Notes
- Slow Cooking Tip: If you have a slow cooker, you can also cook the beef short ribs on low for 6-8 hours instead of using the oven. This will make them even more tender.
- Flavor Adjustment: Adjust the sweetness or saltiness of the sauce by adding more brown sugar or soy sauce to taste.
- Substitute for Beef Broth: If you don’t have beef broth, you can use vegetable broth for a lighter version or chicken broth if preferred.
- Resting the Meat: Allow the beef ribs to rest for a few minutes after cooking. This helps the juices redistribute and keeps the meat tender.
- Serve with: These ribs pair wonderfully with mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a simple green salad.
