Steps:
- Tip the porcini mushrooms into a food processor and blitz to a powder. Put the beef in a roasting tin and rub all over with the porcini powder, smoked salt and plenty of freshly ground black pepper, do this at least 24 hrs before cooking. Cover loosely and place in the fridge overnight.
- Remove the beef from the fridge at least 3 hrs before you want to cook it. Heat oven to 140C/120C fan/gas 2. Uncover the beef and cook for 1 hr 20 mins.
- Turn the oven up to 220C/200C fan/gas 7 and cook for another 25 mins for medium rare until the fat is blistered and browned. If you have a meat thermometer, the core temperature should be 55C for rare, 65C for medium and 75C for well done (bear in mind that the beef will keep cooking and the temperature will continue to rise slightly as it sits). Leave to rest under a piece of foil for at least 20 mins and serve with our bone marrow stuffing, sautéed wild mushrooms and umami gravy.

- Increase oven temperature to 500°F. Remove foil and roast meat until browned and crisp, 5-10 minutes. Immediately transfer to a cutting board. Cut off ribs in 1 piece, then slice into individual ribs. Carve roast into 1/2" slices and arrange on a serving platter along with ribs. Season with sea salt and serve with Horseradish-Yogurt Sauce, if desired.
- Do Ahead
- Rub can be made 1 day ahead; store in an airtight container at room temperature.
BRAISED SHORT RIBS WITH PORCINI-PORT WINE SAUCE RECIPE
Steps:
- Adjust oven rack to lower-middle position and preheat oven to 275°F. Combine porcini mushrooms and water in small bowl. Place a paper towel over the surface of the liquid to keep the mushrooms submerged. Let stand until mushrooms soften, about 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, generously season short ribs with salt and pepper. Heat oil in a Dutch oven medium high heat until whisps of smoke barely begin to show on the surface. Add beef and cook until well browned on all surfaces, 8 to 12 minutes total. Transfer to a large plate and set aside.
- Return Dutch oven to medium heat and heat butter until melted. Add carrots, onion, and celery and cook stirring, until softened and barely beginning to brown, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add tomato paste and cook, stirring continually, until tomato paste takes on a burnished hue and starts to stick to the bottom of the pan, about 3 minutes.
- Add port and red wine to pan, scraping off any browned bits from bottom of pan with a wooden spoon. Bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer. Meanwhile, drain mushrooms through a strainer. Roughly chop the mushrooms, then add mushrooms and their liquid to the pot, along with chicken stock, bay leaves, thyme and browned short ribs.
- Return to a boil, cover, and transfer to the oven. Cook until completely tender, about 3 hours. Remove and discard bay leaves and thyme. Remove meat from bones, and discard bones. Skim fat from top of sauce. Bring sauce to a boil over medium heat and cook until reduced to a sauce-like, mildly thickened consistency, about 5 minutes. Return meat to the pan, season to taste with more salt and pepper, and serve immediately. (See note for serving suggestions).

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
- Heat the oil in a large Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the lardons and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown and the fat has rendered, 6 to 8 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer to a paper towel-lined plate and set aside. Reserve the rendered fat in the Dutch oven.
- Generously season the short ribs with salt and pepper. In the same Dutch oven, working in batches, brown the short ribs in the remaining bacon fat over high heat, then remove to a plate and set aside. Remove all but 1 tablespoon of fat from the Dutch oven.
- To the Dutch oven with the reserved fat, add the carrots and shallots. Cook over medium-high heat until lightly browned, 10 to 15 minutes. Add the tomato paste and cook until slightly darker, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, about 1 minute. Remove about half of the carrots and shallots, and reserve.
- To the Dutch oven, add the wine, beef broth, cognac, short ribs and bouquet garni. Season with salt and pepper and bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Cover, transfer to the oven and cook until the beef is very tender, 2 to 3 hours.
- Meanwhile, in a skillet over medium-high heat, melt 3 tablespoons of the butter. Add the mushrooms, season with salt and pepper and cook, stirring often, until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Set aside.
- Bring the Dutch oven from the oven to the stovetop. Remove the bouquet garni, carrots and shallots and discard. Bring the liquid to a simmer.
- Using a fork, in a small bowl, cream together the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter and flour, using your fingers if necessary to mix well. Stir the mixture into the stew. Simmer over medium-low heat for 15 to 20 minutes. Taste and adjust the seasoning as necessary.
- Serve the ribs over creamy polenta along with the mushrooms and reserved carrots and shallots. Ladle some of the sauce over the top before serving.
- In a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, add the milk, then add the cornmeal gradually, whisking constantly. Add salt and pepper to taste, and bring to a boil, stirring occasionally.
- Turn the heat to low, and cook, stirring often, until the polenta is very thick, but is still creamy, 30 to 35 minutes. If the polenta becomes too thick, whisk in additional milk or water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until it is the desired consistency (it should be about the consistency of porridge).
- Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the butter using a wooden spoon. Taste for seasoning and serve immediately.

SHORT RIBS BRAISED WITH MUSHROOMS AND TOMATOES
The short ribs are slowly braised with easy-to-find dried porcini mushrooms (for real, ask someone at the fancy grocery store and they'll find them for you!) until they turn into a triumph of fork-tender goodness. I love these short ribs over mashed potatoes, but the rich tomato and mushroom gravy is fantastic over soft polenta as well. I really hope you give this cool weather wonder a try.

REALLY GREAT BEEF SHORT RIBS
Rub the ribs with dry seasonings to coat well and leave in the fridge for at least a minimum of 8 hours, 24 hours is even better --- If you want to save time, you can just omit browning the ribs, and add in the onions and garlic right into the sauce, I prefer to brown first --- this is very good!

Steps:
- Pat the short ribs with paper towels to remove any excess moisture, then season generously with 2 teaspoons kosher salt and 2 teaspoons pepper.
- Add the olive oil to a Dutch oven or large, heavy-bottomed pot and heat over high heat until shimmering. Add half the short ribs and sear on each side until deep brown, about 7 minutes total. Remove from the pan and set aside. Repeat with the remaining short ribs.
- Discard all but 1 tablespoon of rendered fat from the pot. Add the onion, carrot, garlic, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 1 teaspoon of pepper. Sauté over medium heat until the vegetables are softened, about 5 minutes.
- Add the tomato paste and sauté for a few more minutes, until darkened and thickened.
- Pour in the wine and use a wooden spoon to scrape any browned bits, or fond, from the bottom and sides of the pan. Reduce the liquid by half, about 15 minutes.

Add up to 1 cup (240 ml) of water as needed if the sauce gets too thick. Skim excess fat off the top as needed. The short ribs are done when the meat pulls apart easily.
- Discard any bones that the meat has fallen off of, as well as the bay leaves and thyme stems. Transfer the short ribs to a cutting board. Pull out any remaining bones and discard. Using two forks, shred the meat, then return to the pot.
- Add salt and pepper to taste. Simmer for 15 minutes over low heat.

Tips:
- To ensure the best flavor, select high-quality beef short ribs that are well-marbled.
- Use a combination of spices and herbs to create a flavorful rub for the short ribs. Common ingredients include garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, chili powder, cumin, and oregano.
- Allow the short ribs to marinate in the rub for at least 2 hours, or overnight for even better flavor.
- Sear the short ribs in a hot skillet before braising them. This will help to develop a rich, caramelized crust.

- Braise the short ribs until they are fall-off-the-bone tender. This can take several hours, so be patient.
- Serve the short ribs with a variety of sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a simple green salad.
