    Made these the other night and they were amazing. House smelled great and dinner was very quiet except for the nom nom sounds. The only issue I have is that ribs aren’t cheap from US Wellness and I don’t have any more of them to make it again.

    I also see (as lalamompaleo mentioned) that the measurements amount for chipotle as not been transcribed from the old website!
    It’s 1 teaspoon on The Food Lovers Primal Palate
    This is one of my favorite recipes and I had never even made it with bacon! We’ve got a batch in the slow cooker as I type with bacon and all – I’ll come back and let you know how delicious it is. We’re following it up with the carrot cake b/c my husband just got back from being gone for 2 months and we’re celebrating!

    I make these all the time. I’ve only had these short ribs- no others- so I can’t compare them to any other recipe, but I love this one so much that I know any other recipe will not taste as good! the flavors are perfect and have just a little kick, not too spicy at all. I look forward to them every time I make them. they are my favorite meal!

    the original recipe does have chipotle powder in it- I just use a big spoonful because I tend to use more than 2 3/4 lbs of short ribs. usually 4 lbs.

    These were sensational! I didn’t have chipoltle so I just used regular paprika and they were still amazing. Yum!
