We all know any recipe with beef is always welcome during the festive season and here is an easy BBQ beef short rib recipe you should try.
The best part about it is that it doesn’t require a charcoal grill. Below is the recipe as prepared by Chef Cindy Gahai:
Ingredients
1kg beef short ribs
For the ribs dry rub
2 tsp salt
1tsp black pepper
1tsp paprika
1tsp garlic powder
1½ tbsp Dijon mustard
For the BBQ sauce
1 cup ketchup
¾ cup dark brown sugar
1½ tsp apple cider vinegar
1½ tbsp Worcestershire sauce
¼ tsp black pepper
¾ tsp Spanish paprika
¼ tsp cayenne pepper
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 180°C.
Season the ribs by rubbing with Dijon mustard, paprika, salt and pepper, then arrange ribs in a baking dish.
In a small bowl, combine all of the BBQ sauce ingredients and stir until smooth.
Pour about ½ cup of the sauce over the ribs. Using tongs, flip the ribs over and spoon another 1/3 of the sauce over top.
Reserve the remaining BBQ sauce to brush over the cooked ribs.
Cover the baking dish with aluminium foil and roast for 2½ hours.
Remove the foil and, if the cooking liquid is covering the meat, cook for 30 minutes more, uncovered, until the meat is tender and browned and the liquid reduced.
Transfer the short ribs to a serving platter and serve.
