Ingredients
Scale
- 3 lbs. beef short ribs
- 1/4 c. olive oil
- 1 1/2 c. flour
- 1 c. red wine
- 2 tbsp. Worcestershire Sauce
- 2 tsp. liquid smoke
- 3 c. chicken broth
- 1 can tomato paste
- 3 beef bouillon cubes
- 6 garlic cloves, minced
- 2 bay leaves
- 1 large yellow onion, cut into chunks
- 5 large carrots, cut into chunks
- 1 tbsp. red crushed pepper flakes
- salt and pepper
- POTATOES
- 4 large Russet potatoes
- 1 1/2 c. white cheddar cheese, grated
- 1 1/2 c. half and half
- 4 tbsp. butter, softened
- salt and pepper
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 Degrees: Liberally season all the short ribs with salt and pepper. In a large skillet pan, drizzle with olive oil on medium high heat. Dredge the short ribs in the flour and sear on the meaty side for 2 minutes until slightly brown. Once finished, place the short ribs into a large oven roaster pan with the meaty party facing down and the boney side facing toward you. Repeat until all short ribs are complete.
- In a large bowl, pour in the chicken broth, red wine, Worcestershire sauce, tomato paste and liquid smoke and whisk all ingredients. Pour in the roasting Pan. If there isn’t enough liquid add more chicken stock until the short ribs are slightly covered with the liquid. Add the beef bouillon, garlic cloves, onions, red pepper flakes, and bay leaves; sprinkle with salt and pepper and place in oven with lid for 2 1/2 hours. Once you have reached 2 1/2 hours, add the carrots to the pot and cover again with lid for another 45 minutes. Once completely cooked remove from oven and allow to sit for 15 minutes before removing the bone. Cover with aluminum foil until ready to serve.
- For mashed potatoes: In a large pot fill with water and add the potatoes. Bring to a slight boil on medium high heat and allow to boil for 25 or 30 minutes until potatoes are fork tender. Drain water and return the potatoes to the pot. Use a potato masher and mash the potatoes, add the butter and half and half, stir until smooth and creamy. Now add the white cheddar cheese and stir into the potatoes so the cheese can melt. Serve the short ribs over the mashed potatoes.
