BBQ'd Beef Ribs
- Ready In:
- 26hrs
- Ingredients:
- 12
- Serves:
-
3-6
ingredients
- 1 -3 lb beef rib (we prefer boneless)
- 4 cups canned tomatoes (fresh is fine if available in season)
- 1 fresh onion, chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh french tarragon leaf (1 1/2 teaspoons dry leaves)
- 2 bay leaves
- 3 cloves fresh garlic (or more, if desired)
- 1 tablespoon fresh greek oregano leaves (1 1/2 teaspoon dry oregano leaves)
- 1⁄4 cup sweet soy sauce
- 1⁄4 cup brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon curry powder (more, if desired, but certainly not less)
- 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper, ground (if you like it really hot, add more!)
- salt (to taste)
directions
- Run tomatoes through blender or food processor until smooth.
- Combine tomatoes and all ingredients except the beef ribs in 2 quart non-reactive pot such as stainless steel.
- NOTE: It is best to use an aluminum or copper clad pan for even heat distribution and to avoid hot spots, which will lead to sticking and possibly scorching.
- Bring tomato mixture to a boil, reduce heat and simmer until thickened, approximately 1 1/2 hours.
- Pour contents through sieve to strain out seeds and chunks (I stirred gently with a spoon to press more pulp through sieve a little more quickly).
- Allow to cool to room temperature.
- Place beef ribs in marinade and marinate for at least four hours, but over-night is better.
- If you are limited on time and have an injector, you can inject the beef ribs (if using boneless) rather than marinating.
- Place on pre-heated gas grill, or prepared charcoal grill and cook until desired doneness, basting frequently with marinade.

OH YES! OH YES! OH YES! THIS IS A KEEPER. I WANNA TELL YA', YOUR FAMILY IS RIGHT...MAKE THIS ONE YOUR BBQ SAUCE/MARINADE OF CHOICE. I have added this one to my faves, and filed it under "My Faves" (what else?) Two, 28 oz cans of GROUND PLUM TOMATOES measures 6 cups in volume. So I used two full tins of ground plum tomatoes, your seasonings, increased the ingredient quantities and onion by one-half because of the addition of two cups' tomato. (In this case, more is better - YUM). At the end of July, I am hosting an "in-law" Bar-B-Que and your recipe will be the BBQ Sauce/Marinade of choice for the 15 lb. beef tenderloin. At the end of August my niece is being married and I have been asked to cook the wedding BBQ. Your recipe will once again be the BBQ Sauce/Marinade of choice for the hip of beef. On September 20, there will be a birthday BBQ for 50 people at a friend's home; I have been asked to cook, and yes, your BBQ Sauce/Marinade will flavour 25 lbs chicken wings. On the Minus Side: It got used up too quickly. On the Plus Side: Seasonings are so easily adjusted to taste, and quantity. The melding of flavours is perfect. It is a recipe of simple preparation, and freezing for future use is exactly what I require. You get ten out of ten for sharing your talent, and happily 5-stars for the review.

I loved this sauce. I was in a hurry and had not time to cook and strain the sauce. I just ground all of the ingredients in a blender, poured on top of the ribs, and covered tightly with foil. About 7 hours later (300 degree oven) I had WONDERFUL ribs! I used teriaki sauce because I didn't have any soy sauce, and red pepper flakes in place of the cayenne. It is a real winner! Thanks!
RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
I am currently a stay at home Mom and wife (aka: homemaker, domestic engineer, chauffeur, etc.). My husband and I made this choice about 2 1/2 years ago. At the time I was averaging 72 hours/week +. Our kids were complaining that they never saw me, and one of them was even getting in trouble (too little supervision apparently). We got the troubled teen through high school, and she is currently preparing for college. Things have improved a lot so I am considering going back to work part-time while the kids are gone to school (if the right opportunity presents itself).

<br>I love to cook, especially trying new recipes. I get tired of the same ol', same ol'. I also love reading cookbooks and the history of recipes. I always hated doing all the dishes afterwards, so I did a lot of one dish meals whenever possible. Recently, my husband bought me a new dishwasher, so now I am cooking up a storm! Everyone is loving it.
<br>
<br>I look forward to making new friends in Recipezaar, trying out new recipes, and hope some of you will try some of mine. Please, if you try my recipes, take time to post a little note telling me about your experience and any modifications you may have made. I just love to experiment and try new things in the kitchen! :-))
