Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 pounds beef ribs
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 can (28 ounces) crushed tomatoes
  • 23 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon adobo sauce (from the chipotle can)
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • Fresh cilantro (for garnish, optional)

Instructions

Follow these easy steps to create your own Beef Ribs with Tomato Sauce and Chipotle:

  1. Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 300°F (150°C) for slow cooking.
  2. Prepare the Ribs: Pat the beef ribs dry with paper towels. Season both sides with salt and pepper.
  3. Sear the Ribs: In a large ovenproof pot, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the ribs in batches, searing for about 3-4 minutes on each side until browned. Remove and set aside.
  4. Sauté Onions and Garlic: In the same pot, add the chopped onion. Sauté for about 5 minutes, then add the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.
  5. Make the Sauce: Stir in the crushed tomatoes, chopped chipotle peppers, adobo sauce, brown sugar, cumin, smoked paprika, and salt. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
  6. Add the Ribs: Return the seared beef ribs to the pot, ensuring they are submerged in the sauce.
  7. Cook: Cover the pot and transfer it to your preheated oven. Cook for 3 to 4 hours, or until the ribs are fork-tender and the sauce is bubbling.
  8. Baste: Every hour, check on the ribs and baste them with the sauce for added moisture and flavor.
  9. Final Touches: Remove the pot from the oven and let it sit for 10 minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh cilantro if desired.
  10. Serve: Serve the beef ribs with extra sauce drizzled over top.
