Step 1: Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
Step 2: In a large bowl combine the spices (salt - mustard); add short ribs and rub in the spice mixture coating both sides.
Step 3: In a large oven-safe pot or dutch oven over medium high heat heat 5 tablespoons of the oil and then sear the short ribs on both sides (may have to do this in batches) - about 3-5 minutes per side. Remove ribs from pot as it is browned. After all the meat is removed from the pot add 1 tablespoon of oil and the onions and garlic and saute until caramelized (8-10 minutes). Return short ribs to pot and cover with the barbecue sauce, 2 cups of water and the worcestershire sauce and bring to a boil. Cover and transfer to the oven. Cook for 4 hours or until meat is falling off the bone.
Step 4: Remove meat from the pot and place in a large bowl; discard the bones and shred the meat with 2 forks. Using a ladle skim the fat from the sauce. Add enough of the sauce to the meat to moisten the meat.
Step 5: To assemble the sandwiches: slice the baguette sections in half to form sandwiches and spread each with 1 tablespoon of mayo. Top with 1 cup of meat and 1/4 of the avocado slices.
