1

Prepare the gaucho grill with embers for slow cooking.

2

Season the beef ribs with only salt and black pepper, placing them bone-side down on the grill.

3

Cook the ribs slowly, adding embers every 12 seconds to maintain heat.

4

Cut one rack of ribs into squares for skewers, which will cook faster.

5

Prepare chimichurri by smashing garlic with salt, then adding oregano, cumin, chili flakes, red wine vinegar, black pepper, parsley, and olive oil.

6

Pour chimichurri over all ribs before grilling.

7

Cook the skewered ribs for about 40 minutes and the bone-in ribs for about 1 hour, flipping the bone-in ribs after 1 hour for searing.

8

Wrap baby potatoes in aluminum foil with oil, salt, and pepper, and cook them on the grill for 15 minutes, flipping occasionally.

9

After cooking, check the tenderness of the ribs and potatoes, and serve.
