Citrus Spice Short Ribs Recipe

Citrus Spice Short Ribs

From sheba 16 years ago

I adapted this from an internet recipe and my family loves it. Serve with rice or mashed potatoes and green beans. Wonderful aroma when cooking.

Adjust the liquid and seasonings to the amount of ribs you are using. I usually halve the recipe ie 2 lbs for two of us and 1/2 the ingredients because we like lots of sauce shopping list
5 -10 lbs Short ribs, or many as needed to feed your family shopping list
2 cups beef broth shopping list
2 cups fresh orange juice from about 4 oranges shopping list
1 - 28 oz can whole tomatoes shopping list
2 bay leaves shopping list
4 whole star anise shopping list
6 whole cloves shopping list
1 cinnamon stick, I substitute 1 tsp ground cinnamon shopping list
3 whole sprigs thyme, I use 1 tsp dried shopping list
olive oil for searing ribs shopping list
salt & pepper to taste shopping list
3 cloves garlic, minced shopping list
cumin to taste shopping list

Heat oil in a large stock pot. Add ribs that have been salted and peppered. Brown ribs well on all sides. Remove ribs from the pot onto a plate. Add remaining ingredients to the pot and bring up to a simmer. Add short ribs back to pot.
Cover and place in 300-350 degree oven and braise 4-6 hours or until the meat is very tender.
Remove from oven, allow to cool and then refrigerate overnight so that fat can be removed. Return covered pot to a 350 degree oven fro about 1 hour or until heat through. Remove short ribs from pot, let stand covered to keep war. Strain sauce into a saucepan and reduce sauce over high heat until thickened.
Serve over ribs.
