Equipment

  • knife
  • cutting board
  • baking dish
  • saute pan
  • oven

Ingredients
  

  • 3 lbs beef short ribs
  • 4 oz pancetta
  • 2 tablespoons sliced garlic
  • 1 cup pearl onions
  • 2 cups cremini mushrooms
  • 1 cup red wine
  • 2 cups beef broth
  • 1 cup tomato sauce
  • 2 dried bay leaves
  • 2 tablespoons chopped thyme
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper

Instructions
 

  • Preheat & Prep: Preheat your oven to 350°F. To prep pearl onions, boil them in water for 2–3 minutes, cool, and peel. Remove stems from cremini mushrooms and clean them with a damp paper towel.
  • Render Pancetta: Heat a pan over medium-high heat and cook diced pancetta until the fat renders and it becomes crispy. Set aside.
  • Sear the Short Ribs: In the same pan, sear the short ribs on all sides until golden brown, about 2–3 minutes per side. Transfer them to a large baking dish.
  • Saute Aromatics: Add sliced garlic, pearl onions, and mushrooms to the pan. Saute for 2–3 minutes, allowing their natural flavors to develop.
  • Build the Sauce: Stir in red wine, beef broth, tomato sauce, bay leaves, thyme, and salt.
  • Bake: Pour the sauce over the short ribs in the baking dish. Cover tightly with foil and bake for 30 minutes at 350°F. Then, lower the heat to 300°F and cook for 3 more hours, until the short ribs are fork-tender.
  • Optional Step: Skim off excess fat with a spatula for a leaner dish.
