Recipe of the Week - Sticky BBQ Short Ribs with Loaded Baked Potatoes & Creamy Coleslaw
The Beef
- Season L Bar Beef Short Ribs generously with Beau's Blend and let sit for 30–45 minutes.
- Preheat the smoker to 250°F, using oak or hickory for a rich, smoky flavor.
- Place ribs bone-side down and smoke for 3–4 hours, until a deep bark develops.
- Brush generously with your favorite barbecue sauce mixed with a little honey and apple c***r vinegar.
- Continue smoking until the ribs are probe-tender, typically around 200–205°F internal temperature. Allow roughly 6–8 hours total, depending on thickness.
- Brush with one final coat of sauce and let it caramelize for 10–15 minutes.
- Rest for 20–30 minutes before serving.
The Plate
- Bake large russet potatoes at 425°F for 50–60 minutes, until fluffy inside with crispy skins.
- Split and load with butter, sour cream, shredded cheddar, chopped green onions, and crispy bacon.
- Toss shredded cabbage and carrots with mayo, apple c***r vinegar, a little sugar, and cracked black pepper for a tangy coleslaw.
- Serve the sticky, smoky ribs alongside the loaded potatoes and cool, creamy slaw. Keep extra barbecue sauce handy!
