Ingredients
  

  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar light or dark
  • 2 teaspoons smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin
  • 4 pounds beef country-style ribs boneless
  • 3 tablespoons water
  • 1 cup BBQ sauce your choice

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 300°F.
  • Stir the brown sugar, smoked paprika, chili powder, garlic powder, salt, onion powder, black pepper, red pepper flakes and cumin together in a small bowl.
  • Place the ribs in a 9x13-inch baking dish and sprinkle the seasoning over both sides. Pour the water into the dish and cover tightly with foil.
  • Bake for 2 1/2 hours.
  • Remove the foil, brush the ribs with BBQ sauce and return them to the oven uncovered. Bake until the meat pulls apart easily with a fork. Check the internal temperature with a food thermometer; beef must reach at least 145°F and rest for at least 3 minutes before serving. Reheat any leftovers to 165°F, checking with a food thermometer.
  • Let the ribs rest for 10 minutes before serving.

Notes

Boneless beef short ribs or chuck roast cut into chunks can replace country-style beef ribs, but cooking time may change. Refrigerate leftovers within 2 hours in shallow, covered containers. Refrigerate for 3 to 4 days or freeze for 3 to 4 months; thaw in the refrigerator, cold water or microwave, not on the counter. Do not reheat leftovers in a slow cooker.
