Tip : You can usually get leaner, meatier ribs directly from the butcher's counter in many grocery stores. These are generally better than ribs from the packaged meat counter.

Instructions
Gather all ingredients before starting recipe.
- Preheat oven to
350 °F - Peel and chop 1 1/2 medium Spanish onions and add 3 cloves garlic to the layer of chopped onions in the bottom of a heavy oven proof casserole with a tight fitting lid.
- Season beef ribs well with 1 1/2 tbsp kosher salt and then lightly coat each rib with 1 1/2 tbsp garlic powder. Layer ribs on top of the onions and garlic cloves. Add 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce, 1 cup ketchup, and 3/4 cup brown sugar.
- Add 1 1/2 cups beef stock last and only enough to barely cover the beef ribs, stir the mixture to even out the ingredients.
- Cover tightly and braise for 2 1/2 hours, checking periodically to make sure that juices remain. The ribs are done when the meat falls off the bones.
Serving
- Remove ribs and degrease, if needed.
Plating
- Slow cooked beef ribs are good with just a simple plate of boiled potatoes and some garlic dill pickles
