenne pepper powder. I will keep you posted and let you know how they turn out, but so far so good I think! Thanks!
I’ll try some tonight hpe it will be very delicious. Hoooow I’m starving now.
My husband is Jewish, so obviously he doesn’t eat pork, but I was DYING for ribs, so I bought beef ribs just because I saw this recipe. OMG ! We can keep ribs in the house now!!!!
Thank you! Family loved it, great recipe. Definitely a keeper. Lost track of time so I bumped the over to 350 and shorted bake time and came out great.
Hubby wanted pork ribs instead of beef. So I used this recipe on pork ribs and OMG! Such flavor! So tender and down right delicious! Will definitely cook again. Next time I will try the beef ribs!
Let me tell you. I had picked up some beef ribs especially for this recipe. Well my husband decided he wanted pork ribs instead of beef. I had no idea what to do as my husband cooks the pork ribs here. I wanted to show him I ciukd cook pork ribs too so I used this recipe of spices on the pork ribs. When I tell you these ribs were delicious. I mean delicious! Thank you Diva!
I was looking to do something different with the beef ribs and like always I come to your site or youtube page! I followed it but didn’t really measure it out(Instinct cooking like my mama say) and the ribs came out good!! I didn’t really had time to let it marinate but I just added a little extra seasoning. Love your recipes!! Big fan of yours for a few years now!!!
Wow! Delicious! They just fell off the bone and were tender and juicy… Thanks!
Gonna try next with Boneless Chuck Short Ribs for our New Year’s party tomorrow night. Very simple to prepare which is good since I’m doing 10 pounds of them…
I tried this today and my kids are licking the bones dry LOL. I am a newbie to cooking and will be trying many more recipes on this site. Thank you!!!
I’ve had my beef ribs in the freezer for about two weeks now. Today I finally seasoned them! I didn’t use oregano I didn’t have any plus I’m not a huge fan of it. I no longer eat pork and I used to love barbecue ribs. I did use the liquid smoke and I purchased it in mesquite flavor. It smelled pretty pungent so I didn’t go crazy with it. I’m like you I also love the smoked taste. So tomorrow it the big day I’ll be baking them at 8am in time for lunch. Thank you!!!
This is my third Thanlsgiving you have pulled ne theough. My husband was the cook in the family and he was amazing. My kids absolutely loved to eat his food and he taught them how to cook. I am sad to say we lost him siddenly in 2011 to cancer, so the burden of cooking fell on me. And I do mean burden. I love to clean and I keep in immaculate house, but I absolutely hated to cook. My Mom was a wonderful cook but she only asked us to gontonschool and keep the house clean. I owe my succesful career as a court reporter to her. But With your help I have been able to make Thanksgiving a success for my family for the last three years. My kids keep going back for seconds and thirds, which of course is the ultimate compliment. Every year I was so nervous to put the dishes on the table, but this year I feel pretty confident after watched your videos these past three years. You are clear, concise, amd you have cutest personality. You really need your own cooking show. I have already let the kids taste a little bit and they are raving over it again. I wanted to reach out and encourage you to keep working your gift. You really are helping others overcome fears. you, thank you, thank you! I sincerely mean that. I was never a cook. In fact, the kitchen actually used to made me nervous.. Now with your help, and your easy-to-follow videos, I believe I can now call myself a cook. Happy Thanksgiving to you and your beautiful family. May God bless you.
could I left the ribs marinate overnight in the fridge?
So, I just made these ribs and they are so AWESOMMEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!! Ridiculously so. And I have not even done the final broiling step. I will do it tomorrow right before serving. I made them ahead just in case I messed them up.
Hubby taste tested and gave his nod of approval and he rarely wants anything new. I’m sure this will be a go to recipe for years to come. Thanks again!
P.S. My daughter is also a fan.
These are the best ribs i ever had and i made them . This was my first time cooking ribs and it turn out great. Thanks for the help divascancook.com
I made these ribs yesterday while I was off work for the holiday. I really don’t eat ribs but I wanted to cook something different. They were GOOD! I will be using this recipe unless I somehow stumble across a differnet one. The recipe was easy but can be a little time consuming. So worth it though! I love your recipes!
I’m trying them now, they’re in the fridge, looking good so far, I’ll post again after we devour them
One word- Delicious!! I made these last night. Your instructions were easy to follow. i rarely eat ribs, but I will surely make these over and over again! Thank you! I don’t know where I would be without you! 🙂
So, I just put these in the oven, but I do have a question, do you separate the ribs before or after you cook them?
In the video they were already separated. I plan to make these tomorrow and will be separating mine first.
love your web site! I am sooooo hooked.
Can’t wait to try since this has way less sugar than other rib recipe – which is really good but a little sweet.
Another success!
