Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 325°F.
- In a large skillet over high heat, heat oil. When oil is hot, sear the short ribs until well browned on all sides. Reduce flame to low and remove the short ribs to a plate.
- Pour out all but two tablespoons of fat remaining in the skillet. Add celery and cook over medium low heat for about 4 minutes.
- Add shallots and garlic. Continue cooking over low heat until all the vegetables are nicely translucent and the garlic is soft, about 4 minutes.
- Add all the remaining ingredients except for the beef stock and bring up to a boil.
- Place short ribs back into the pan along with any juices that have collected. Add enough beef broth to come three quarters of the way up the short ribs. Bring to a boil and then transfer to oven.
- Cook for 1 ½ – 2 hours, or until meat is about to fall off the bone. Serve over mashed potatoes or rice.
