Barbecue Short Ribs
Ingredients:
– 3 lbs beef short ribs
– 1 cup barbecue sauce
– 1/4 cup soy sauce
– 2 tbsp brown sugar
– 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
– 2 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 tsp black pepper
– 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
– Salt to taste
– Chopped fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions:
1. Preheat your grill or oven to 300°F (150°C).
2. In a bowl, mix together the barbecue sauce, soy sauce, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, minced garlic, black pepper, smoked paprika, and a pinch of salt.
3. Place the beef short ribs in a large baking dish or a heavy-duty foil tray.
4. Pour the barbecue sauce mixture over the ribs, making sure they are evenly coated on all sides.
5. Cover the dish with foil or use another tray to create a tight seal.
6. If using a grill, place the ribs on the grill over indirect heat. Close the lid and let them cook for about 3 hours, turning them occasionally and basting with the sauce.
7. If using an oven, place the covered dish in the preheated oven and bake for 3 hours, basting the ribs with the sauce every hour.
8. After 3 hours, remove the foil cover and increase the heat to 400°F (200°C). Cook for an additional 30 minutes, or until the ribs are caramelized and tender.
9. Once done, remove the ribs from the grill or oven and let them rest for a few minutes.
10. Sprinkle chopped fresh parsley over the ribs for a pop of color and freshness.
11. Serve the barbecue short ribs hot, alongside your favorite sides like coleslaw, cornbread, or roasted vegetables.
