Ingredients

• 3 pounds Country-style beef ribs
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Onion powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Dried thyme
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 cup Beef broth
• 1.5 cups Barbecue sauce
• 1 large Yellow onion
• 3 cloves Garlic cloves, minced

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C).

Step 2

Pat the beef ribs dry with a paper towel and trim any excess fat.

Step 3

In a small bowl, mix smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper to create a seasoning rub.

Step 4

Rub the olive oil over both sides of the ribs and generously coat them with the seasoning mixture. Set aside.

Step 5

Peel and slice the yellow onion into thick rings. Spread the onion slices evenly on the bottom of a large baking dish or roasting pan.

Step 6

Place the seasoned beef ribs over the onion slices.

Step 7

Sprinkle the minced garlic over the ribs, making sure they are evenly distributed.

Step 8

Pour the beef broth into the bottom of the pan (avoiding pouring over the ribs so the seasoning stays in place). Cover the dish tightly with aluminum foil to lock in moisture.

Step 9

Place the dish in the preheated oven and cook for 2.5 hours, checking occasionally to ensure the liquid hasn’t completely evaporated (add more beef broth if necessary).

Step 10

After 2.5 hours, remove the foil, and brush the ribs generously with barbecue sauce.

Step 11

Increase the oven temperature to 350°F (175°C) and return the uncovered dish to the oven.

Step 12

Cook for an additional 30 minutes, basting the ribs with barbecue sauce halfway through.

Step 13

Once the ribs are tender and the sauce has caramelized, remove the dish from the oven and let the ribs rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Step 14

Serve the hearty, country-style beef ribs with your favorite side dishes like mashed potatoes or coleslaw. Enjoy!
