Yield Serves 3-4

Number Of Ingredients 8

3-4 lbs. bone-in beef short ribs
1 bottle of good red wine
1 medium onion, peeled and quartered
handful of herbes de provence
kosher salt & pepper to taste
filtered water
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 tbsn. unsalted butter

Steps:

  • • Pat the ribs dry. • In a medium bowl, mix some salt and pepper into the flour to season, and toss the ribs to lightly coat. • Over medium-high heat, melt the butter in the bottom of a large oven-safe pot. • Sear the ribs in the hot butter, letting each side brown for about a minute, until all four sides are browned. • Pour the whole bottle of wine over the top of the browned ribs, and then add just enough filtered water to barely cover the ribs • Toss in the onion quarters and the herbes de provence. Season with kosher salt and pepper to taste. • Cover the pot tightly with a lid and cook at a simmer or lower for 3-4 hours, or place in a 350º oven, covered, for 3-4 hours.

Tips:

  • Braising is a great way to cook short ribs because it helps to tenderize the meat and develop its flavor.
  • Use a good quality red wine for the braising liquid. A full-bodied wine with a lot of flavor will help to enhance the flavor of the short ribs.
  • Don't be afraid to add a few extra vegetables to the braising liquid. Vegetables like carrots, celery, and onions will help to add flavor and depth to the dish.
  • Cook the short ribs until they are fall-off-the-bone tender. This will usually take at least 2 hours, but it may take longer depending on the size of the ribs.
  • Serve the short ribs with mashed potatoes, rice, or your favorite side dish.
