Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375˚F. You will need a frying pan, baking tray and a dutch oven, crock pot or a deep stovetop pot.
• In a mixing bowl, whisk together soy sauce, rice wine, hoisin sauce, brown sugar, sesame oil and stock/water until combined. Set aside.
• Season short ribs with salt and pepper and coat with flour.
• In a frying pan over medium-high heat, warm oil.
• Add garlic, ginger and star anise to frying pan and cook, stirring until fragrant, about 5 minutes. Remove and set aside.
• Working in batches, add the flour coated short ribs and sear in the frying pan until all sides are browned. Remove ribs to a plate and set aside.
• Place garlic, ginger and spices into a crock pot, dutch oven or stovetop pot.
• If using a crock pot: put all ingredients (spices, wet ingredients, seared beef) into crock pot, turn on low and cook for ~4-6 hours or turn to high and cook for ~3-4 hours until the sauce has reduced and beef is tender.
• If using a dutch oven, or deep stovetop pot: stir in combined mixture of soy sauce, rice wine, hoisin sauce, sesame oil, sugar and water/stock and bring to a boil.
• Return ribs to pan and bring to a simmer for about 10 minutes.
• If using a dutch oven: cover and transfer to oven to cook (reduce oven to 325˚F), turning occasionally, until meat pulls easily with your fork, about 2 hours. If using deep stovetop pot: turn element to low heat and simmer for ~2 hours, watching for tenderness of meat and liquid level in case short ribs need more or less time.
• Once tender, transfer the ribs to a platter and cover to keep warm.
• For the glaze, remove 1 cup of braising liquid and skim off as much fat as possible from the surface.
• Place the braising liquid in a sauce pan and cook on high heat until syrupy, about 15 minutes.
• Divide the ribs among individual plates with rice and other veggies, spoon the glaze over the ribs and garnish with green onion.

• Preheat the broiler and line a baking sheet with foil.
• Place each rib rack half, bone-side down, on the prepared baking sheet. Brush with the remaining cooking sauce. Broil until the glaze is bubbling and browned, 3 to 5 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a wide stockpot or Dutch oven, combine the short ribs, soy sauce, vinegar, garlic, lemongrass, ginger, brown sugar, water, green onion bottoms, crushed red pepper, and 2 tablespoons of the orange juice. Make sure that the stockpot is deep enough so that the short ribs are submerged in the liquid.
• Bake the short ribs, covered, for about 3 hours, or until the meat is tender and falling off the bones. Remove the short ribs from the braising liquid and cover to keep warm. Increase the oven temperature to 425 degrees F.
• Drain the fat off of the cooking liquid and discard. Place the remaining braising juices in a medium saucepan with 1/4 cup of the hoisin sauce and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce the liquid until only about 1 1/4 cups remain. Strain through a fine-meshed strainer, discarding the solids. Stir in the remaining 2 tablespoons of orange juice and the lemon juice.
• Return the short ribs and the reduced sauce to the stockpot or Dutch oven, coating the short ribs well with the sauce. Bake for 10 minutes, until the short ribs are heated through and slightly glazed. Serve hot over jasmine rice. Season each portion with the orange zest and garnish with the green onions if desired.
