SLOW-BRAISED BEEF SHORT RIBS RECIPE (VIDEO)

Steps:

• Pat the short ribs dry with a paper towel, if needed, and season generously all over with sea salt and black pepper. Use your hands to work in the salt. Place the flour into a large bowl and coat each short rib all over with flour; tap off any excess.
• Preheat a large stainless-steel or cast iron frying pan over medium-high heat and add a drizzle of cooking oil. Once the pan is extra hot, add in 4 to 5 short ribs and brown them all over for 8 to 10 minutes, ensuring that all sides are well browned. Remove them onto a tray, clean the frying pan and then fry the second batch. Watch my video recipe to see how it's done!
• Next, preheat a braising pan over medium heat and add the butter. To the melted butter, add the mushrooms and onion and sauté them for 4 to 6 minutes, until tender. Next, add in the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute. Season the mixture with salt, pepper and fresh herbs. Add in the wine and tomato paste and whisk everything together. Cook this mixture for a few minutes before adding the beef broth.
• Bring the sauce up to a simmer over medium-high heat and then return the short ribs to the pan, placing the ribs with the meat side facing down. Allow the sauce to come up to a simmer again, then cover the braising pan with a tight-fitting lid and reduce the temperature to low.
• Braise the beef short ribs for 3 to 3 ½ or even 4 hours, until the meat is extra tender and falls of the bone naturally. If the braising sauce reduces too much, add an additional ½ cup to 1 cup beef broth, as needed. Once the ribs are done, remove the pan from the heat and gently place the short ribs to one side of the pan. Tilt the pan slightly and use a large spoon to skim off the fat that has risen to the surface into a measuring cup. Allow this fat to cool, then dispose of it in a waste container.
• When the short ribs have approximately 30 minutes of cooking time left, prepare my Creamy Butter Mashed Potatoes recipe.
• For serving, place 1 large or 2 small ribs onto each plate, over a bed of mashed potatoes. Pour extra sauce over each rib and garnish with fresh thyme leaves.
• Alternative cooking methods: a. Pressure Cooker: brown the short ribs first, then prepare the sauce in the pressure cooker and add the ribs. Cook on the 'High' Pressure setting for 60 to 70 minutes with Natural Release 15 minutes, or use the machine setting for 'short ribs'.b. Slow Cooker: prepare the recipe as written and place the sauce and ribs into the cooker. Cover and cook on the 'high' setting for 10 to 12 hours. Add an additional ½ cup to 1 cup beef broth halfway through, if needed.

• Heat a large heavy bottom skillet over medium high-heat. Add the ribs to the skillet and sprinkle with salt + pepper. Sear the ribs on all sides for about 1 minute per side. Remove the ribs from the skillet.
• Arrange the onions on the bottom of your crock-pot and sprinkle the brown sugar over them. Add the seared short ribs, garlic, mushrooms, apple cider and thyme.
• Cover the crock-pot and cook on low for 7-8 hours or on high for 5-6 hours. During the last 1-2 hours of cooking, add the apple slices, tossing to combine.
• Once the short ribs are done cooking and easily fall apart, skim off any fat from the top of the crock-pot. Lightly shred the ribs and remove and discard the bones. Keep the rib meat in the sauce, covered on low heat until ready to eat.
• About 40 minutes before you're ready to eat, make the potatoes. In a large pot of cold water, bring the potatoes and garlic to a boil. Salt the water and cook until the potatoes are tender, about 20 to 30 minutes.
• Drain the potatoes, return the potatoes to the pot and mash over low heat, or mash in the bowl of stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, adding the cream, cheddar cheese, and 2 teaspoons salt.
• In a skillet or small sauce pot, melt the butter over medium heat until just browned. The butter will melt, foam and froth, then begin to brown along the bottom. Whisk browned bits off of the bottom of the pan. Stir in the sage and let cook 30 seconds. Pour the browned butter into the warm mashed potatoes. Taste and season with salt and pepper if desired.
• Divide the mashed potatoes between plates and top with the rib meat. Enjoy!
