Are you looking for an easy and delicious method to cook your short ribs?
These beef ribs recipes are exactly what you need.
They’re tender, full of flavor, and so simple to make.
Plus, they come with a bunch of tricks you need to know.
From smoking to dry-brining, there’s a technique for every occasion on this list.
Whether you’re in the mood for classic braised ribs or something a little more adventurous, I have you covered.
Let’s get cooking!
1. Oven Baked Beef Ribs
These oven-baked beef ribs are a classic that everyone should try.
They have a rich, salty, and savory flavor thanks to the rub of Worcestershire.
Each rib is juicy, tender, and ready for any sauce you can think of!
Serve this with potatoes and beans for a complete meal.
2. Sticky Asian Ribs
Ribs are already delicious on their own, but when you add a savory sauce and a few other topping options, they’re even better.
I like to make this recipe with barbecue sauce because it gives the ribs such a bold flavor.
But if you prefer something sweeter, I would try using brown sugar or honey instead.
3. Slow Cooker Beef Ribs
If you’ve never tried slow-cooking beef ribs, I highly recommend you give it a shot.
The flavors are incredible, and the meat is so tender. It’s also easy to make and can be ready in just 45 minutes.
Use your favorite sauce recipe to keep things simple, or use this recipe if you love garlic and onions.
Sprinkle with butter before serving and watch them melt in your mouth!
4. Red Wine Braised Short Ribs
If you’re looking for a new way to serve short ribs, try red wine braised.
The combination of rich and earthy flavors is fantastic.
This dish features bone-in rib bones that are infused in the most amazing wine. The wine complements the rich flavor of the beef perfectly.
The result is a melt-in-your-mouth short rib with great aromatics and a gorgeous color.
It’s one that won’t disappoint!
5. Gordon Ramsay’s Slow Braised Beef Short Ribs
The best way to cook a short rib is slow.
The sear on the outside caramelizes and develops a lovely crust, while the inside stays perfectly tender.
This recipe uses a Dutch oven, so it takes a little longer than other methods.
But that gives you all those delicious charred layers to enjoy.
I think this would be even more impressive if served with some mashed potatoes and roasted vegetables.
6. Luau Ribs
There’s no need for a feast if you can whip up this easy rib recipe.
All you’ll need is to season the ribs and then cook them in a slow cooker.
This gives you a flavorful and tender dish that doesn’t require much time or effort.
It also helps to use ribs of different ages, so the kids won’t be disappointed when they try them at home!
7. Slow Cooker Chinese Spare Ribs
Back in the days when I was a kid, pork spareribs were all the rage.
Between the thick and juicy meat and the tender, sweet glaze that comes from pulling them apart, I can just imagine how much fun it was to have 30 pounds of meat waiting for dinner.
This recipe takes all of those memories together in one go with a salty-sweet sauce made with Chinese five-spice powder and soy sauce.
It’s almost like a savory version of barbecue sauce!
After cooking this long and slow on low heat overnight, the ribs will fall-off the bone good and be so tender you won’t need to add anything else.
8. Spicy Galbi Jjim
Galbi jjim is a spicy Cajun-style stew made with galbi brisket, carrots, celery, and greens.
It’s already pretty darn good on its own.
But if you want to increase the spice level even more, chop some peppers and onions into chunks.
Then just toss them in with everything else.
After all, it’s still delicious whether or not you add those extras!
9. Traeger Smoked Beef Ribs
Smoked, seasoned beef ribs are the ultimate summertime side dish.
They’re so easy to make, and they taste so good.
Plus, you can always add extra flavor with a handful of herbs and spices.
Tender, juicy, and perfectly tender with a smoky crust on the outside – what more could you want?
10. Korean Gochujang Ribs
These rib tips are a great way to get that extra flavor on your ribs.
The secret lies in the gochujang, a Korean hot sauce.
It will make your meat tender and spicy.
It’s the perfect sauce for these Korean barbecue ribs.
11. French Style Braised Short Ribs
Short ribs are a simple cut of beef that usually takes some time to cook.
But braised short ribs are a fantastic way to make it even easier.
They’re seasoned with just salt, pepper, and garlic powder, allowing the meat to become juicy and tender.
Serve them over mashed potatoes or rice for an elegant winter meal.
