Argentine Asado – Traditional BBQ Beef Ribs

Asado is more than a dish in Argentina — it’s a ritual. Beef ribs are seasoned simply and grilled slowly over wood or charcoal, developing deep flavor and irresistible char.

Ingredients (Serves 4):

* 1.5–2kg beef short ribs (flanken cut or asado-style)
* Coarse salt
* Chimichurri (for serving)

Instructions:

1. Season beef ribs generously with coarse salt.
2. Grill over low to medium charcoal heat for 1.5–2 hours, turning occasionally.
3. Serve hot with chimichurri sauce and grilled vegetables.

Argentinian Tip:
Use wood coals (quebracho or mesquite) for best flavor, and never rush the grilling.
