Sous Vide Beef Ribs Recipes

24 HOUR SOUS VIDE RIBS

Steps:

• First, fill a large pot with water (something large enough to submerge your ribs). Preheat your sous vide water bath to 152ºF by attaching your sous vide to the side of the pot.
• Next, prepare pork dry rub by combining all of the spices together in a medium bowl and set aside.
• Then, remove rack of ribs from the package and place it onto a large baking sheet. Use a sharp knife to cut the rack in half. Then, flip the ribs over and remove the white membrane by peeling it back. Discard membrane.
• Generously season ribs with your dry rub. Use about 1/2 cup of dry rub at this point and save the rest for later. Use your hands to massage the rub into the front and back of the ribs.
• Transfer each half rack of ribs into 2 separate food saver bags and remove as much air as possible and seal. Submerge bags into the sous vide water bath and use 2 clips to attach them to the side of the pot. Cover pot with a piece of tin foil, leaving a hole for the sous vide to stick out. The reason we do this is to prevent evaporation overnight.
• Set timer for 24-hours. Make sure to check water level every so often to make sure that the water does not evaporate. If it does, just add more.
• Once the 24-hours is up, remove bags from water bath and then cut them open with a pair of scissors. Discard the juices and remove the ribs. Place ribs on top of paper towel and use an additional paper towel to blot any moisture out of them.
• Use around 1/4 cup more of dry rub to season the front and back of the ribs. Then, use a brush to apply a layer of your favorite BBQ sauce. You can use as much or as little BBQ sauce as you'd like.
• Preheat grill to 450ºF. Then, rub grill grates with olive oil or spray with nonstick cooking spray. Grill both sides of the ribs for 5-6 minutes or until you get a charred edge.
• Let ribs rest for 5-10 minutes before serving.

SOUS VIDE BEEF RIBS

Steps:

• Heat a sous vide water bath to 135F degrees.
• Use a knife to remove any membrane (or silver skin) from the back of the ribs.
• Rub the seasoning generously over the ribs on both sides.
• Place in a vacuum seal bag or a heavy duty ziplock bag.
• Use a vacuum sealer or the water displacement method (see above) to remove the air from the bag.
• Cook for 24-36 hours (the longer you cook, the more tender they will be).
• Remove from the water bath and take the ribs out of the bag.
• Pat the ribs dry with some paper towels.
• Grill on high heat or broil in the oven to crisp the outside of the ribs. (I recommend grilling for the best flavor).
• Slice between the bones and serve.

SMOTHERED BEEF SHORT RIBS

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large pot over medium high heat. Season the ribs with salt and pepper to taste and dredge them in flour. Fry the ribs in the oil in small batches, adding oil as needed, to sear the meat. This should take 2 to 3 minutes per batch. Set ribs aside.
• In the same pot, add the onions and saute for 2 minutes. Add the celery and carrots and saute for 1 more minute. Season with salt and pepper to taste, and then stir in the garlic, bay leaves and thyme and cook for 1 more minute.
• Deglaze the pot with the red wine, scraping up all the bits on the bottom. Add the stock, bring to a boil, reduce heat to low and simmer. Add the ribs and continue to simmer for 2 hours, until the sauce thickens. Stir in the parsley and serve.
