Tips:

To achieve fall-apart tender beef, braise it low and slow. Recommended cooking time is 2 to 3 hours.
Sear the beef in a hot skillet before braising to develop a rich, caramelized flavor.
Use a variety of vegetables for the braising liquid, such as carrots, celery, and onions. These vegetables will add flavor and depth to the dish.
Choose a full-flavored red wine for braising. A dry red wine, such as Cabernet Sauvignon or Merlot, will add a rich, fruity flavor to the beef.
Serve the braised beef with a side of mashed potatoes, rice, or pasta. You can also add a side of vegetables or a fresh salad.
