Question

What is the process for preparing Beef Short Ribs?

Answer 1

You don't need to boil them. They are good braised in a brown sauce. Prepare a seasoned flour mixture with salt, pepper and garlic and coat the ribs and brown in a frying pan...olive oil or canola oil is best for this. When browned place in a baking dish and cover with a brown gravy cover with foil and bake at 350 degrees for 1 1/2 hours and check for tenderness.

Answer 2

I boil them first ONLY if I am going to BBQ/GRILL them.. . I take my chops/ribs and remove all extra fat, put them in the crock pot with BBQ sauce and simmer all day on low.

Answer 3

DO NOT BOIL !! Coat them with flour salt and pepper and sear them in a hot frying pan. Place them in a roasting pan along with some chopped carrots, celery and onions, just barley cover with water. cover with foil and place in a 300 degree oven for around two hours. Check for tenderness. If tender enough carefully remove ribs and put in a pan to keep warm. Place cooking liquid in a pan and reduce by 1/2. Strain out veggies, thicken sauce with a roux. Pour sauce over ribs and enjoy! This is a time consuming recipe but its the labor of love that makes food taste so good.

Answer 5

Yes... you may boil them ... i have done this in 25% vinegar (this help them become super tender and puts the flavor in them that you'll love for ever !!).... but... you may also bake them in a glass dish with a cover over them to help keep in the juices. I love to use CREOLE seasoning from Kroger to help spice it up a little. Then you can add your sauce to them about 15 minutes before removing from the oven. Have fun.. I love to cook.
