Hey, CB! Were so glad its tailgating season in Alabama! We love to meet all our friends at the game for a cookout, but when we cant, we celebrate at home and crowd around the Big Screen.
For those occasions nothing fits the bill better than our Braised Short Ribs. Like our Braised Beef Chili, this dish starts out hot and fast with a sear, then goes undercover for a long, slow braise. We add our Roasted Corn Souffl and a big green salad to make a memorable meal. GOG
Girls on a Grill Grilled & Braised Rack of Beef Short Ribs
Start with good meat and add a rub you enjoy. We use a rub or our own making composed of flour, sugar, salt, pepper, thyme and oregano.
Weve had a hard time finding beef short ribs at our local grocery, so we call ahead to the butcher to make sure they can cut some for us. If your butcher cant provide a rack, the single-cut short ribs will do (sometimes theyre already packaged this way when they reach your grocery store.) While calling ahead makes it hard to be spontaneous, the results are worth the time and effort. We think youll agree!
Brown the ribs over direct hot heat first - producing the tasty brown crust formed when the natural juices of the meat combine with the rub & meet the heat!The browned ribs braise with stock and fresh vegetables to create a DEE-LISH-US meal!
This recipe calls for a hot grill to start, and a cool grill to finish, so set the grill up for a modified two-level fire, but plan on letting it burn down and cool off after about 45 mins to an hour.
They will braise for several hours youll know theyre done when you can wiggle an end bone, and it will slide out. If you like a toothier rib, remove them when you lift one end of the rack and the meat pulls away from the bones at the point where it bends.
Low and slow is the ticket to this fantastic dish and, reminiscent of an osso buco, the beef ribs add a flavor thats all their own. Add whatever vegetables are in season and you will have a whole meal ready at the same time. What could be easier?
