This amazing beef short ribs recipe is so easy to make with a couple of off-the-shelf additions.
The honey-chili sauce combination is wonderful.
Of course, everything tastes better with the addition of a few cloves of garlic!
This is an any season recipe, but obviously works best in those months you don’t mind having the oven on. I love the idea of these wonderful short ribs on a cool autumn or winter day. So tummy warming.
This beef rib recipe becomes a tasty oven baked beef back ribs recipe simply by replacing the short ribs with back ribs and increasing the baking time as shown.
Enjoy!
