BEST DAMN SHORT RIBS

Apr.posted by Paula 51 Comments

Braised Short Ribs are the Best Damn Short Ribs you’ll ever have! These short ribs are cooked in red wine until falling-off-the-bone tender!

Best Damn Short Ribs
Before I had beef short ribs, I didn’t understand all the hoopla surrounding them. Well, they really are that good. Simmered until tender with red wine, hello, what’s not to love!?
Short ribs are a popular cut of beef. Beef short ribs are larger and usually more tender and meatier than their pork counterpart, pork spare ribs

This recipe takes a long time (three hours is an eternity for someone with no patience!) to make but it’s not difficult. You don’t stand over the stove for 3 hours straight. You do a step, then read your trashy novel (or maybe that’s just me), do a step, then clean the kitchen, do a step, back to the novel.

It is SO worth the time…..

Ryder said, “Yum! This is good and I know good. I may not know when other things are good or bad, but I know when food is good or bad!” Yep, he’s right.

Wesley said, “These are the best damn short ribs.” Holy moly, my friends, that is like winning the Boston Marathon! Food critic #1 gave it a 10!!! The heavens parted and the angels sang Hal-le-lu-jahhhhhhh!!

First, dry ribs with a paper towel then salt and pepper. Brown on all sides in a Dutch oven.
After ribs are browned, remove to a pan. Add garlic and saute’ 1 minute. Next, add red wine and boil until reduced to about 1 cup.
Return the ribs back to the pan and add 4 cups of beef broth. Place lid on the dish and bake in 325-degree oven 2 1/2 to 3 hours. Take out of the oven and remove ribs to a plate. Skim excess fat off the top, then boil until reduced by about half. The longer you boil and reduce the more intense the remaining broth will be. Replace ribs and simmer a couple of minutes longer. Serve over rice, with cheesy grits or with buttered noodles.

    Thank you Paula. I’ve made this recipe before for a Christmas dinner but it has been some years. I searched through multiple recipes and I found this one to be the best and easiest. We shall see in about 3 hours…

    Outstanding! Great flavor and sauce, served on mashed potatoes. Better than what you can get in a restaurant!

    We don’t drink wine but I had fresh orange juice so I substituted that. Reduced the oj. Had leftover au jus gravy so I used that. Other than that I followed the recipe. Tried to get most of the fat off the juice once the meat was cooked and reduced the juice, used for gravy. This was so delicious with mashed potatoes. Thanks for the recipe.

    So I made these tonight and since it was only my son and myself I cut the recipe in half. Well this was a big mistake! I should have doubled the recipe instead of cutting it in half. We were fighting for the last piece. Being a good mom I let him win. But won’t make the same mistake twice. I will DOUBLE this recipe next time!!!

    I have made this recipe countless times and LOVE it! They beat restaurant short ribs any day! I am making these tonight and noticed that in the it recipe calls for 3 tablespoons of butter, however you only end up using two in the beginning to brown the ribs, and butter is never referenced again in the recipe. Am I missing something?

      Oh so sorry, it’s added in the sauce at the end. I’ll correct the recipe.

    Looks fantastic! Can country style pork ribs be cooked this way?
