Sandwich Assembly

Method

Preparing the Short Ribs

  1. 1

    Season and Sear

    Preheat the oven to 325°F (165°C). Season the short ribs with salt and pepper. In a large oven-safe pot, heat olive oil over medium-high heat and sear the short ribs on all sides until browned. Remove and set aside.

  2. 2

    Sauté Aromatics

    In the same pot, add chopped onion and minced garlic. Sauté until the onion is translucent.

  3. 3

    Deglaze and Braise

    Add red wine to deglaze the pot, scraping up any browned bits. Add beef broth, thyme, and bay leaves. Return the short ribs to the pot. Cover and braise in the oven for 2.5 to 3 hours until tender.

Making BBQ Mayonnaise

  1. 4

    Mix Ingredients

    In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise and BBQ sauce. Mix well until fully combined.

Assembling the Sandwich

  1. 5

    Shred Meat

    Once the short ribs are done, remove them from the pot and shred the meat, discarding the bones and excess fat.

  2. 6

    Build Sandwich

    Spread BBQ mayonnaise on the insides of the bread rolls. Layer with shredded short ribs, Swiss cheese, and arugula. Close the sandwich.

  3. 7

    Serve

    Serve the sandwiches warm, optionally grilling them for a few minutes to melt the cheese.
