Notes

  •  
  • Bone-In Short Ribs: This cut is referred to as English Cut Short Ribs, the meat is cut parallel to the bone. If you are unable to find short ribs you can substitute with chuck roast, or stew meat. If you want the addition of bones, adding oxtails is a great option. 
  • Oil: Use a good quality extra virgin olive oil or an avocado oil will work also. 
  • Worcestershire Sauce: Substitutes would include soy sauce, steak sauce, or even red wine. 
  • Ground Mustard: Substitute with 2 tsp of dijon mustard. 
  • Beef Broth: Use a low sodium option, you can use a beef broth, beef stock, or bone broth if you prefer. However, we will be cooking bones and the dish will create it's own bone broth. 
  • Storage: Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • Freezer: To freeze beef short ribs, allow them to cool completely to room temperature. Pour the ribs and sauce into a freezer safe container. Store in the freezer for up to 3 months. Thaw in the refrigerator overnight.
  • Slow Cooker: This short ribs recipe can easily be adapted to cook in the slow cooker. Follow the recipe up to step 5, after sautéing the vegetables add them to the slow cooker and create the sauce. Add the ribs into the broth in the slow cooker and cook on low for 6 hours or until beef is tender.
