Ingredients
 

Main Ingredients

  • 4 pounds beef short ribs bone-in
  • 1 tablespoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper freshly ground
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1 cup onion chopped
  • 2 cups carrots cut into large pieces
  • 1 cup celery sliced
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 cups red wine
  • 2 cups beef broth
  • 2 tablespoons tomato paste
  • 2 sprigs thyme fresh
  • 1 bay leaf bay leaf

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • Season the beef short ribs with salt and pepper.
  • Heat oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Brown ribs in batches, setting aside once they are evenly seared.
  • Reduce heat to medium, add onions, carrots, and celery, and cook until onions are soft.
  • Stir in garlic, and cook for another minute.
  • Pour in red wine, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot.
  • Add beef broth, tomato paste, thyme, and bay leaf. Return ribs to the pot, submerging them in the liquid.
  • Bring to a simmer, cover, and place in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for approximately 3 hours, or until meat is very tender.

Notes

This dish pairs well with mashed potatoes or a crusty bread to soak up the sauce.
