Beef Short Ribs

Roasted Vegetable Trio

Merlot Truffle Reduction

Method

Beef Short Ribs

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ribs

    Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C). Season the beef short ribs with salt and black pepper generously on all sides.

  2. 2

    Sear the Ribs

    In a large Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the short ribs and sear until browned on all sides, about 8-10 minutes. Remove the ribs and set aside.

  3. 3

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In the same pot, add the diced onion, carrots, and celery. Sauté until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute.

  4. 4

    Add Liquid and Herbs

    Pour in the beef broth and Merlot wine, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot. Add the thyme and bay leaf.

  5. 5

    Braise the Ribs

    Return the short ribs to the pot, ensuring they are submerged in the liquid. Cover and place in the preheated oven. Braise for 2.5 to 3 hours, or until the meat is tender and falling off the bone.

Roasted Vegetable Trio

  1. 6

    Prepare Vegetables

    While the ribs are braising, prepare the vegetables. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).

  2. 7

    Season and Roast

    In a mixing bowl, combine the sliced zucchini, chopped bell pepper, and trimmed asparagus. Drizzle with olive oil, and season with salt and black pepper. Toss to coat evenly.

  3. 8

    Roast the Vegetables

    Spread the vegetables in a single layer on a baking sheet. Roast in the oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until tender and slightly caramelized.

Merlot Truffle Reduction

  1. 9

    Make the Reduction

    In a small saucepan, combine the Merlot wine and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Reduce by half, about 10-15 minutes.

  2. 10

    Finish the Sauce

    Remove the saucepan from heat and whisk in the truffle oil and butter until melted and smooth. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
