Categories     Dinner

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

6 large beef short ribs, trimmed of excess fat
2 stalks celery, trimmed and cut into 1-inch (2 cm) pieces
2 medium carrots, peeled, trimmed, and cut into 1-inch (2 cm) pieces
1 medium leek, white and light-green parts only, split lengthwise, thoroughly rinsed, and coarsely chopped
6 cloves garlic, peeled
1 bay leaf
4 sprigs fresh thyme
whole black pepper, to taste
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
salt, to taste
pepper, to taste
1 bottle cabernet sauvignon
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons tomato paste
2 qt unsalted beef broth, or chicken broth
mashed potato
italian parsley, chopped

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, add the short ribs, all vegetables, herbs and black pepper to taste for the marinade. Add the wine to cover.
  • Marinate at least 6 hours in the fridge.
  • Remove the meat from the marinade and pat dry with a towel or paper towel.
  • Strain the veggies from the wine. Reserve both the wine and veggies for later.
  • Season the meat with a generous amount of salt and pepper. Coat each side with flour and set aside.
  • In a large ovenproof pot, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat on the stovetop.
  • Preheat the oven to 350F˚(180C˚).
  • When the oil begins smoking, carefully slip ribs into the pot and sear until well-browned, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Transfer ribs to plate.
  • In the same pot, sauté the veggies from the marinade until lightly caramelized and browned, 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Add the wine in the pot, stirring to deglaze. Add tomato paste and stir to dissolve. Bring the liquid to a boil so the alcohol from the wine evaporates.
  • Add beef broth and bring it back to a boil. Add the ribs back to your pot. Spoon the liquid over the ribs to coat them.
  • Cover the pot and transfer to the middle rack of your oven.
  • Bake until meat is tender enough to be pierced easily with fork, about 2½ hours, opening the oven every 30 minutes and carefully skimming the fat from surface.
  • Serve with mashed potatoes, or another side of your choice, and garnish with chopped parsley on top.
  • Enjoy!

BRAISED BEEF SHORT RIBS

Provided by Robert Irvine : Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 3h45m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cup grapeseed oil
4 pounds beef short ribs (1-inch thick, 3 bone racks)
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
12 cups beef stock
2 cups mirepoix, small dice carrots, celery and onions
1 cup tomato paste
1/2 cup merlot or other red wine
1 tablespoon minced garlic
3 tablespoons fresh parsley and thyme leaves, minced
3 pounds peeled potatoes, medium dice
8 ounces unsalted butter
1 tablespoon salt
1 teaspoon white pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Heat a roasting pan over high heat with the oil. Sprinkle the ribs with salt and pepper. Add the ribs to the pan, then reduce the heat to medium. Sear on both the top and bottom of the meat, 2 to 3 minutes per side, reserving the pan drippings. After searing the ribs, add the stock, mirepoix, tomato paste, merlot, garlic and the reserved pan drippings to the pan. Tightly cover and cook in the oven for 2 1/2 to 3 hours. Remove the pan from the oven and check the ribs, which should be fork tender. If need be, continue cooking to achieve desired tenderness. Next remove the ribs and reserve the liquid to create sauce.
  • Pour the reserved cooking liquid through a strainer, then discard the remaining vegetables. In a saucepan, blend the herbs and liquid over medium-high heat. Reduce the liquid by three-quarters, yielding 3 cups of sauce. Pass the reduced sauce through a strainer, then set aside and keep warm.
  • For the potatoes: In a large pot, bring 1 gallon of water to a boil. Add the potatoes and cook until softened, 15 to 18 minutes, then drain. Pass the potatoes and butter through a food mill or ricer into a bowl. Next add the salt and pepper, and then blend with a whisk. Taste and add additional salt and pepper if needed.
  • To serve, place the mashed potatoes in the center of the plate, top with a short rib, and finish with the warm sauce. Repeat for the remaining short ribs.

1 1/4 teaspoons coarse salt, divided

Tips:

  • To enhance the flavor of the short ribs, sear them in a hot pan before braising. This will create a caramelized crust that adds depth of flavor to the meat.
  • Don't overcrowd the pot when braising the short ribs. Give them enough space so that they can brown evenly and cook through.
  • Use a good quality red wine for braising. A full-bodied wine like Cabernet Sauvignon or Merlot will add rich flavor to the sauce.
  • Add plenty of vegetables to the braising liquid. This will help to create a flavorful sauce and also add nutrients to the dish.
  • Be patient when braising the short ribs. The longer they cook, the more tender they will become.
  • Serve the short ribs with mashed potatoes, rice, or pasta. You can also add a side of roasted vegetables or a salad.

Conclusion:

Braised Cabernet Beef Short Ribs is a delicious and hearty dish that is perfect for a special occasion or a weeknight meal. With just a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a meal that your family and friends will love.
