Red Wine Beef Braised Short Ribs

This recipe will leave you feeling like you are eating at one of your favourite fine dining restaurants. When cooking with beef short ribs, the best way is always slow and steady. Cooking the meat at a lower temperature for longer, cooks the meat gently, which gives you more juicy and tender meat.

Raw Short Ribs

The meat used in this recipe is our beef short ribs! At Halenda’s, we cut to ensure there is extra meat left so there is even more to fall off the bone when you cook them!

The Secret Sauce

These Red Wine Braised Short Ribs are cooked slowly in a wine sauce that is infused with garlic, rosemary, bay leaves, chicken broth, carrots, celery, onions and of course red wine until they fall apart right in front of you! We served our ribs alongside garlic mashed potatoes and string beans. You can also pair this with polenta, pasta or even risotto, whatever you are feeling that day. Either way, this recipe will not disappoint!

We decided to use a dutch oven to cook with, but this recipe will also be just as amazing in a slow cooker. The motto of this recipe is slow and steady wins the race.

When making the sauce keep in mind that your goal is to create a thick and creamy sauce, almost like a gravy. When dicing your carrots, celery and onion, we like to finely chop them, around 1 cm in diameter. This allows for the vegetables to be perfectly cooked and release all their favours. When simmering, try to reduce the wine sauce by at least half to ensure it gets to the consistency you want.

There is no need to allow the short ribs to rest, serve immediately and enjoy this delicious comforting meal.

In the case that you have leftovers, which is very unlikely, you can store both the sauce and the short ribs in an air-tight container for up to 5 days.

Beef Braised Short Ribs

This meal is all about comfort, and getting that fall-off-the-bone meat you dream about. We love our wine, so this was the perfect dish to cook our Halenda's Beef Short Ribs in a red wine sauce that really elevates the dish. We only used two cups of wine in the recipe, so feel free to drink the rest!
The key to pulling off this recipe is cooking your braised beef short ribs on low heat and for at least 3.5 hours or until the meat falls apart with just a fork.
