We had beef short ribs and fresh corn on the cob. I browned the short ribs in oil, put them inthe crock pot with a homemade BBQ sauce and just cooked the h___ out of them. The corn was delicious, the ribs just melted in your mouth. I always forget about the beef ribs, usually buy the pork, but our local farmer's market had such nice beef ones AT $1.49 A POUND! that I bought about 5 pounds. I still have meat left for BBQ sandwiches tomorrow with the rest of the corn. Yum!!
