Barbecued Short Ribs

Barbecued Short Ribs

Diana Rattray
This is an easy meal in one pot, and it's easy to put together. Feel free to use a chuck roast instead of the ribs.

Ingredients:

  • 4 to 6 medium potatoes, peeled and cut in 2-inch chunks
  • 1 cup baby carrots
  • 1 large onion, cut into 8 to 12 wedges
  • 3 1/2 pounds beef short ribs or beef chuck pot roast cut in chunks
  • 1 cup ketchup
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1/4 cup red wine vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon paprika, regular or smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
  • dash garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon worcestershire sauce
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
  • ---
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1/4 cup water

Preparation:

Put the potatoes and carrots in a large slow cooker; top with the onion wedges then the beef. Combine the ketchup, 1/4 cup water, vinegar, paprika, chili powder, mustard, garlic powder, Worcestershire sauce, and salt. Pour over the beef. Cover and cook on LOW for 8 to 10 hours, or HIGH for 4 to 5 hours.

Transfer the juices to a saucepan and simmer for 5 minutes. Combine the cornstarch with 1/4 cup water, stirring until the mixture is smooth. Pour into the simmering juices and cook, stirring, until thickened, about 1 minutes. Serve the beef and vegetables with the thickened sauce.
Serves 4 to 6.

So easy and so good.September 17, 2009By MotoMeMotoU
"I am new in crock pot cooking. And this recipe makes my mouth water when it's cooking. It has a long list of ingredients and I don't have some of them. I didn't have worchestershire sauce and dry mustard, so I substituted them with 1 tb sp of bbq sauce (smoky flavor), 1/2 t sp of yellow mustard and 1 tsp of honey mustard. Because I prefer my food to be spicier, I added 1 tsp of hot sauce into the ingredients. Yummy! Can't wait for dinner!"
