Perfect Beef Ribs Recipe on the Arteflame Grill

Introduction:

Unlock the secrets to perfect beef ribs with this detailed recipe, optimized for the Arteflame grill. Known for its ability to sear meat at over 1,000°F, the Arteflame grill delivers a steakhouse-quality sear while allowing you to cook other foods on its flat top griddle. Follow this recipe to enjoy the most flavorful, tender, and beautifully seared beef ribs.

Ingredients:

• 2 racks of beef ribs
• 1/4 cup olive oil
• 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
• 1/4 cup brown sugar
• 2 tablespoons smoked paprika
• 1 tablespoon garlic powder
• 1 tablespoon onion powder
• 1 tablespoon chili powder
• 2 teaspoons ground black pepper
• 2 teaspoons kosher salt
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Ribs: Rinse the beef ribs and pat them dry with paper towels. Remove the membrane from the back of the ribs for better tenderness.
2. Season the Ribs: In a small bowl, combine brown sugar, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, chili powder, black pepper, kosher salt, and ground cumin. Rub the mixture evenly over both sides of the ribs. Let them sit at room temperature for 30 minutes.
3. Preheat the Grill: Preheat your Arteflame grill to high heat (over 1,000°F) to get it ready for grilling.
4. Grill the Ribs: Place the ribs on the grill grate over the high heat. Sear each side for 3-4 minutes to develop a crust.
5. Slow Cook on the Flat Top: After searing, move the ribs to the flat top griddle surrounding the grill grate. Cook for another 1.5 to 2 hours, turning occasionally, until the ribs are tender and the internal temperature reaches 190°F.  It’s hard to over cook ribs so go for tenderness-fall-of-the-boneness.
6. Baste with Sauce: In a small bowl, mix olive oil and apple cider vinegar. Baste the ribs every 30 minutes to keep them moist and flavorful.
7. Rest and Serve: Remove the ribs from the grill and let them rest for 10 minutes before slicing. Serve with your favorite BBQ sauce on the side.

Tips:

• For added flavor, marinate the ribs in the seasoning mixture overnight.
• Use a meat thermometer to ensure the ribs are cooked to perfection.
• Serve with classic sides like coleslaw, baked beans, or cornbread for a complete meal.
