This was just okay, the sauce was good I just find that beef ribs are so fatty.

I've never made beef ribs before, but we've stopped eating pork, so I really wanted to give it a try. The recipe was easy, but I have to say that I didn't care for the ribs. Having not had beef ribs before, I'm not sure if it was the recipe or that I just don't love the taste of beef ribs.

Tried these today with pork spareribs.. They were excellent. I also will make more sauce next time put it over mashed potatoes. Had this with breaded yellow beans and baked potatoes. What a meal !!

This is a great way to make ribs. I used a bottle BBQ sauce but the cooking method is outstanding. The beef was tender and delicious.

These ribs are awesome! I fixed this for my daughter and her family last night and we all agreed that these ribs were the best any of us had ever eaten anywhere. I have tried many barbecue sauces over the years and this had the most perfect blend of flavors. Not too sweet and not too tangy. I used bone-in short ribs because they have more meat on them than the beef back ribs do. We all agreed that the simmering for a couple hours made for very tender meat and also contributed to the ribs not being greasy. I added a little bit of liquid smoke and some dark rum, but so little of each, it probably didn't make that much difference. I usually don't alter any recipe the first time trying, so I can judge it as is, that's why I added only a smidget of the smoke and rum. I used about 5 Lbs. of ribs and tripled the amount of sauce. Yum! Yum! The search for the best barbecue ribs has ended here! Thanks so much Margery for a great recipe!

This recipe makes the beef ribs so tender and juicy! The meat fell off the bones. I will not worry about buying beef ribs again with this recipe!

Excellent recipe for beef ribs. They came out super tender, although I did boil them for about 2 1/2 to 3 hours. I put what ever sauce on it I want and they turn out great. The cooking method is the best!

The sauce rocks! I took the tip from another reviewer and added a couple tbsp of alcohol (I didn't have rum so I used Irish whiskey which did fine). I used a hand blender to get a smoother sauce. Like others, I made extra sauce.

I simmered the ribs for about 2 hours to make them really soft. The sauce is has a great texture and flavor. Since it has been so hot outside and I didn't want to use the oven, I transferred the ribs to a pan on the stove. I poured the sauce ontop and cooked for about 30 minutes longer. They came out great!

We LOVE barbeque, and this is the best way to do beef ribs. I do add some seasoning to the water for simmering - 2 cloves minced garlic & about 2 tsp. onion powder. May not be necessary, but habit I guess. I also sometimes use my favorite bottled BBQ sauce when I'm in a hurry. The meat just falls off the bones. Delicious!!

Beef ribs always seem to be a bargain at the store, so I've been suspicious about them. No longer. I read the reviews and doctored up the sauce some. I simmered the ribs for about an hour and a half. I highly recommend doubling the sauce, which I did and it was just the right amount. I went to make this and discovered I was out of ketchup (gasp!), so I used 1/2 cup of spaghetti sauce and a 1/2 cup of BBQ sauce. I also added some sweet Thai chili sauce, used 2 teaspons of worcestershire, and threw in some crushed red pepper. It was kickier and had more heat than traditional BBQ sauce. I cooked these for about 55 minutes, and I probably could have taken them out at 45-50 minutes and they would have been fine. Served with "sweet restaurant slaw" from this site (killer!) and doctored up Bush's baked beans (cooked for same time and at same temp as ribs, so was a breeze). Home cookin' for sure.

Great recipe!! I did simmer ribs for 2 hours also. I did double the sauce. Try this though, add 2 Tbsp dark rum or spice rum, add 2 tbsp sweet chilli sauce(for lumpia, egg rolls, etc. It is located in the Oriental or Pacific Islander isle in store). Try them two items in sauce. Thanks for recipe.

I had never made ribs before I made these. I had been given a package of beef ribs and needed a recipe and I made a great choice. My husband told me it was the best meal I had ever made and since we have been married for over 10 years that was quite a statment. I used a slow cooker to boil the meat and I let it simmer for 2 1/2 to 3 hours but other than that I followed the recipe and they turned out great.

I like the method of how these ribs are made. I've been looking for a way to make them without burning them and this seems to be it. However, my family of 7 did not like the BBQ sauce in this recipe. Therefore, I will use this method in the future, but substitute a sauce I know my family likes.
