Buffalo-style beef bites

INGREDIENTS:

1-1/2 to 2 pounds beef Country-Style Ribs, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
3/4 cup beef broth
2 tablespoons plus 1/4 cup hot pepper sauce for Buffalo wings, divided
2 teaspoons garlic powder
2 teaspoons onion powder
1/4 cup blue cheese crumbles
Carrot and celery sticks (optional)

COOKING:

Heat oil in large stockpot over medium heat until hot. Brown half of beef ribs; remove from stockpot. Repeat with remaining beef.

Return beef to stockpot. Add beef broth, 2 tablespoons buffalo sauce, garlic powder and onion powder; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover tightly and simmer 1-3/4 to 2 hours or until beef is fork-tender.

Remove beef from cooking liquid to large bowl; discard cooking liquid or reserve for another use. Toss beef with remaining 1/4 cup buffalo sauce. Sprinkle with blue cheese crumbles. Serve with carrot and celery sticks, if desired.

Cook's Tip: Beef ribs can be served on 6-inch wooden skewers or with wooden toothpicks.
