Ingredients

Marinade:

5 pounds (3-inch thick cut) bone-in beef short ribs
1 bunch each fresh thyme, rosemary, and sage leaves, chopped
2 tablespoons each kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 (750-ml) bottles Cabernet Sauvignon
Olive oil, for searing ribs
1 yellow onion, medium dice
2 carrots, peeled and medium dice
2 ribs celery, medium dice
3 cloves garlic
4 quarts veal stock
3 bay leaves
1-ounce dry porcini mushrooms

Directions

Season the ribs liberally with herbs and salt and pepper. Place in a large non-reactive bowl or deep container and cover with wine. Marinate for 12 hours in the refrigerator.

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.

Remove ribs from marinade, pour all the wine into a saucepot, and reduce by half. Meanwhile, heat a layer of olive oil in a large cast iron pan over medium-high heat. Sear ribs on all sides until well browned. Place browned ribs into a braising or deep roasting pan. Brown onion, carrots, celery, and garlic in the same cast iron pan, adding more oil as needed. Scatter browned vegetables over the ribs. Add the reduced wine, the stock, bay leaves, and mushrooms. Cover the pan with parchment paper and foil and place in the oven for 5 hours. Transfer from the oven and allow the ribs to rest for 1 hour before removing the bones. Skim any fat from the sauce. Remove vegetables from the pan and set aside. While ribs are resting, strain sauce into a saucepot and reduce for 1 hour. Pour hot sauce over ribs and vegetables and serve.

These Ribs are Awesome
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I am not a fan of short ribs but my husband loves them. I thought I would try this recipe as braising them for a long period... of time would render the fat down, which it did. They were excellent. I will always cook them this way now. Read more

FABULOUS!!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I had this at a friend's house and loved it so much, I had to get the recipe and review it. The flavor is absolutely... delicious-real comfort food. Great for a snowy weekend when you're stuck in the house. Certainly not inexpensive with the wine and fresh herbs-but not all comfort food has to be cheap. We had to substitute chicken stock for the veal and it worked out fine. Makes enough for a large family. Gotta try it. Read more

Tender, but not special
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

I wanted to try this recipe as I thought I would be presented with a meal that was out of the ordinary. However, though the... short ribs were very good, and were exceedingly tender, there was nothing special about this recipe, especially considering two bottles of wine and the fresh herbs, and at a cost of almost $15 per person. Actually, this tasted almost exactly like the simple pot roasts I have made for years, using only a cup of wine, some soy sauce, and a bit of vinegar. In summary, this recipe is good, flavorful, but not special in any way. 4 stars are for the taste.Read more
