Boneless Short Ribs Chili
Slow-cooked over low heat for several hours. The fork-tender boneless short ribs with a thick decadent chili sauce are perfect for a cold, wet, wintery day. My Boneless Short Ribs Chili recipe uses the same basic spice mix I use in my Real Texas Chili recipe. But unlike Texas Chili, I like the addition of black beans to this mix.
