Saucy Short Ribs
(zesty BBQ flavor makes this special)
from my friend Cyndy in Carmel
History: Page 25 from an unknown cook book sent to me after a visit to Carmel.

4 lbs. short ribs of beef
1 cup catsup
1/4 cup garlic-flavored wine vinegar
3/4 cup chopped onion
2 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspon dry mustard
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper

Place short ribs in slow cooking pot. Combine catsup, vinegar, onion, sugar, dry mustard, chili powder, salt and pepper; pour over ribs. Cover and cook at “low” for 10-12 hours; at “high” for 5-6 hours. Skim off fat before serving. Makes 4-6 servings.
On an old crockpot, 5-6 hours is great. I substitute dried onion, or fresh mustard, or larger beef ribs. This is a win/win dish!
