Beef Shortribs

Method

Beef Shortribs

  1. 1

    Season the Shortribs

    Pat the beef shortribs dry with paper towels. Season generously with salt and black pepper on all sides.

  2. 2

    Sear the Shortribs

    In a large heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the shortribs in batches, searing each side for about 3-4 minutes until browned. Remove and set aside.

  3. 3

    Sauté Vegetables

    In the same pot, add the minced garlic and chopped onion. Sauté for about 2-3 minutes until the onion is translucent.

  4. 4

    Add Liquids and Herbs

    Return the shortribs to the pot. Pour in the beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, add fresh thyme, and bay leaves. Bring to a boil.

  5. 5

    Braise the Shortribs

    Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let the shortribs braise for about 3 hours or until tender. Stir occasionally, and add more broth if necessary.

Au Jus

  1. 6

    Prepare Au Jus

    Once the shortribs are done cooking, remove them from the pot and strain the cooking liquid into a saucepan. Skim off excess fat.

  2. 7

    Season Au Jus

    Add soy sauce and black pepper to the strained liquid. Heat over medium heat until warmed through.

Fries

  1. 8

    Prepare Potatoes

    Peel the potatoes and cut them into fries. Soak in cold water for at least 30 minutes to remove excess starch.

  2. 9

    Fry the Potatoes

    In a deep pot, heat vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C). Remove the fries from water, pat dry, and fry in batches for about 4-5 minutes until golden and crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels. Season with salt.
