Oven-BBQ Short Ribs with Squash and Leeks
You may have noticed that my recipe page is currently a little short on meat recipes. I tend to eat a lot more fish and eggs than red meat – but when I go for meat I really go for it. So, when I saw that Food 52 is having a Short Rib Contest, I thought…what better time than the present for going seriously carnivore? There are a lot of amazing recipes in my collection – and many of them have the “something I wouldn’t usually do in the 21st century” quality that I go for. The one I picked out of The Gold Cook Book is billed as “barbecue” but it turned out to more of a braise, cooked in tangily flavored beef broth. I figured another Gold Cook Book recipe – for Acorn Squash Rings – would add a little sweetness, freshness, and yummy winter flavor. Besides, I got a squash today at the farmer’s market…
