Main Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon garlic sauce (optional) Optional for added flavor
  • 2 cups chicken broth Can substitute with beef broth for deeper flavor
  • to taste salt Generous amount for seasoning

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Season the short ribs generously with salt on all sides. Allow them to sit for at least 30 minutes.
  • Preheat your oven to 325 degrees F.

Cooking

  • In a large Dutch oven, add your chosen cooking fat, such as butter or tallow, and heat over medium-high until hot.
  • Sear the short ribs in batches, browning each side for about 1-2 minutes.
  • Return all seared short ribs back to the Dutch oven, and if using, add the garlic sauce.
  • Pour in the chicken broth and bring everything to a boil.
  • Remove from heat and place in the preheated oven. Cook for 1.5 to 2 hours, until the meat is fork-tender.

Serving

  • Arrange the short ribs on a platter, drizzle with broth, and garnish with fresh herbs if desired.

Notes

For storage, allow ribs to cool completely before transferring to an airtight container. Refrigerate for up to 3 days or freeze for longer storage. Reheat with a splash of broth to preserve moisture.
