Ingredients
  

  • 4.5-5 lbs Beef Short Ribs, bone-in and cut into about 2-inch pieces
  • 2 tablespoon Coarse Salt
  • 2 teaspoon Cracked Black Pepper
  • 2 tablespoon Canola Oil
  • 1 Yellow Onion, sliced and diced
  • 3 medium Carrots, sliced
  • 2 Celery Ribs, sliced
  • 1 bulb Garlic, peeled
  • 5 tablespoons Red Wine Vinegar
  • 3 cups Beef Stock
  • 3 tablespoon Tomato Paste
  • 6 Thyme Sprigs
  • 6-8 Parsley Stems with Leaves
  • 2 teaspoon Dried Oregano
  • 2 Bay Leaves

Instructions
 

  • Bring the beef to room temperature for about 30 minutes. Pat dry and season with salt and pepper.
  • Slice and dice the onion, carrots, and celery. Peel the garlic.
  • In a Dutch oven over medium-high heat, sear the ribs in batches until golden brown. Remove from pot.
  • In the same pot, sauté onion, carrots, and celery until softened. Add garlic and cook until fragrant.
  • Pour in the red wine vinegar and scrape up brown bits from the bottom.
  • Add the ribs back into the pot and let simmer in the wine for about 10 minutes.
  • Whisk together beef stock, tomato paste, and herbs. Stir into the pot. Cover and transfer to a preheated oven.
  • Cook at 325°F for 2.5-3 hours. Remove lid and cook for another 30-40 minutes.
  • Carefully remove the ribs and strain the sauce. Discard solids and return ribs to the sauce. Serve with mashed potatoes.

Notes

  • Use a dry red wine like Cabernet Sauvignon or Merlot for best results.
  • Allow the dish to rest for 10-15 minutes before serving.
