Broil Short Ribs

Short ribs are economical cuts of meat.


Beef short ribs are small rib sections taken from the underside or shoulder of the cow. Beef cuts taken from these areas tend to be tough with lots of connective tissues. Since short ribs can be tough, you'll need to marinade them before marinade. A good marinade will caramelize on the surface of the broiled meat giving you a sweet, tangy flavor. Broiling only takes a few minutes so you may prepare your meat recipe last to serve it hot.


Instructions


1. Pour your marinade mixture into a glass bowl or casserole dish. Pierce the short ribs with a fork to allow the marinade to permeate the meat. Place the short ribs in the dish and turn them over a few times.


2. Allow the ribs to soak for one to two hours turning them at least twice during the marinade process.


3. Preheat the oven to the broil setting. Move the top rack to the middle of the oven. Turn on your exhaust fan to absorb any smoke.


4. Place the marinaded ribs on a broiler pan and slide it into the heated oven. Broil for 10 minutes then turn the ribs over. Brush the ribs with the leftover marinade. Broil 10 minutes on the other side.


5. Remove the ribs from the oven using padded oven mitts. Allow the ribs to sit for 2 to 3 minutes before serving.
