Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Prime rib bones or beef short ribs
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 teaspoons Kosher salt
- 2 teaspoons Freshly ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 4 sprigs Fresh thyme
- 4 sprigs Fresh rosemary
- 1 cup Beef broth
- 0.5 cup Red wine (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C).
Pat the prime rib bones or beef short ribs dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
Brush the ribs with olive oil, ensuring they are evenly coated.
In a small bowl, mix together kosher salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.
Rub the seasoning mixture over each piece of meat, ensuring all sides are well coated.
Place the ribs in a roasting pan or a Dutch oven, bone side down.
Add the fresh thyme and rosemary sprigs around the meat for extra aroma and flavor.
Pour the beef broth and optional red wine into the bottom of the pan to keep the meat moist during cooking.
Cover the pan tightly with aluminum foil or a lid to trap in the steam.
Roast the ribs in the oven for 2.5 hours, checking occasionally to ensure there's still liquid in the bottom of the pan. Add more broth if necessary.
After 2.5 hours, remove the foil or lid to expose the meat. Increase the oven temperature to 425°F (220°C).
Roast uncovered for an additional 20-30 minutes, or until the ribs develop a golden-brown crust.
Remove from the oven and let the meat rest for 10 minutes before serving.
Serve the roasted ribs with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a fresh salad. Enjoy!
