Indulge in the smoky, savory flavors of our *Heart-Healthy Grilled Beef Rib*—a guilt-free way to enjoy this barbecue classic! Crafted with lean, trimmed beef ribs and marinated in a robust blend of olive oil, low-sodium soy sauce, garlic, fresh herbs, and a hint of black pepper, this recipe keeps flavor bold while prioritizing heart health. A tangy-sweet glaze of lemon juice and honey caramelizes beautifully on the grill, delivering a mouthwatering finish. With a cooking process over indirect heat that ensures perfectly tender ribs, this dish is both satisfying and nourishing. Ready in under two hours and ideal for serving alongside mixed greens or steamed veggies, these ribs are the perfect centerpiece for a wholesome, crowd-pleasing meal.
In a small bowl, combine olive oil, low-sodium soy sauce, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, chopped thyme, and black pepper. Stir until well mixed.
Place the beef ribs on a large platter or baking dish. Rub the marinade mixture evenly over the ribs, ensuring all sides are coated. Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight for best results.
Remove the ribs from the refrigerator about 30 minutes before grilling to allow them to come to room temperature.
Preheat the grill to medium heat (about 300°F).
Grill the ribs over indirect heat, turning occasionally, for approximately 1.5 hours or until the meat is tender and thoroughly cooked. Use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature reaches 145°F.
While the ribs are grilling, whisk together lemon juice and honey in a small bowl. Set aside.
In the last 10 minutes of grilling, brush the lemon and honey mixture over the ribs to create a flavorful glaze.
Once cooked, remove the ribs from the grill and let them rest for about 10 minutes before slicing.
Serve the ribs warm. Enjoy with a side of mixed greens or steamed vegetables for a complete heart-healthy meal.
