- Ready In:
- 2hrs 30mins
- Ingredients:
- 9
- Serves:
-
6-8
ingredients
- 4 lbs beef short ribs
- 4 ancho chilies
- 4 chiles de arbol (optional)
- 1 tablespoon dried oregano
- 4 garlic cloves
- 1⁄2 tablespoon powdered cumin
- 1⁄3 cup red wine vinegar
- 1⁄3 cup cooking oil
- 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
directions
- Score the ribs by slicing them at 1/4-inch intervals 1 way and then the other across the fatty tops, as if you were setting up a crossword puzzle.
- Remove the seeds and stems from the chiles, soak them in hot water for 20 minutes, drain and place them in a blender jar. Add the oregano, garlic, cumin, vinegar, oil and salt. Blend the mixture for 1 minute. (if the mixture is too thick to blend properly, add a little water and continue). Pour the chile sauce over the ribs and marinate, refrigerated for 2 hours.
- Cook the ribs at 2 to 2 1/2 feet from mesquite coals for 1 to 2 hours or until they are tender. If your barbecue will not accommodate this distance cook the ribs over very low direct heat, or in a Texas style smoker.

<p>Hey all! I am a weekend cook....hence the lazy gourmet title.</p>
<p><br />I'm a veterinary technician with an animal shelter in Chicago. I take care of approximately 150 cats and 20 dogs on any one day in the rehabilitation unit. It's a good feeling job. <br /><br />I've been married to a keeper who I just celebrated my 13th anniversary with. We have our furry children - right now seven cats, two rabbits and two guinea pigs, along with my current foster dog who is recovering from a stint at a puppy mill (BOO HISS PUPPY MILLS). <br /><br />So enjoy my recipes! <br /><br />lazy</p>
