Steps
- 1Season short ribs generously with salt and black pepper; heat olive oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat and sear ribs on all sides until deeply browned, then remove and set aside.
- 2Add chopped onions, carrots, and celery to the pot, cooking until softened, then stir in minced garlic and tomato paste, cooking for 2 minutes.
- 3Deglaze the pot with red wine, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom, and let it reduce by half.
- 4Pour in beef broth, then add fresh rosemary, thyme, and bay leaves; return the seared short ribs to the pot.
- 5Bring the liquid to a simmer, then cover the Dutch oven and transfer to a preheated oven at 325°F (160°C).
- 6Braise for 2.5-3 hours, or until the short ribs are incredibly tender and easily pull away from the bone.
- 7Carefully remove the ribs, skim excess fat from the sauce, and serve the ribs with the rich braising liquid.
