SMOKED SHORT RIBS WITH PICKLED PEPPERS
If you've always wanted to make ribs like a pro-falling-off-the-bone tender, with a satisfyingly crackly crust-this is your recipe. Make this a weekend project because you'll be brining, basting, confiting, pickling, and smoking your heart out. It's a labor of love, but worth every minute!

Steps:
- Brine ribs: In a large pot, add water and bring to just below boiling. Add salt, bay leaves, honey, and lemons. Simmer 5-6 minutes, until the salt and honey dissolve. Chill completely, about 2 hours. Pour brine into 4-gallon container; submerge short ribs. Seal container and brine for 24-36 hours in the refrigerator.
- Make the Garlic Confit: Preheat oven to 300 degrees F. In a small saucepan over medium to low heat, add garlic cloves, olive oil, lemon peel, and bay leaf. Cover and bake until the garlic is tender and golden, 1-1½ hours.
- Light smoker: Place bunched-up newspaper on the grate of a charcoal smoker. Place chimney starter over the newspaper, then fill with charcoal. Light newspaper, which will in turn light the charcoal. When charcoal is mature, with ashed-over gray embers-this will take 30-45 minutes-remove chimney and pour charcoal into lower grill. Place smoker over base. Remove lid and position grill rack in the middle position of the smoker.
- Begin smoking ribs: Remove ribs from brine and pat dry with paper towels. Season liberally with freshly ground pepper and kosher salt, using hands to adhere seasoning to meat. Place ribs meat-side down on middle rack of smoker. Cover smoker with lid and cook for 35-45 minutes. (Note: You will be checking the ribs 4 or 5 times during the cooking process, at 35-45 minute intervals.)
- For pickled peppers: Place whole onion in top of smoker and cook until it has a "molten" interior, about 3½ hours. Meanwhile, toast spices in saucepan over medium heat until fragrant, 2-3 minutes. Add vinegar, water, salt, and sugar, bring to a boil, and cook just until sugar and salt dissolve, 2-3 minutes; then turn off heat. In the meantime, cut a slit down each pepper and pull out the seeds and veins. Place the whole peppers into warm brine. Set aside.
- Check smoker temperature: Thermometer on lid should consistently read 325-350 degrees F during first 1½ hours of smoking. Adjust airflow by opening or closing channel of chimney; more air produces a higher temperature. Keep vents open for smoking short ribs (except on very windy days, when you want to partially open vents to avoid blowing out flames). Smoke should be white and clean with a sweet perfume. If it smells sour or acrid, the fire is too hot. Remove lid and check ribs. Bones should have begun to slightly pull away from flesh. Flesh should show some browning and start of caramelization. Replace lid and continue cooking, another 35-45 minutes.
- For the butter mop: Heat small saucepan over medium-high heat. Add ¾ cup of the Garlic Confit. (The rest can be stored in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.) Using a whisk, break confit into a chunky paste. Allow to sizzle, 2-3 minutes. Add the lemon peel, then the vinegar, and cook, stirring occasionally, until mixture becomes a thick paste and vinegar has mostly evaporated, 2 minutes. Add butter, 2 tablespoons at a time, whisking with each addition. Bring butter just to a boil, then reduce heat to low. Whisk in mustard and a few grinds of black pepper, and set aside.
- Check temperature and baste ribs: Smoker thermometer should now read 250-275 degrees F. Remove lid and check ribs. At this point, the meat should be very clearly pulling away from the bones, with caramelization all over. To keep bones from burning, place heavy-duty foil directly on the grill and flip ribs so they're lying bone-side down on foil. Baste the meat on top and sides: first with butter mop, then with a layer of Worcestershire sauce. Replace lid of smoker and continue cooking, another 35-45 minutes.
- Check temperature and baste ribs: Ribs have now been smoking for about 2 hours. Smoker temperature should remain at 250-275 degrees F; add more coal to the smoker if necessary. Remove lid and check meat by poking and prodding: the ribs should still feel tense, with a "spongy" texture. Baste liberally with butter mop, then more of the Worcestershire. Turn onion and, using tongs, poke to see if interior is cooked through. (It should feel molten.) Replace lid of smoker and continue cooking, 35-45 more minutes. Repeat step again, checking temperature and basting ribs. Cook another 35-45 minutes.
- Check the ribs and baste: Stick a small knife onto the fattest part of the meat between the bones. The meat should be approaching "fork-tender" status, and developing a mahogany exterior. Baste ribs with butter mop, then more Worcestershire. Vents in the smoker should be fully open, allowing temperature to stay at a high and steady heat. Turn onion and place lid back on smoker. Continue cooking, another 1½ hours.
- Finish ribs and serve: After ribs have been smoking for about 5½ hours, check them by sticking a small knife into fattiest part of the meat, between bones. They should be "barbecue tender," not "braising tender," the interior soft and chewy, with a bark-like exterior. Remove onion. Give cooked ribs one final sear at a high heat, either by placing ribs meat side down on hot grill for 35-45 seconds or by raising temperature of smoker. Then remove ribs from heat. To serve, slice along bone in big pieces and place on a large platter. Scatter olives, hand-torn strips of pickled peppers, and parsley over ribs. Cut onion in half and place alongside ribs. Drizzle olive oil over the dish, sprinkle with salt, pepper, and a few dashes of the pickling liquid, and serve.

