Braised Beef Short Ribs is one of those recipes that you might not use often but when you do and they are cooked right they are delicious! Short Ribs is a cut of meat that needs cooked slow to make them tender and the bone adds tons of flavor to this dish.
After the short ribs are fully cooked you can make an amazing gravy with the liquid and of course serve it over my favorite mashed potato recipe. Seriously guys this meal will impress anybody and it really isn’t hard at all!

It appears in my pics that I might of been a little over enthusiastic with the flat leaf parsley…….but it really adds another layer of flavor to this rich dish. Now don’t get me wrong, if you don’t have any don’t let that stop you from making this!
