I received this recipe in an email today - thought I'd share!

Tonight I'm making Carol1229's Aisan Barbecued Pork Loin, but this one might be one I use soon!

I'll report back on Carol1229's recipe! Her recipes are the BEST, so I am sure we will LOVE it!!

Blackened New Orleans Braised Short Ribs from Campbell's Kitchen

3 to 4 pounds beef short ribs, cut into serving-sized pieces
2 tablespoons Creole seasoning (one reviewer said to leave out)
4 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 large onions, coarsely chopped (about 2 cups)
3 large carrots, coarsely chopped (about 1 1/2 cups)
3 stalks celery, coarsely chopped (about 1 1/2 cups)
6 cloves garlic, minced
6 sprigs fresh thyme leaves
1 can (about 6 ounces) tomato paste
1 bottle (12 fluid ounces) dark beer (same reviewer subbed cream sherry)
4 cups Swanson® Beef Broth or Swanson® Beef Stock
1 3/4 cups Swanson® Vegetable Broth (Regular or Certified Organic)

1 Season the ribs with the Creole seasoning. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a 6-quart saucepot over medium-high heat. Add the ribs in 2 batches and cook until they’re well browned on all sides. Remove the ribs from the saucepot. Pour off any fat.

2 Reduce the heat to medium and add the remaining oil. Add the onions and carrots and cook until the vegetables are well browned, stirring occasionally. Add the celery, garlic and thyme and cook until the celery is tender.

3 Stir the tomato paste and beer in the saucepot. Cook and stir for 5 minutes, scraping up the browned bits from the bottom of the saucepot. Stir in the beef broth and vegetable broth and heat to a boil. Return the ribs to the saucepot and reduce the heat to low.

4 Cover and cook for 2 hours or until the ribs are fork-tender. Remove the ribs from the saucepot and keep them warm.

5 Strain the cooking liquid and return it to the pot. Cook over medium-high heat for 20 minutes or until the cooking liquid is slightly thickened. Serve the ribs with the sauce.
