Ingredients:
– 3 pounds beef short ribs
– 2 cups rhubarb, chopped
– 1 cup ketchup
– 1/2 cup brown sugar
– 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
– 2 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
– 1 teaspoon mustard powder
– Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions:
1. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, around 375-400°F (190-200°C).
2. In a saucepan, combine the chopped rhubarb, ketchup, brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, minced garlic, Worcestershire sauce, mustard powder, salt, and pepper. Simmer over medium heat for about 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the rhubarb breaks down and the sauce thickens slightly. Set aside.
3. Season the short ribs generously with salt and pepper on both sides.
4. Place the short ribs on the preheated grill and cook for about 10-15 minutes per side, or until nicely browned.
5. Generously brush the rhubarb barbecue sauce onto both sides of the ribs, ensuring they are well coated. Continue to grill for an additional 5-10 minutes per side, basting with more sauce as needed, until the ribs are cooked through and the sauce caramelizes slightly.
6. Once the ribs are cooked to your desired level of doneness and the sauce has formed a beautiful glaze, remove them from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.
7. Serve the Rhubarb Barbecued Short Ribs hot off the grill, garnished with fresh chopped parsley or additional sauce on the side. Pair them with your favorite summer sides like coleslaw, grilled corn, or potato salad for a complete and satisfying meal.
