Very flavorful, but OMG what a pain to find Star Anise - in Chicago!!!! I like Bobby Flay, but he cooks some expensive stuff I'll tell ya. At the local market I still paid nearly $10 for 6 bone-in short rib slices, then the fresh juice, etc. My partner really liked it though - nice flavor, very aromatic. And now that I have a POUND of Star Anise I'll probably make it again, but not necessarily with the same cut of beef.
Thanks Phil, I made a batch of this the other day for the first, it turned out really nicely.
I also had a Moscow Mule for the first time this weekend so I could totally see this for cocktails! Glad you've been enjoying it, now it's time for me to catch up.
