Short Rib Tacos Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Short Ribs

    In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Season the short ribs with salt and pepper. Sear the ribs on all sides until browned, about 8-10 minutes. Remove from pot and set aside.

  2. 2

    Cook the Aromatics

    In the same pot, add chopped onion and minced garlic. Sauté until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes.

  3. 3

    Add the Ribs and Broth

    Return the short ribs to the pot. Add beef broth, cumin, chili powder, and additional salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer.

  4. 4

    Slow Cook the Ribs

    Cover and reduce heat to low. Cook for 2-3 hours until the ribs are tender and falling off the bone.

  5. 5

    Make the Spicy Mayo

    In a small bowl, mix together mayonnaise, Sriracha, lime juice, and garlic powder until well combined.

  6. 6

    Prepare the Chimichurri

    In a bowl, combine chopped parsley, oregano, minced garlic, red wine vinegar, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Mix well and adjust seasoning to taste.

  7. 7

    Assemble the Tacos

    Once the ribs are done, shred the meat and return it to the pot to soak up the juices. Warm the corn tortillas on a skillet. Fill each tortilla with shredded short rib, drizzle with spicy mayo, and top with chimichurri. Garnish with chopped cilantro and serve with lime wedges.
