During the last visit from the kids they did the cooking while they were here. They made lasagna one day, bread pudding for breakfast, and these great beef short ribs and all the side dishes to go with the meat.

​2 tbsp Coarse Black Pepper (freshly ground is best)
​2 tbsp Kosher Salt
​1 tbsp Garlic Powder
​1 tbsp Onion Powder
​1 tsp Smoked Paprika
​½ tsp Ground Cumin

They coated them in spices and browned them on top of the stove before adding some BBQ sauce and putting them in the slow cooker for several hours

The ribs were brushed with more BBQ sauce and finished off under the broiler. They were fork tender and tasted quite amazing!

They were served with homemade cornbread and delicious baked beans, and coleslaw made with cabbage.

And birthday cake from the "Nothing Bundt Cakes" bakery for dessert!

Two flavors of cake. Oreos Cookies and Cream and Chocolate Chocolate Chip.

It was a great celebration and a fun time with the family together.
