Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Short Ribs

    Season the short ribs with salt and black pepper. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and sear the ribs on all sides until browned.

  2. 2

    Cook the Ribs

    Add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for about 3 minutes. Pour in the beef broth to deglaze the pan, scraping up any browned bits. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 2 to 3 hours until the ribs are tender.

  3. 3

    Shred the Short Ribs

    Once the short ribs are cooked, remove them from the skillet and let them cool slightly. Shred the meat using two forks, discarding any bones or excess fat.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Grilled Cheese

    Butter one side of each slice of sourdough bread. Lay half of the bread slices butter-side down in a skillet. Add a layer of shredded short ribs, then top with cheddar cheese. Place the remaining slices of bread on top, butter-side up.

  5. 5

    Grill the Sandwich

    Heat the skillet over medium heat until the bottom of the sandwich is golden and crispy. Carefully flip the sandwich and grill the other side until the cheese is melted and the bread is golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Remove the grilled cheese from the skillet, slice in half, and serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce or side.
