The tradition of Italian cooking is that of the matriarch. This is the cooking of grandma. She didn’t waste time thinking too much about the celery. She got the best celery she could and then she dealt with it. — Mario Batali

Don Wittschiebe's Braised Beef Short Rib

Ingredients

  • 5 Beef Short Ribs
  • 1 cup G-Free All Purpose Flour Blend or Cornstarch
Marinade:
  • 1 Large Onion, chopped
  • 3 cloves Garlic, chopped
  • 3 sprigs Rosemary, bruised
  • 2 Bay Leaves
  • 2 cups Cabernet Sauvignon (we recommend Moody Press Cellars)
  • 2 cups G-Free Beef Broth
  • Salt and Black Pepper

Sauce:
  • 1 medium Onion, minced
  • 2 stocks Celery, small dice
  • 1 medium Carrot, small dice
  • 5 Mushroom Caps, small dice

Directions

Dust the ribs in the flour a sear in a VERY hot pan with a little oil.  Brown all sides of the meat and set aside in a shallow cooking pan.

Marinade:
Combine all these ingredients and pour over the meat in the shallow cooking pan so the marinade covers the meat.  Cover and put in a 350 degree oven for approx 3 hours or until tender with a fork.  Remove from the oven and strain off all the liquid into a sauce pot removing the veggies and herbs.  Bring the liquid to a boil and reduce by half.

Sauce:
Saute the veggies in butter over medium heat for approx five minutes.  Combine the veggies with the reduced cooking liquid.  Adjust the seasoning with S&P.
Serve with whipped potatoes.  Place the meat on top of the potatoes and finish with the reduction sauce.
