Braised Short Rib Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the Ribs

   Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C). Season the short ribs with salt and black pepper.

2. 2

   Sear the Ribs

   In a large Dutch oven, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Sear the short ribs on all sides until browned, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.

3. 3

   Sauté Vegetables

   In the same pot, add the chopped onion, carrots, and celery. Sauté until softened, about 5-7 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute.

4. 4

   Deglaze the Pot

   Pour in the red wine and scrape the bottom of the pot to release any browned bits. Bring to a simmer and let reduce by half.

5. 5

   Add Broth and Herbs

   Add the beef broth, thyme, and bay leaves to the pot. Return the short ribs to the pot, ensuring they are submerged in the liquid.

6. 6

   Braise

   Cover the pot and transfer it to the preheated oven. Braise for about 3 hours or until the meat is tender and falling off the bone.

7. 7

   Rest and Serve

   Remove the pot from the oven and let the ribs rest for 10-15 minutes before serving. Skim off any excess fat from the surface.
