    Default Wonderful Short Ribs

    Wonderful Short Ribs

    Ingredients:
    1 (28 ounce) can tomato sauce
    3 tablespoons lemon juice
    4 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
    2 tablespoons dried parsley
    1 teaspoon dried thyme
    2 bay leaves
    2 tablespoons brown sugar
    1/2 teaspoons salt ( I used a little less)
    1/2 teaspoon black pepper
    1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
    1 medium onion, cut into rings
    3 pounds beef short ribs
    5 minced cloves of garlic
    2 tsp tomato paste

    Directions:
    1.In a large pan over medium-high heat, stir in tomato sauce, lemon juice, and Worcestershire sauce. Stir in parsley, thyme, bay leaves, brown sugar, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes. Add onions and short ribs, and stir together until the mixture comes to a boil.
    2.Cover, reduce heat to medium low, and simmer; stirring occasionally and skimming fat from surface, until meat is tender, about 2 1/2 hours. Remove bay leaves before serving.

    I caught shortribs on sale at the little grocery store here in town. I used about 2 1/2 pounds boneless shortribs for this recipe.
    Here is how I did it. I Seasoned the ribs both sides with a pinch of salt and some fresh pepper. Browned them in hot olive oil just until they got caramel colored and a bit crusty. Took out the ribs and put them on a plate. Then I softened my onions and garlic in the same pan til they got a little soft. Threw everything else in there and simmered on a low heat for about three hours. I used a dutch oven for this. Jon and I had ours served over butter noodles. I couldnt find the 28oz can of tomato sauce I swear I bought at Walmart last week so I used an equal amount of Bertolli's Marinara sauce from a jar.

    This recipe is fantastic! It tasted like a sit down meal from a fancy restaurant. This is the best recipe I have tried in months.

    We tried these for dinner with guests yesterday and they were absolutely out of this world...as you said, just like a high-end restaurant meal for which you'd pay a fortune! Thank you so much for sharing this recipe - we enjoyed it greatly and our friends wanted the recipe!

    I'm going to try these too. Could you use a slow cooker as well as a Dutch Oven? Except for the browning of course.

    I don't know about this specific recipe, the only way I do my ribs these days is in the slow cooker. I just stack them on their sides and let them go on low for 8-10 hours.

    Is this what they call..."Two great minds?" But you did it better than I did, Kevin...I didn't make the Mt. Dew cake! I'm saving that one for my husband's birthday June 8th...and I'm planning to become adventurous and try rolled fondant icing on it before decorating........................

    Im glad you guys liked the ribs. The recipe came from recipezzar and I made a few small changes. Im sure they would be great in the crockpot.
