One of the exotic dish called “Braised short ribs” are one of those classic, cozy, and quintessential Fall-inspired dinners. Now I’ll be the first to tell you that short ribs can be on the pricier side when it comes to cuts of meat at your local butchers. It’s most certainly not like your typical pot/beef roast. 😋👌

Method of making the Braised Short Ribs👍😘

1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Season short ribs with salt and pepper. Heat oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Working in 2 batches, brown short ribs on all sides, about 8 minutes per batch. Transfer short ribs to a plate. Pour off all but 3 tablespoons drippings from pot.
2. Add onions, carrots, and celery to pot and cook over medium-high heat, stirring often, until onions are browned, about 5 minutes.
3. Add flour and tomato paste; cook, stirring constantly, until well combined and deep red, 2-3 minutes.
4. Stir in wine, then add short ribs with any accumulated juices. Bring to a boil; lower heat to medium and simmer until wine is reduced by half, about 25 minutes.
5. Add all herbs to pot along with garlic. Stir in stock. Bring to a boil, cover, and transfer to oven.
6. Cook until short ribs are tender, 2-2 1/2 hours. Transfer short ribs to a platter. Strain sauce from pot into a measuring cup.
7. Spoon fat from surface of sauce and discard; season sauce to taste with salt and pepper.
8. Serve in shallow bowls over mashed potatoes with sauce spooned over. Enjoy this fabulous dish with a exotic bread basket as well👍

Please Note

To test if the ribs are done, pull on a bone. It should slide out freely.❤️
