Where to find ingredients
You can find high-quality beef ribs at local butchers or the meat counters of supermarkets. Lemon and fresh garlic are readily available in the produce section.
Preparation method
- Season the rib racks thoroughly with the crushed garlic, lemon juice, and salt.
- Place the seasoned meat into a roasting tray.
- Cover the tray tightly with aluminum foil.
- Place in a preheated oven at medium heat (approximately 180°C) and roast for 3 hours.
- Remove the aluminum foil.
- Continue roasting, turning the meat occasionally and basting with the beef stock (if using) or the pan drippings, until well browned.
- If the pan juices dry out, add a splash of boiling water to prevent sticking and to create more jus.
