GLAZED BEEF SHORT RIBS RECIPES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Season the short ribs with salt and pepper and brown well in the oil and butter combined in a large saute pan. Remove the ribs and place into a casserole or roasting pan.
• Add the onion, carrot and celery to the saute pan and begin to caramelize the vegetables.
• Continue to cook the vegetable mixture before adding the jalapeno, garlic, tomato, cumin, beer and stock in quick succession. Bring this mixture to a rapid boil before pouring over the ribs in the casserole. The liquid should not rise more than 2/3 up the side of the ribs and the ribs should not be entirely submerged.
• Place the casserole into the oven, add the bouquet and braise the ribs until fork tender, about 1 1/2 hours.
• Remove the casserole from the oven, allow to rest for several minutes before placing the ribs on a sheet pan. Degrease the braising liquid, strain the vegetables out and discard and reserve the remaining juices for serving.
• Combine the mustard and honey in a bowl and liberally brush over the ribs. Place the ribs back into the oven and roast another 10 minutes until the glaze is caramelized dark and delicious.
• Serve with the cooking/braising liquid in a sauce boat.

Steps:

• For the sauce: In a large pot on medium high heat add the oil and onions. Season with a pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper. Cook, while stirring, until tender, about 5 minutes. Add the paprika, garlic and whole sprigs of thyme. Stir until fragrant, about 5 minutes. Add the brown sugar, ketchup, vinegar, mustard and tomatoes and stir to combine. Add the cola and scrape the bottom of the pot with a wooden spoon to remove any bits that are stuck. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens to slightly thinner than the consistency of ketchup, about 45 minutes.
• For ribs: Heat half of a grill to 425 degrees F. Sprinkle the ribs all over with salt and pepper. With the grill lid open, place the ribs over the direct heat side of the grill and grill to get char marks on all sides, turning and flipping the ribs as needed. Lower the heat to 225 to 250 degrees F and move the ribs to the indirect side of the grill and baste with the some of the sauce. Cover and cook, quickly basting and recovering every 30 minutes, until the meat is tender, 2 to 4 hours depending on the size of the ribs, or until the internal temperature is 200 degrees F.
