Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ribs

    Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C). In a small bowl, mix together salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Rub the olive oil over the beef ribs and then coat them evenly with the spice mixture.

  2. 2

    Sauce the Ribs

    Place the seasoned ribs in a baking dish and generously brush them with BBQ sauce, ensuring they are fully coated.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Bake the Ribs

    Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 2.5 to 3 hours, or until the meat is tender and pulls away from the bone easily.

  2. 4

    Grill the Ribs (Optional)

    For a charred finish, remove the foil and place the ribs on a grill over medium-high heat for an additional 10-15 minutes, basting with extra BBQ sauce.

Preparing the Side Dish

  1. 5

    Cook the Corn

    While the ribs are baking, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the corn on the cob and boil for about 7-10 minutes until tender. Remove from water and slather with butter, then sprinkle with salt and chives.

Serving

  1. 6

    Plate the Meal

    Once the ribs are cooked, let them rest for about 10 minutes before slicing. Serve the ribs on a platter alongside the corn on the cob. Garnish with fresh parsley and lemon wedges if desired.
