Tips:

  • For fall-off-the-bone short ribs, braise them low and slow. Aim for a cooking time of at least 2 hours, or until the meat is fork-tender.
  • Use a variety of vegetables in your braising liquid to add flavor and depth to the dish.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different types of wine. A full-bodied red wine, such as Chianti, is a classic choice, but you can also use a Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, or even a Pinot Noir.
  • Season the short ribs generously with salt and pepper before browning them. This will help to develop a rich, flavorful crust.
  • Serve the short ribs with mashed potatoes, polenta, or rice to soak up the delicious braising liquid.
