Kittencals Oven Roasted Beef Short Ribs Food

KITTENCAL'S BEEF BRISKET (OR BEEF SHORT RIBS)

Steps:

• A day ahead: Grease a large roaster or a roasting pan (I use my large lasagna pan for this).
• Sprinkle the chopped onions in the bottom of the pan.
• In a small bowl or cup mix together all rub ingredients.
• Rinse brisket under cold water, then dry with a paper towel.
• Rub the brisket lightly with vegetable or Canola oil.
• Rub the minced garlic and rub spices over both sides of the brisket, then place into the roaster pan/dish (fat-side down).
• Pour the barbecue sauce over the top of the brisket, do not rub into the meat, as it will disturb the rub spices, just leave the sauce sitting on top of the brisket, some will drizzle over the sides, not to worry!.
• Cover tightly with foil and place in the fridge.
• The following morning turn the brisket over to fat side up.
• Add in the 1 cup water and mix with the sauce in the pan (just mix together the best you can, it does not have to be completely mixed with the BBQ sauce, it will all cook together).
• With clean hands, rub the sauce all over the top of the brisket.
• Cover very tighty (if using foil make a couple of slits in the top of the foil to let steam escape) return to the fridge until ready to cook (for at least another 2 hours.
• Set oven to 325 degrees.
• Remove from the roaster from fridge (preperably 1 hour before cooking and leave on the counter).
• Cook for a about 4-5 hours or more depending on the size of your brisket, or until the brisket is tender (check for doneness after about 3 hours cooking, by inserting a fork into the brisket the meat will be done if the fork goes in very easily).
• Remove and let the brisket sit for 15 minutes before sliceing, then slice against the grain.
• Spoon any fat that has accumulated on top of the sauce, and serve the sauce on the side.
• Delicious!

KITTENCAL'S OVEN-ROASTED BEEF SHORT RIBS

Steps:

• Set oven to 350 degrees F.
• Heat bacon fat (or oil if using, can use both) in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat.
• In a shallow dish mix together flour, seasoning salt, black pepper and garlic powder.
• Dredge the short ribs in the flour mixture to coat, shaking off any excess flour on ribs.
• Brown the ribs in the Dutch oven working in batches until lightly browned on all sides; remove to a plate.
• Pour off all but about 2-3 tablespooons fat, and add in the onions, chopped garlic and thyme; saute until lightly browned.
• Add in broth and red wine; bring to a boil, stirring.
• Return the ribs to the Dutch oven (if possible in a single layer).
• Add in the fresh small button mushrooms (if using, no need to saute the mushrooms first).
• Cover with a lid and simmer for about 2 hours, or until the ribs are desired tenderness.
• Season with salt and pepper to taste.
• **NOTE** this is only optional: remove the ribs to a platter to keep warm and drain the cooking liquid through a sieve, then transfer the liquid to a saucepan to simmer and reduce slightly and thicken, scimming any fat that has accumulated on top, or you can just serve the sauce just as is from the Dutch oven.
• Pour the sauce over the ribs.

SHORT RIBS OF BEEF

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. In a large ovenproof saute pan or roasting pan, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.
• Sprinkle the short ribs on all sides with the salt, pepper, garlic salt and seasoned salt. Pat the seasonings into the meat. Dredge the short ribs in the flour and pat off any excess flour.
• Place the short ribs in the pan and sear until browned on both sides, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the garlic, carrots, celery and onions and saute for 3 minutes. Add the wine and simmer for 5 minutes. Stir in the chicken stock, veal stock, water, undrained tomatoes and Worcestershire sauce. Bring to a simmer. Cover and place in the oven. Roast for 2 hours. Then add the potatoes, cover and roast for an additional 30 minutes.
• Be sure to occasionally check the liquid in the pan to make sure there is enough to keep the meat moist and simmering. Add more stock if necessary.
• Serve over Three Cheese Polenta.
• In a large saucepan combine water, polenta and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Stir over high heat until mixture boils; reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer polenta for 25 to 30 minutes or until smooth, whisking occasionally to ensure a smooth consistency. Remove from heat and stir in the cheeses and butter. Add salt and pepper to taste. Set aside and keep warm.

KITTENCAL'S BEST AND EASIEST BABY BACK RIBS

• Place each rack onto top of the greased side of foil, then wrap tightly.
• Refrigerate 8-24 hours.
• Set oven to 300 degrees F.
• Bake the ribs wrapped tightly in foil for 2-1/2 hours, opening up the foil the last 20-30 minutes and basting with more sauce (remove about halfway through cooking and drain any water/grease that has accumulated in the foil).
• If desired you may place the ribs under the broiler heat for about 7 minutes per side.

