Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 pounds bone-in short ribs
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 large yellow onion
  • 2 stalks celery
  • 1 medium carrot (optional)
  • 4 cloves garlic
  • 2 tablespoons tomato paste
  • 2 teaspoons fresh chopped thyme

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C).
  2. Season the short ribs generously with kosher salt and pepper. Dust lightly with flour.
  3. In a large Dutch oven, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Sear the short ribs on all sides until browned, about 3-4 minutes each side.
  4. Remove the ribs and sauté onions, celery, carrot, and garlic in the same pot for about 5 minutes until softened.
  5. Stir in tomato paste and thyme; deglaze with apple cider, scraping any bits from the bottom.
  6. Return short ribs to the pot along with maple syrup and stock. Bring to a simmer.
  7. Cover tightly and transfer to the oven; braise for about 3 hours until fork-tender.
  8. Let rest briefly before serving; spoon sauce over the ribs.
