Ranch Recipe
Braised Short Ribs
Ingredients
- 3 lbs Wagyu Cheek
- 2 tbsp beef tallow
- 1 onion, diced
- 2 carrots, diced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tbsp tomato paste
- 2 cups beef broth
- 1 cup red wine or more broth
- 3 sprigs fresh thyme
- Coarse salt and cracked black pepper
Method
- Heat the oven to 300 degrees. Season the ribs hard on all sides.
- Sear them in the tallow in a dutch oven until every side is deep brown, about 10 minutes total.
- Set them aside and cook the onion, carrot and garlic until soft.
- Stir in the tomato paste, cook it a minute, then pour in the wine and scrape the bottom clean.
- Ribs back in, add the broth and thyme. Liquid should come about two thirds up the ribs.
- Lid on, into the oven for 3 hours.
- They are done when the meat pulls back from the bone and gives with no effort.
Ranch tip: Make them a day ahead if you can. Chill overnight, lift the hard fat off the top, and reheat. They are better the second day.
