Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 English cut beef short ribs, trimmed (roughly 8 ounces each)
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided
1 bottle full bodied red wine, such as Cabernet
4 cups low-sodium vegetable stock
4 cloves garlic, peeled and smashed

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
  • Pat ribs dry with paper towels and season with salt and pepper on all sides.
  • Heat 2 tablespoons of butter in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the ribs and brown on all sides. Transfer the ribs to a plate, then add the garlic and stir until softened but not brown, about 1 minute. Carefully pour in the wine, bring to a boil and cook until reduced to about 1 cup. Add the ribs and any juices they have released back to the pot along with the stock. Reduce the heat and bring to a simmer, then cover the pot and transfer it to the oven, to braise, until the meat easily falls off the bone, about 3 hours.
  • Transfer the ribs to a plate and tent with foil to keep warm. Strain the braising liquid through a fine mesh sieve into a saucepan set over medium-high heat. Simmer the liquid, skimming fat as necessary, until thickened, about 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and whisk in the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter. Taste for seasoning and adjust, if necessary.

GARLIC BRAISED SHORT RIBS WITH RED WINE



Garlic Braised Short Ribs With Red Wine image

If you weren't already sure about how easy and delicious braised short ribs can be, consider this classic and straightforward recipe an excellent gateway. The ultimate hands-off, do-ahead dinner, these are done on the stovetop in a large Dutch oven but can easily be adapted to a slow cooker if that's your thing. When purchasing the ribs, ask for the thickest, meatiest ones available as they tend to shrink quite a bit once braised.

Categories     meat, soups and stews, main course

Time 4h30m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 tablespoons vegetable oil
5 pounds bone-in short ribs, at least 1 1/2 inches thick
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
2 large heads garlic, halved crosswise
1 medium onion (about 10 ounces), chopped
4 ribs celery (about 8 ounces, chopped
2 medium carrots (about 6 ounces), chopped
3 tablespoons tomato paste
2 cups dry red wine (about half a bottle)
2 cups beef stock or bone broth (use beef bouillon dissolved in water if unavailable; chicken stock will work in a pinch), plus more as needed
4 sprigs thyme
1 cup parsley, coarsely chopped
1/2 cup finely chopped chives
1 tablespoon finely grated lemon zest

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 275 degrees. Heat oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Season short ribs on all sides with salt and pepper. Working in batches, sear short ribs on all sides until deeply and evenly browned, 6 to 8 minutes per batch. Transfer browned short ribs to a large plate and continue with remaining ribs.
  • Pour off all but 2 tablespoons of remaining fat, leaving the good browned bits behind. Reduce heat to medium, and add garlic, cut side down and cook, undisturbed, until golden brown, about 1 to 2 minutes. Add onion, celery and carrots and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat and continue to cook until vegetables are softened but not yet browned, about 5 to 10 minutes. Add tomato paste and stir to coat. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until tomato paste has started to caramelize a bit on the bottom and up the edges of the pot, about 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Add red wine and, using a wooden spoon, scrape up any browned or caramelized bits. Let this simmer 2 to 3 minutes, just to take the edge off and reduce a bit. Stir in beef stock along with thyme. Using tongs, return short ribs to the pot, along with any juices that have accumulated, nestling them in there so that they are submerged (if they are just barely covered, nestle them bone side up so that all the meat is submerged, adding more beef stock or water as necessary to cover). Bring to a simmer, then cover and transfer to oven.
  • Cook, undisturbed, until short ribs are meltingly tender and falling off the bone (you should be able to shred the meat with a fork), 3½ to 4 hours.
  • Using tongs, remove the ribs from the pot, taking care (for presentation purposes, really) not to let the bone slip out and transfer them to a large plate. (While you could serve the short ribs right out of this pot, the vegetables have all given up their flavor and texture and aren't worth much now, so feel free to strain the sauce for easier eating.) Scatter parsley, chives and lemon zest over the top of the short ribs. Separate the fat from the sauce, season with salt and pepper and serve alongside.

