BEEF

MAPLE-BOURBON SHORT RIBS

THAI-STYLE LIME &BASIL SHORT RIBS

Season the short ribs with salt and pepper. In a arge, heavy frying pan over medium-high heat, warm 2 tablespoons of the oil. Working in batches if needed to avoid crowding, add the ribs and sear, turning as needed, until browned on both sides, about 6 minutes. Transfer the ribs to a slow cooker in an even ayer.

In the same pan over medium heat, warm the remaining 1 tablespoon oil. Add the onion and cook, stirring often, until slightly caramelized, about 10 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Pour in the bourbon and maple syrup and cook, stirring often, until reduced by half, about 3 minutes. Stir in the stock, rosemary, tomato paste, and Worcestershire sauce. Remove from the heat.

Pour the contents of the pan over the ribs in the slow cooker. Cover and cook on the low setting for 6 hours. The beef should be very tender.

Transfer the ribs to a pate. Strain the cooking liquid into a saucepan. Let stand for a few minutes. Using a arge spoon, skim the fat from the surface of the cooking liquid. Pace the saucepan on the stove top over medium-high heat, bring to a rapid simmer, and cook until slightly reduced, about 10 minutes.

Spoon the sweet potatoes onto pates, arrange the ribs on top. Drizzle the gaze over the ribs and serve.

Season the short ribs with salt and pepper and put them in a slow cooker in an even ayer.

In a bowl, stir together the shallots, garlic, chiles, soy sauce, lime juice, sugar, fish sauce, and half of the basil, mixing well. Pour over the ribs and turn the ribs to coat evenly with the sauce. Tuck the lime leaves into the sauce around the ribs.

Cover and cook on the low setting for 6 hours, turning the ribs once or twice during cooking if possible. The beef should be very tender.

Using tongs, carefully transfer the ribs to a serving patter and keep warm. Remove and discard the lime leaves. Let the sauce stand for a few minutes. Using a arge spoon, skim the fat from the surface of the sauce.

Stir the remaining basil into the sauce. Pour the sauce over the ribs and serve.
