Short Ribs are so easy to cook, and they can take a lot of flavor. With a lot of time they can be fork tender.
Heat 2 TBS of oil in a Dutch oven until shimmering hot. Salt and pepper all sides of your ribs, and place them in the hot oil. Only cook 4 or 5 at a time. You want them to brown, not steam. Brown the shirt ribs on 2 sides the remove them from the oil. Once you have browned all of your ribs, add 1 chopped onion, 2 chopped carrots, 3 chopped celery ribs, and 4 sliced garlic cloves to the Dutch oven. Cook for about 15 minutes or until tender. Once the vegetables are tender, add a bottle of Cabernet, 5 sprigs of thyme, and 3 cups of chicken stock. Bring this to a boil. Preheat the oven to 350. Add the short ribs back to the Dutch oven and cover. Cook the short ribs for 2 hours with the lid on. Uncover and braise them for another 45 minutes. Then Place the short ribs over some mashed potatoes, and some of that yummy sauce over the top. Enjoy!!