Steps:
- Heat a smoker to 250 degrees F preferably using Texas post oak wood.
- Mix the brown sugar, chile powder, paprika, salt, pepper, cumin and curry in a large bowl by hand into a uniform color and consistency. Set aside.
- Remove the beef ribs from their packaging and rinse under cold water. Trim any large fatty areas off the top of the ribs. Turn the ribs over and remove all of the silver skin. Pack the rub only on the top and sides of the ribs; you want it about 1/8 inch thick.
- Smoke the ribs until they register a consistent interior temperature of 200 degrees F, roughly 11 hours. Let the ribs rest for 30 minutes, then cut into 2-bone portions. Serve with barbecue sauce on the side.
MALTA-BRAISED SHORT RIBS WITH PICKLED SWEET PEPPERS AND YUCCA MASH
This recipe is my Spanglish version of classic American beef stew and potatoes. I love unctuous short ribs braised in malta, topped with bright pickled peppers and plated with mashed yucca instead of potatoes. If you're not familiar with it, malta is a popular Puerto Rican non-alcoholic beverage brewed from barley and hops. I grew up drinking it on the island, and it's perfect for a long braise of short ribs, as its light carbonation helps tenderize while its earthy molasses notes complement the beef. In addition, buttery, nutty yucca is an ideal canvas for gravy, while quick-pickled peppers add much-needed acidity.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
- To make the green paste, add the onion, green pepper, cilantro leaves and stems, garlic and olive oil to a blender and process until a paste forms. If necessary, add a little extra olive oil to help move the paste along.
- Set a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat and add the canola oil and sazon.
- While the oil heats up, dry the short ribs with a paper towel and cover them in a generous amount of salt and pepper. Working in batches, sear the short ribs on all sides, about 4 minutes per side. Remove the ribs to a plate. Add 1/2 cup of the chicken stock to the skillet, stir to deglaze and then set aside.
- Place a large Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the green paste and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Pour in the chicken stock from the skillet, then add the oregano, bay leaves, tomato paste, vinegar, malta and remaining 1 cup chicken stock. Bring to a simmer and add the seared ribs to the Dutch oven.
- Cover the pot, transfer to the oven and cook until the ribs are very tender, about 2 1/2 hours. To serve, spoon the Yucca Mash into a shallow bowl, top with the ribs and spoon over the sauce. Garnish with Pickled Sweet Peppers and cilantro leaves.
- Bring a large saucepan of water to a boil. Add the yucca to the boiling water and enough salt so the water tastes like the sea. Cook until the yucca is fork-tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Drain and set aside.
- Add the cream and butter to a medium pan set over medium heat. As soon as it starts to simmer, add the yucca and mash with a fork or potato masher until just incorporated. Do not overmix as it will make the yucca gluey. Add salt to taste.
- Put the peppers and garlic in a 12- to 16-ounce mason jar.
- In a small pot, bring the vinegar, honey, salt and 1/4 cup water to a boil.
- Add the pickling liquid to the mason jar almost to the tippy top. Let it cool, then put on the lid. Set it aside until serving.

- Set up smoker for indirect smoking, 225f to 250f, with enough fuel to last 10 hours and add 3 chunks of strong smoking wood: Oak, hickory or beech.
- Remove the fat cap and silverskin from the top of the ribs if present, leave a thin layer of fat if possible.
- Remove the membrane from the back of the ribs. This is my personal preference, but you can leave it on if you wish.
- Put peppercorns into a pestle and mortar and grind until still coarse. Add the salt, paprika, garlic powder and cayenne pepper, grind some more and mix fully.
