Barbecued Beef Short Ribs

By Derrick Riches, About.com

A simple barbecued beef rib recipe starts out in a Dutch Oven and ends up on your grill. While you won't get a lot of authentic smoke flavor you will certainly get some great, tender ribs.

Prep Time: 10 minutes

Cook Time: 1 hour, 30 minutes

Ingredients:

  • beef short ribs, about 4 pounds
  • 1 8 ounce can tomato paste
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 2 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon dried onion
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes, crushed

Preparation:

Cut ribs into individual ribs. Place into a large Dutch oven and add enough water to cover ribs. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and allow to simmer for an hour.

To prepare sauce: combine all remaining ingredients in a saucepan. Let simmer for 10-15 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

Preheat grill for medium heat. Take ribs out of Dutch oven and place on grill rack. Grill covered for 15 minutes, basting with sauce occasionally. Remove from heat and serve immediately.
