Hello again

 I haven't used this for anything but occasionally reading my friends list in a long time. I'm going to start using it for several different things, some of them more visible than others. One of them is occasional food experiments. That's what I'm going to start with, anyway. The others will start showing up as well eventually. 

crock pot short ribs

 

We'd had 3 pounds of boneless short ribs in the freezer for a while, waiting for me to do something with them.  I've never made short ribs before, so I googled a bit, and found a recipe that looked easy enough without a huge dependence on sugar for sauce. It turned out reasonably tender.
