Recipe

Preparation Time: 10 mins Cook Time: 6 hrs

Ready Time: 6 hrs 20 mins


• preheat oven to 275 degrees f (135 degrees c).
• place the rack of beef ribs in front of you on a work surface with the shiny white membrane facing up. slip the blade of a sharp knife under the membrane at one end, and slice the membrane off the meat in a single piece, if possible. discard the chewy membrane. rub the ribs thoroughly with sea salt, front and back. place the ribs a cooking rack in a roasting pan.
• bake in the preheated oven until very tender, about 6 hours. lightly baste the beef with water (use beef broth if you prefer) after the first 1 1/2 hours, being careful not to dislodge the salt. baste again every 45 minutes to 1 hour; after 6 hours of total cooking time, remove from oven and allow to rest 10 to 15 minutes before slicing up into servings.
