The ribs should be seasoned and chilled overnight before cooking. WHAT TO DRINK: Stick with Cabernet and try a selection. Two we love are the rich, ripe 2005 Blend No. 815 from Joel Gott(Sonoma, $17) and the 2004 Cabernet from Columbia Winery with black cherry flavors and a velvety texture(Washington, $15).

Yield Makes 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

8 to 9 pounds meaty beef short ribs
2 tablespoons chopped fresh rosemary
2 tablespoons chopped fresh thyme
1 tablespoon coarse kosher salt
1 tablespoon freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup (about) vegetable oil
2 750-ml bottles Cabernet Sauvignon
2 tablespoons (1/4 stick) butter, room temperature
2 teaspoons all purpose flour
Gorgonzola Polenta
Mixed-Herb Gremolata

Steps:

  • Planning tip:
  • With its various elements, this dish lends itself well to team cooking. Seasoning the meat ahead, making the gremolata, browning the ribs, and deglazing the pan are separate steps that allow everyone to take turns. But if you'd prefer to work ahead, the short ribs will taste just as good a day later. Either way, you're golden.
  • Arrange ribs in single layer in 15x10x2-inch glass baking dish. Mix rosemary, thyme, salt, and pepper in small bowl; sprinkle all over ribs. Cover and refrigerate overnight. Let stand at room temperature 1 hour before continuing.
  • Preheat oven to 375°F. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in heavy wide ovenproof pot over medium-high heat. Working in batches, add ribs to pot and cook until browned on all sides, about 8 minutes per batch, adding more oil to pot by tablespoonfuls as needed. Transfer ribs to large bowl. Pour off drippings from pot; discard. Add wine to pot and bring to simmer, scraping up any browned bits. Return ribs and any accumulated juices to pot; bring to boil. Cover; transfer to oven and braise until meat is very tender and almost falling off bones, about 2 hours. DO AHEAD: Can be made 1 day ahead. Chill uncovered until cold, then cover and keep chilled.
  • Bring to simmer before continuing. Using slotted spoon, transfer ribs to large bowl; cover tightly to keep warm. Skim any fat from top of braising liquid. Boil liquid until reduced to 2 generous cups, about 20 minutes. Mix 2 tablespoons butter and 2 tablespoons flour with fork in small bowl until well blended. Whisk butter mixture into reduced braising liquid. Whisk over medium-high heat until sauce thickens very slightly, about 2 minutes.
  • Divide Gorgonzola Polenta among plates. Top with ribs and sauce. Sprinkle with Mixed-Herb Gremolata and serve.

CABERNET-BRAISED SHORT RIBS WITH GORGONZOLA POLENTA AND MIXED-HE



Cabernet-Braised Short Ribs With Gorgonzola Polenta and Mixed-He image

From Bon Appetit 10/07......... I followed the recipe exactly and the combination of the short ribs, creamy gorgonzola polenta and gremolata made a fabulous meal. Made the ribs the day before to make it easier to skim the fat. So much of the meal can be made ahead of time that it really makes for an easy prep the day of a dinner party. For what to drink-Bon Appetit suggests: Stick with Cabernet and try a selection. Two we love are the rich, ripe 2005 Blend No. 815 from Joel Gott (Sonoma, $17) and the 2004 Cabernet from Columbia Winery with black cherry flavors and a velvety texture (Washington, $15).

Cabernet-braised Short Ribs Recipe by Tasty image

Here's what you need: large beef short ribs, celery, medium carrots, medium leek, garlic, bay leaf, fresh thyme, whole black pepper, all-purpose flour, salt, pepper, cabernet sauvignon, olive oil, tomato paste, unsalted beef broth, mashed potato, italian parsley

Provided by Jody Duits

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!
