Beef short ribs, marinated shortly in a honey barbecue marinade, are baked until fork-tender, basted often with the reserved marinade.

Recipe Ingredients:

1 cup white vinegar
1/2 cup honey
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1/2 cup ketchup
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon dry mustard
1 teaspoon paprika
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 garlic cloves, finely minced
4 pounds beef short ribs

Cooking Directions:

1. Combine all ingredients, except beef short ribs, in small saucepan and bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer, covered, for 15 minutes.
2. Place ribs in a single layer on a jelly roll pan. Pour hot sauce over ribs and marinate for 1 hour. Drain the sauce, reserve for basting.
3. Bake ribs, uncovered, in oven at 325°F (160°C) for 1 hour or until tender, basting occasionally with reserved marinade.

Makes 4 to 6 servings.
