Preparation
Begin by trimming excess fat from the beef ribs, leaving a thin layer for flavor and moisture.
Create your dry rub by combining salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper in a small bowl. Rub this mixture generously over all surfaces of the ribs.
Heat your grill to medium-low. Place the ribs away from direct heat.
Place the seasoned BBQ beef ribs on the cooler side of the grill and cook for 3 to 3½ hours, maintaining consistent temperature.
Meanwhile, prepare the sauce by combining chopped onion, honey, American Garden U.S. Ketchup, diced green chilies, minced garlic, and American Garden U.S. Mustard Original in a saucepan.
Heat the sauce mixture over medium temperature, stirring continuously until all ingredients are well combined and warmed through. Set aside.
During the final 30 minutes of cooking, begin brushing the BBQ beef ribs with the sauce, applying multiple coats to build up a thick, glossy glaze.
Once the ribs are cooked through and tender, remove from heat and let rest for 5 minutes to allow juices to redistribute.
Cut between the bones to separate into individual ribs and serve with extra sauce on the side.
Pitmaster's Secret for Perfect BBQ Beef Ribs
Great BBQ beef ribs need time and the right method. Keep the heat steady so the ribs cook evenly. To check if they’re done, try the “bend test”—the ribs should crack slightly when you bend them. Add sauce near the end of cooking to stop it from burning.
Storage Ideas for Perfect BBQ Beef Ribs
To make the most of your BBQ beef ribs, proper storage is key. Wrap any leftover ribs in foil and refrigerate them for up to 3 days. For longer storage, you can freeze cooked ribs in vacuum-sealed bags for up to 3 months. When you’re ready to enjoy the ribs again, reheat them in a low oven at 135°C, wrapped in foil to keep them moist. Don’t forget to save the bones they’re perfect for making a rich, flavorful beef stock.
