Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ribs

    Start by rinsing the beef ribs under cold water and patting them dry with paper towels.

  2. 2

    Season the Ribs

    Rub the beef ribs generously with rock salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Drizzle with olive oil and ensure the seasoning is evenly distributed.

  3. 3

    Preheat your grill to a low heat, around 250°F (120°C).

  4. 4

    Grill the Ribs

    Place the seasoned ribs on the grill bone side down. Close the lid and cook for approximately 4-5 hours, turning occasionally, until the meat is tender and has formed a nice crust.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Once cooked, remove the ribs from the grill and let them rest for about 10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm.
