Braised Beef Short Ribs With Red Wine Sauce Recipes

RED WINE-BRAISED BEEF SHORT RIBS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F.
• Season the short ribs generously with the flour, salt and pepper. Heat a large Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot over high heat and add the oil. Add the short ribs in batches and brown on all sides, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer the ribs to a plate.
• Meanwhile, add the carrots, celery and onion to a food processor and pulse until the vegetables are almost a puree, about 30 seconds.
• Reduce the heat under the pot to medium high, add the vegetable puree and saute, stirring often, until the veggies are softened, about 5 minutes. Add the tomato paste, Italian seasoning and a pinch of flour. Cook, stirring constantly, until the tomato paste darkens slightly, about 3 minutes. Slowly pour in the wine while whisking; whisk until smooth and combined. Add the sugar to the wine. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer and cook until the wine is reduced by half, 10 to 15 minutes.
• Stir in the broth, garlic and bay leaves, bring to a boil, turn off the heat and add the ribs back to the pot. Cover, transfer to the oven and cook until the ribs are tender, about 3 hours. Serve over sweet potato polenta.

RED WINE-BRAISED SHORT RIBS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Place the short ribs on a sheet pan, brush the tops with olive oil, and sprinkle with 1 1/2 tablespoons salt and 1 1/2 teaspoons pepper. Roast for 20 minutes and remove from the oven. Reduce the temperature to 325 degrees F.
• Meanwhile, heat 1/4 cup olive oil in a large (12-inch) Dutch oven, such as Le Creuset, over medium heat. Add the leeks, celery, onions, and carrots and cook over medium to medium-high heat for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the garlic and cook for one minute. Add the wine, bring to a boil, lower the heat, and simmer over medium heat for 10 minutes, until the liquid is reduced. Add the stock, tomatoes, Guinness, thyme, 1 tablespoon salt, and 1 1/2 teaspoons pepper.
• Place the ribs in the pot, along with the juices and seasonings from the sheet pan. Bring to a boil, cover, and cook in the oven for one hour. Uncover and cook for one more hour, until the meat is very tender.
• Remove the short ribs to a plate with a slotted spoon and discard the thyme bundle and any bones that have separated from the meat. Simmer the sauce on the stove for 20 minutes, until reduced. Skim some of the fat off the top and discard. Return the ribs to the pot, heat for 5 minutes, and taste for seasonings. Serve hot in shallow bowls, with a toasted baguette and extra sauce on the side.

RED WINE BRAISED SHORT RIBS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
• Pat ribs dry with paper towels and season with salt and pepper on all sides.
• Heat 2 tablespoons of butter in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the ribs and brown on all sides. Transfer the ribs to a plate, then add the garlic and stir until softened but not brown, about 1 minute. Carefully pour in the wine, bring to a boil and cook until reduced to about 1 cup. Add the ribs and any juices they have released back to the pot along with the stock. Reduce the heat and bring to a simmer, then cover the pot and transfer it to the oven, to braise, until the meat easily falls off the bone, about 3 hours.
• Transfer the ribs to a plate and tent with foil to keep warm. Strain the braising liquid through a fine mesh sieve into a saucepan set over medium-high heat. Simmer the liquid, skimming fat as necessary, until thickened, about 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and whisk in the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter. Taste for seasoning and adjust, if necessary. Transfer the ribs and sauce to a serving dish and serve.

GARLIC BRAISED SHORT RIBS WITH RED WINE

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.

BRAISED BEEF SHORT-RIBS WITH RED WINE SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Heat oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the onion, peppers, carrots, celery, and teaspoon of salt. Cook until the onion is softened and translucent.
• Add the tomato paste and garlic and cook 2 minutes. Place the short ribs into the pot and toss in the bay leaves and thyme. Pour the wine and broth over the meat. Cover and put into the oven, cook for 4 hours.
• Remove the pot from the oven onto a stovetop burner. Remove the meat and meat to a plate to cool. Skim the fat off the top of the liquid in the pot.
• Turn the burner to simmer, remove bay leaves, and allow the liquid to simmer uncovered while you separate the meat from the bones and fat. Add the meat back to the pot and continue to simmer until reduced slightly, about 10 minutes.
• Salt and pepper to taste and stir in the parsley.

BEEF SHORT RIBS BRAISED IN BBQ RED WINE SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325°. Mix up the flour and Creole Seasoning. Roll the ribs around in it til they're coated on all sides. Fire up a skillet over medium-high heat and add the oil. Brown the ribs til crusty on all sides, about 5 minutes per side. (If the ribs don't all fit in the pan at once without crowding, do them in batches.) Move the ribs to a baking pan just big enough to hold them close.
• Pour off all but 2 tablespoons of the hot oil from the skillet. Toss in the onions, green peppers, jalapeños, and bay leaves and cook, scraping in all those tasty brown bits clinging to the bottom of the pan. Season with a big pinch of salt and a dash of pepper, and cook til soft and light brown; then add the garlic and cook a minute more.
• Pour in the red wine and let it bubble for 1 minute while scraping the skillet again. Add the Mutha sauce, thyme, and water and simmer for a couple of minutes til blended.
• Douse the ribs with the sauce and cover the pan snugly with foil. Bake for 2 hours. Remove from the oven and uncover. Skim off the fat floating on the surface. Stir up the sauce and taste for seasonings. Give the ribs a flip, cover them up again, and pop them back in the oven for another half hour or so, til they're fork tender. Pull the ribs out of the oven, and fish out and discard the bay leaves. Reduce pan sauce if necessary. Serve each person 2 hot and steamy, well-sauced ribs sprinkled with parsley.
