Ingredients
 
 

  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp salted butter
  • 5 pounds beef short ribs english cut, about 6-8 ribs
  • 1 tsp salt more to taste
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • 1 brown onion finely chopped
  • 4 garlic cloves minced
  • 3 carrots peeled and roughly chopped
  • 3 tbsp all-purpose flour
  • 1 ½ cups red wine dry
  • 2 ½ cups beef broth
  • 2 tbsp tomato paste
  • 4 thyme sprigs
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 1 tsp dried rosemary

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350℉/160℃.
  • Get your prep done before you start cooking. Season the short ribs on both sides with salt and pepper.
  • Peel and roughly chop the carrots. Finely chop the onion and mince the garlic.
  • Heat oil and butter in a large Dutch oven or an ovenproof heavy-bottomed pot over medium high. Add half of the short ribs and sear 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a clean plate, then repeat with the remaining ribs. Set aside.
  • Reduce heat to medium. Add garlic, onion and carrots. Cook for 3 minutes until soft and fragrant. Add flour and stir until incorporated.
  • Deglaze with red wine and simmer for 2 minutes while scraping up the brown bits from the bottom of your pot with a wooden spoon. Pour in beef broth, then stir in tomato paste. Add thyme sprigs, bay leaf and rosemary. Bring the sauce to a boil, taste and adjust salt.
  • Turn off the heat, then return the short ribs to the pot. Cover, place in the oven and cook for 3 hours. Enjoy!
