Braise the Ribs
Bring the mixture to a simmer, cover the pot, and reduce the heat to low. Let it braise for about 2.5 to 3 hours, or until the meat is tender and falling off the bone.

Finish the Sauce
Once done, remove the ribs from the pot and set aside. Skim any excess fat from the surface of the braising liquid. If desired, you can thicken the sauce by simmering it uncovered for an additional 10-15 minutes.
