Braised Beef Short Ribs Recipe

How to make it

---

• Heat an oven to 350 F.
• Season the short ribs with salt and pepper. Set aside.
• Heat a large braising pan on a stove top to medium heat and add the oil.
• Once the oil is slightly hot, but not smoking, add the short ribs and carefully sear on all sides, lightly caramelizing until golden brown.
• Remove the short ribs from the pan and continue until all short ribs are complete.
• Turn down the heat under the braising pan and add the garlic, herbs and vegetables.
• Cook the vegetables lightly for 10 minutes and then place the short ribs in with the vegetables.
• Add the red wine and the veal stock and cover the braising pan with aluminum foil or a lid to cover.
• Place the braising pan in the oven and braise for 4-6 hours or until tender.
• (Short ribs may all braise differently as the fat content may vary; this is one particular reason you must take note of the timing you braise your short ribs.)
• Once tender remove from the oven and place in a cooler to chill.
• Once the short ribs have chilled, remove from the liquid and then strain the liquid through a colander.
• Place the braising liquid in a sauce pot and reduce until a sauce consistency is developed. Set the sauce aside.
• To serve: Place the braised short ribs in the reduced braising sauce and heat through slowly. Remove from the pan and plate, spooning the sauce over the short ribs.
