Tenderizing Tough Cuts of Meat
// The art of slow cooking is not just about throwing a bunch of ingredients in a pot and letting it cook.
// It's about technique, patience, and a hint of sophistication.
// Example Recipe:
// 1 lb short ribs
// 1/4 cup brown sugar
// 1/4 cup soy sauce
// 1 tablespoon black pepper
// Place the ribs in the slow cooker, then sprinkle the brown sugar and soy sauce evenly over them.
// Add 1 tablespoon black pepper, then stir until the ribs are well coated.
// Cook on low for 8 hours, or until the ribs are tender and fall-off-the-bone delicious.