DELICIOUS BRAISED SHORT RIBS WITH RED WINE GRAVY AND VEGETABLES



Delicious Braised Short Ribs With Red Wine Gravy and Vegetables image

Since I make this without really measuring, I cannot really list the exact amounts that I use, the amounts stated are as close as it gets to what I use when I make this, as long as you do use a minimum of 2 cups red wine all other ingredients really don't have to be exact. I also use this to make shanks and pot roast. Since me family loves spicy, I always add in red pepper flakes, but that is optional. I serve this with hot cooked pasta. If you are making a pot roast with this recipe you will have to adjust the cooking time, coat the roast in seasoned flour and brown on all sides, then continue with the recipe as stated. The short ribs are cooked on top of the stove, but you also can cook it in the oven if desired. Add in some small fresh button mushrooms too!

BRAISED SHORT RIBS WITH A RED WINE REDUCTION



Braised Short Ribs With a Red Wine Reduction image

We found this recipe in a magazine when we stayed in St. Marteen. It is from the executive chef of a restaurant named Tempation (excellent!).

Provided by Chef Art

Categories     Meat

Time 3h15m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 sprigs fresh thyme
2 sprigs fresh rosemary
6 beef short ribs (boneless)
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup rough chopped onion
1/2 cup chopped carrot
1/2 cup chopped celery
2 cups red wine
2 teaspoons tomato paste
6 -8 cups beef broth, plus more if needed
4 teaspoons honey, plus more to taste
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
2 tablespoons flour
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 300.
  • Season short ribs with salt and pepper.
  • Place a large stock pot over HIGH heat. When hot, add the olive oil.
  • Sear the short ribs on all sides until dark brown (about 2 minutes per side).
  • Once brown, remove and place in a braising pan or dutch oven.
  • Discard the oil, add fresh oil, and then saute all vegetables until brown. Add tomato paste and red wine, scraping up all bits of the pan.
  • Pour the vegetable mixture over the short ribs. Add rosemary and thyme. Add beef broth until ribs are completely submerged.
  • Cover with a tight fitting lid or aluminum foil and place in the preheated oven. Braising time is between 3-4 hours.
  • Once the short ribs are tender, remove from the liquid and set them aside on a plate (cover with foil).
  • Strain the braising liquid and allow to sit and cool for 30 minutes to allow the fat to rise to the top.
  • Skim the fat off the top using a ladle and discard.
  • Place the remaining liquid in a sauce pan, add honey and balsamic vinegar, and reduce by half over MEDIUM-HIGH heat. To thicken, mix flour and cold water to create a slurry, then slowly whisk into sauce until desired consistency is reached.
  • If necessary, reheat the short ribs in the sauce in the oven until hot. Serve.

Tips:

  • Sear the short ribs: Searing the short ribs before braising them adds a delicious depth of flavor and helps to caramelize the outside of the meat, creating a beautiful crust. To properly sear the short ribs, heat a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add some cooking oil and brown the short ribs on all sides, about 2-3 minutes per side.
  • Use a good quality red wine: The red wine used in this recipe should be a robust and flavorful one, as it will contribute significantly to the taste of the gravy. Look for a dry red wine with good acidity, such as a Cabernet Franc or Merlot.
  • Simmer the short ribs: After searing the short ribs, they are braised in a flavorful liquid, typically made from red wine, beef broth, and vegetables. Simmer the short ribs for at least 2-3 hours, or until the meat is fall-off-the-bone tender.
  • Thicken the gravy: Once the short ribs are cooked, the braising liquid can be thickened to make a rich and flavorful gravy. This can be done by adding a slurry of cornstarch and water, or by reducing the liquid on the stovetop until it reaches the desired consistency.
  • Serve the short ribs: Braised short ribs are typically served over mashed potatoes, rice, or egg noodles. They can also be served with a side of roasted vegetables or a simple salad.

Conclusion:

Braised short ribs are a classic comfort food that is perfect for a special occasion or a hearty weeknight meal. With a little time and effort, you can create a delicious and memorable dish that your family and friends will love. So, gather your ingredients, preheat your oven, and get ready to enjoy this mouthwatering recipe for braised short ribs with red wine gravy.
