RED WINE-BRAISED BEEF SHORT RIBS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F.
• Season the short ribs generously with the flour, salt and pepper. Heat a large Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot over high heat and add the oil. Add the short ribs in batches and brown on all sides, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer the ribs to a plate.
• Meanwhile, add the carrots, celery and onion to a food processor and pulse until the vegetables are almost a puree, about 30 seconds.
• Reduce the heat under the pot to medium high, add the vegetable puree and saute, stirring often, until the veggies are softened, about 5 minutes. Add the tomato paste, Italian seasoning and a pinch of flour. Cook, stirring constantly, until the tomato paste darkens slightly, about 3 minutes.

BRAISED SHORT RIBS OF BEEF WITH RED WINE, APRICOTS, AND BLACK OLIVES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
• Season the ribs with salt and pepper. Dust with the flour. Heat the oil in a large braising pan or ovenproof casserole over medium-high heat. Add the bacon and cook until most of the fat is rendered, then remove and set aside.
• Add as many ribs as can fit in a single layer to the pan. You will need to cook them in batches. Sear the ribs on both sides until well browned, then remove from the pan and set aside. Repeat with the remaining ribs. Discard all but 2 tablespoons of the fat from the pan.
• Lower the heat to medium, add the carrots and onions, season with salt and pepper, and saute until the vegetables begin to brown, about 10 minutes. Add the garlic and tomato and paste and cook for 4 more minutes, scraping the browned bits off of the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. Add the red wine and brandy and reduce by 1/2, about 6 minutes.
• Return the ribs and bacon to the pot. Add the remaining ingredients except the apricots and parsley and bring to a boil. The liquid should come 1/3 of the way up the ribs, if it does not, add some water. As soon as the liquid comes to a boil, turn off the heat an cover the ribs tightly with foil, pressing the foil down into the pan, then place a lid on the pan.
• Braise the ribs in the oven for 2 hours, turning them every 30 minutes so they cook evenly. Add water as necessary to keep the braising juice 1/3 of the way up the ribs.
• After 2 hours, add the apricots and cook for an additional 30 minutes. The meat should be almost falling off the bones (if it is not, keep cooking until it does). Transfer the short ribs to a large platter. Spoon the vegetables, olives, and apricots over them. Keep warm.
• Strain the braising juices into a clear glass container and siphon or skim off the fat. The braising juices may already be the consistency of a sauce. If not, return them to the pan and boil for a few minutes to thicken. If you prefer an absolutely smooth sauce, strain out any remaining pieces of vegetable. Taste, season with salt and pepper, and add the parsley. Pour the sauce over the ribs and serve immediately.

• Pour off all but 2 tablespoons of the hot oil from the skillet. Toss in the onions, green peppers, jalapeños, and bay leaves and cook, scraping in all those tasty brown bits clinging to the bottom of the pan. Season with a big pinch of salt and a dash of pepper, and cook til soft and light brown; then add the garlic and cook a minute more.
• Pour in the red wine and let it bubble for 1 minute while scraping the skillet again. Add the Mutha sauce, thyme, and water and simmer for a couple of minutes til blended.
• Douse the ribs with the sauce and cover the pan snugly with foil. Bake for 2 hours. Remove from the oven and uncover. Skim off the fat floating on the surface. Stir up the sauce and taste for seasonings. Give the ribs a flip, cover them up again, and pop them back in the oven for another half hour or so, til they're fork tender. Pull the ribs out of the oven, and fish out and discard the bay leaves. Reduce pan sauce if necessary. Serve each person 2 hot and steamy, well-sauced ribs sprinkled with parsley.
