  • Prep time: 3 hours 35 minutes
    Cooking time: 3 hours 20 minutes

  • Ingredients

    • 10 beef short ribs (about 5 inches by 2½ inches)
    • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
    • 3¼ cups Nancy's Quick Fix BBQ Sauce, recipe follows
    • 2 cups beef broth
    • 12 cloves garlic, smashed
    • 1 onion, sliced into ½-inch rounds
    • 1 bottle stout beer
    • Nancy's Quick Fix BBQ Sauce:
    • 3 cups chunky medium salsa, such as Pace
    • ¼ cup packed dark brown sugar
    • 2 tablespoons ground cumin
    • 2 tablespoons sweet paprika

    Method

    1. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
    2. Season the beef ribs with salt and pepper and place on a large baking sheet. Roast until the ribs start to brown, about 30 minutes.
    3. Meanwhile, mix together Nancy's Quick Fix BBQ Sauce, the broth, garlic, onions and beer in a large Dutch oven and bring to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer for about 30 minutes.
    4. Transfer the browned ribs to the Dutch oven meat-side down. Lower the oven temperature to 325 degrees F, cover the pot and transfer it to the oven. Braise the ribs until tender and cooked through, 2 to 2 1/2 hours.
    5. Prepare a grill for medium heat.
    6. Put the ribs on the grill (reserve the sauce in the pot) and grill, turning occasionally, until caramelized, 8 to 10 minutes. Top with the reserved sauce and serve.
      Nancy's Quick Fix BBQ Sauce:
    1. Put the salsa, sugar, cumin and paprika in a medium saucepan over medium heat and bring to a simmer. Cook until the sugar is dissolved, 8 to 10 minutes.
