Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pounds Grass-fed beef short ribs
- 2 tablespoons Sea salt
- 1 tablespoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 3 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Fresh oregano, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon Red wine vinegar
- 1 whole Lemon, juiced
- 0.5 teaspoon Red pepper flakes
Instructions
Preheat your charcoal grill or gas grill to high heat (about 450°F/230°C).
In a small bowl, combine salt, black pepper, paprika, and minced garlic. Rub the mixture evenly over the beef short ribs.
Place the ribs on the grill and sear each side for about 3-4 minutes until a good crust forms.
Reduce the heat to medium or move the ribs to a cooler part of the grill. Cook the ribs for about 1.5 to 2 hours, turning every 20 minutes, until they are tender and juicy. The internal temperature should reach about 150°F/65°C for medium.
While the ribs are cooking, prepare the chimichurri sauce: in a small bowl, mix olive oil, fresh oregano, parsley, red wine vinegar, lemon juice, and red pepper flakes.
Once the ribs are cooked, remove them from the grill and let them rest for about 10 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute within the meat.
Slice the ribs and serve with the freshly prepared chimichurri sauce drizzled on top.
Enjoy your Paleo Argentinian Asado with a side of grilled vegetables or a simple salad to keep it Paleo-friendly.
