Braised beef short ribs are the perfect companion for mashed potatoes or rice and due to the slow cooked nature of this recipe, they are fall off the bone delicious! I've included instructions for every type of cooking; whether it be stove-top, oven baked, Instant Pot or slow cooker, I've got you covered!
Braised Beef Short Ribs
Braised beef short ribs are basically beef short ribs that are roasted in a pot on the stove-top, typically in red wine or a similar liquid. For this recipe, I use a base of red wine and beef stock and brown the beef in bacon fat. This is a very traditional French way of making short ribs, made famous by the ever amazing Julia Child!
What is Braising?
Braising is the act of searing meat on a stove-top and then simmering it slowly in liquid in a covered pot until thoroughly cooked.
How to Make Braised Beef Short Ribs
This recipe was initially made using only the stove-top but there are many other ways to make braised beef short ribs.
Oven Baked
To cook in the oven, simply place them in the oven at 350 degrees for 4-5 hours as opposed to covering them and simmering them on the stove-top.
Instant Pot / Pressure Cooker
For the Instant Pot, press the saute button and follow the exact same steps right up until step #6 where you will close and cook on High Pressure for 45 minutes, then naturally release for 15 minutes. When using a pressure cooker, be sure to follow the manufacturers instructions when sealing and opening your pressure cooker.
Slow Cooker / Crock-Pot
For the slow cooker, follow all of the preparation steps and then transfer to the slow cooker and cook for approximately 5-6 hours on high, or 8-9 hours on low.