SIMPLE BEEF SHORT RIBS

Steps:

• Season the short ribs with salt and pepper, then dredge in flour until coated. Shake off the excess flour.
• Heat the olive oil and butter in a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Cook the ribs until browned on each side, about 5 minutes per side. Remove from the skillet and set aside. Add the onion and garlic to the skillet; cook and stir until onion is tender, about 5 minutes. Return the ribs to the skillet and pour in the beer. Stir, scraping the bottom of the pan, until all of the browned bits have mixed in with the liquid. Pour in the beef stock, cover and simmer over low heat until very tender, about 2 hours.

KITTENCAL'S PERFECT PRIME RIB ROAST BEEF

Steps:

• Using a knife, poke small holes all over uncooked roast, and insert a half of a clove of fresh garlic in the hole (as many holes and as much garlic as desired).
• Cover roast, and refrigerate overnight.
• The next day, remove the roast from fridge and uncover; let sit out at room temperature for about 2 to 2-1/2 hours (this is an important step to relax the meat fibers, it will make for a more tender juicy roast, the length of counter-time will depend on the size of your roast).
• Set oven to 450°F and allow the oven to preheat for a minimum of 15 minutes.
• Season the roast with only a small amount of salt but lots of fresh ground black pepper pepper (that's all nothing else but a little salt and fresh ground black pepper, using any other spices will take away the flavor from the prime rib!).
• Place the roast fat-side up on a rack in a shallow-sided pan, then insert a meat thermometer in the middle of the roast but not touching any rib bones.
• Roast uncovered at 450°F for 20 minutes (a few more minutes won't hurt at 450°F).
• After 20 minutes of high heat cooking reduce heat to 350°F and continue to roast for 1 hour to 1 hour and 15 minutes OR until the meat thermometer reads 130°F for rare doneness OR 140°F for medium-rare doneness, that is the way a prime rib really should be served, check your roast after 1 hour cooking time.
• *NOTE* It is strongly advised to remove the roast slightly before desired degree of doneness is achieved as the roast will continue to rise in temperature several degrees after removing from the oven.
• Remove meat to a carving board.
• Cover loosely with foil and allow let rest (DO NOT CUT INTO ROAST for at least 20 or more minutes or all juices in the meat will flow out).
• While the roast is resting prepare the au jus; place the roasting pan on top of the stove over high heat.
• Add in the wine; cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring and scraping any brown bits.
• Add in the beef stock; cook and reduce the juice by half (this might take about 20 minutes).
• Add salt and pepper to taste.
• Slice roast (just before serving!) and drizzle with some of the juice.
• *NOTE* if desired you can cover the roast loosely with foil the first hour and then uncover and cook for the remaining time.
• --------------------------------------------.
• APPROXIMATE COOKING TIMES for the prime rib cooked at 350°F after the 20 minute cooking time at 450°F.
• Rare; cook 12-13 minutes per pound or to 130°F.
• Medium-rare; cook 14-16 minutes per pound or to 140°F (I would not recommend cooking a prime rib any more than medium-rare).
• Since every oven cooks differently cooking times are only approximate.
• SUGGESTED SERVING PORTIONS PER PERSON ----for a generous serving of prime rib roast you should figure on 2 people per rib, that means if you plan to serve 6 people you should be able to do so with 3 ribs/ eight people with 4 ribs/ do not bother with less than 3 ribs anything less than that is not a roast but rather a steak and would be better treated as such.

ROASTED PRIME RIB BONES OR BEEF SHORT RIBS

Steps:

• Prepare and grease a casserole or baking pan (large enough to hold ribs and sauce).
• Season prime rib bones (baby back pork ribs if using) with seasoning salt, pepper and garlic powder.
• Place the ribs in the casserole dish, and bake uncovered in a 350 degree oven for about 45-50 minutes; drain any fat.
• In a bowl mix together the garlic, ketchup vineger, both sugars, chili powder, cayenne pepper and mustard powder; mix well to combine.
• Add in chopped onions; mix well.
• Pour the sauce over ribs, and mix with your hands to coat the ribs.
• Bake uncovered for about 1 - 1-1/2 hours or until the beef (or pork) ribs are tender (baste occasionally, and season sauce salt and pepper if desired).
• Delicious!

INSANE OVEN BEEF RIBS

Steps:

• Place the ribs in a large pot, and fill with enough water to cover. Bring to a boil, and cook until the meat is no longer pink, about 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). In a medium bowl, stir together the soy sauce, red wine, olive oil, flour, brown sugar, garlic and curry powder.
• Drain the ribs, and coat generously with the sauce. Arrange them on a baking sheet.
• Roast for about 30 minutes in the preheated oven, or until fork tender. Pour the remainder of the sauce over the ribs about halfway through.
