Directions:
Brown shortribs on all sides in a dutch oven or stock pot over medium-high heat. Turn back heat to medium and drain off fat. Add 1 cup water and one cup beef and simmer until tender and cooked through, adding more water if necessary to keep bottom of pan wet. Meanwhile, make the sauce: Brown onions in butter. Add remaining ingredients and heat over medium heat for 10 minutes or so. Add sauce to ribs and let them simmer on low heat for 1/2 hour or grill over med. coals.

Personal Notes:
This sauce can be used on any meat! I substitute meatballs for the ribs and serve them on mashed potatoes. Serious comfort food! It is also good on chicken or salmon.
