I do not use recipes but I will give this my best shot!.
Pre heat oven to 300
Get a dutch over (must be oven safe and have a lid)
Get some canola oil (do not use olive oil!) and get it hot on the stove!. Place seasoned ribs (a rub, just salt and pepper or whatever you like) into the hot oil and cook until brown!. During this time place some finely chopped onions in there too!. Once the ribs are brown and the onions are slightly brown pour in a mixture of red wine (Shiraz is best) and chicken stock such that the liquid comes up about 3/4 of the way of the ribs!. Place in the oven covered for 2 and 1/2 to 3 hours depending on the size and amount ribs!.
Finish on the bbq with your favorite sauce!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Usually if they are tough, they have not been cooked, slowly, long enough!. If I make short ribs, I braise them, crock-pot them, or par-boil them for a bit, and yes, you can finish them off on the grill!. I'll try to get back with times and temps, but I usually cook by ear!. lol When it looks good, feels good, and tastes good, they're done!
Good luck with the ribs!Www@FoodAQ@Com

Maybe you should try marinating them longer!. They shouldn't be tough unless your flame is to high or the ribs are too close to the flame!. You could bake them first but I think that they'll be even drier!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
As long as you simmer them slowly ( like 4 hours) in a little water and beef stock covered in the oven of 325 degrees!. They will be very tender!. Add some meat tenderizer to be sure!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
