Costela BBQ is characterized by its rich, smoky, and savory flavors, enhanced by the natural taste of beef and the addition of a well-balanced barbecue sauce.
The primary flavor is the deep, savory taste of beef ribs, often showcasing the meat's natural richness. A smoky aroma permeates the ribs from the grilling process, traditionally over charcoal. The barbecue sauce contributes a sweet, tangy, and sometimes spicy element, using ingredients like tomatoes, vinegar, brown sugar, garlic, and chili peppers to balance the beef's intensity.

Choosing the Right Ribs
Select well-marbled beef ribs for optimal flavor and tenderness. Look for ribs with a good amount of meat covering the bones.
Low and Slow Cooking
Cook the ribs at a low temperature (around 225-250°F or 107-121°C) for a long period (4-6 hours) to allow the connective tissue to break down and the meat to become incredibly tender.
Basting with BBQ Sauce
Apply the barbecue sauce during the last hour of cooking, basting frequently to create a flavorful glaze. Avoid adding sauce too early, as the sugars can burn.
Resting the Meat
Allow the cooked ribs to rest for at least 15-20 minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful result.
