English short ribs are cut lengthwise along the bone, so the meat sits on top. With a day or two of notice, any butcher should be able to cut them to order.

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.

Tips:

  • Choose the Right Short Ribs: Opt for short ribs that have a good amount of marbling, as this will help keep them moist and flavorful during the slow cooking process.
  • Brown the Short Ribs: Before slow cooking, brown the short ribs in a skillet over medium-high heat. This will help develop their flavor and create a delicious crust.
  • Use a Good Quality Red Wine: The red wine used in the braising liquid should be one that you would enjoy drinking on its own. A full-bodied red wine, such as a Cabernet Sauvignon or a Merlot, will add depth and richness to the dish.
  • Don't Skimp on the Vegetables: The vegetables in the braising liquid add flavor and nutrition to the dish. Use a variety of vegetables, such as carrots, celery, onions, and garlic, to create a flavorful base.
  • Cook the Short Ribs Low and Slow: The key to tender, fall-off-the-bone short ribs is to cook them low and slow. Cook the ribs on low heat for at least 8 hours, or until the meat is very tender.
  • Make the Gremolata: Gremolata is a flavorful condiment made from parsley, lemon zest, and garlic. It is the perfect finishing touch for the short ribs.

Conclusion:

Slow-cooked short ribs are a delicious and comforting dish that is perfect for a special occasion or a casual weeknight meal. By following these tips, you can create fall-off-the-bone tender short ribs that are packed with flavor. Serve the ribs with mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or your favorite side dish.
