These gluten free wine braised beef short ribs are so dang delicious! They fall off the bone and melt in your mouth! I love how they look like a fancy meal but they are so easy to make. This short rib recipe used the Dutch oven method of cooking but you can find the link below for my pressure cooker or Instant Pot method short ribs recipe if you need them done quickly!

We paired these fall off the bone short ribs with my lazy version of Rissoto. I cooked rice, mushrooms, butter, parmesan cheese, and a little heavy cream in my rice cooker so it was ready when the gluten free wine braised beef ribs were ready.

This recipe is the perfect example of comfort food. It has simple ingredients that make your whole house smell delicious while they are slow cooking in the oven. I love to make these for special occasions because they look so fancy and people think it took you a long time to make them. However, they only require a few steps and are super easy to make. Date nights at home are also the perfect occasion to make this great recipe!

This is one of my go-to recipes when my friend Aimee is coming over for dinner. She loves short ribs! But how can you blame her lol. I love short ribs and their saucy deliciousness. My favorite part about serving them when company comes over is how stunning they look on a big platter on top of risotto, cheesy polenta or mashed potatoes with some fresh parsley sprinkled over the top. Ok bye now I want to go and make these.

HERE’S WHAT YOU NEED TO MAKE THIS RECIPE:

A large Dutch oven

Tongs

A Large Spoon

One bottle of red wine- I always cook with one I would drink.

Olive Oil

Beef short ribs

A yellow onion

Celery

Carrots

Italian Seasoning

Fresh parsley

S & P

A Jar of Spicy tomato sauce

Beef stock or bone broth

Tomato paste

HERE ARE THE DIRECTIONS TO MAKE THESE TENDER BEEF SHORT RIBS:

Add a little olive oil to your pan.

If your ribs are damp, pat them dry with a paper towel.

Season them well with Salt and Pepper.

Then sear the short ribs on each side until browned over medium-high heat.

Work in batches if your pan is not big enough to sear them all at once.

Once you have browned ribs, transfer them to a plate and set them aside.

Add a little more olive oil to the pan.

Add in your chopped vegetable mixture and saute for about 5 minutes.

Pour in your wine.

Be sure to deglaze your pan or use your spoon to rub the browned bits off the bottom of the pan.

Add in your beef stock, tomato paste, and tomato sauce.

Stir to combine.

Add in SnP as well.

Add the beef short ribs back into the braising liquid and cover.

Move from the stovetop to a 350 degree oven and cook for about 21/2 hours.

Serve them with your favorite side dishes such as risotto, mashed potatoes, pasta, or spaghetti squash.

Enjoy!

A pan of seared short ribs ready to make into gluten free wine braised short ribs.

These short ribs are seared to perfection just waiting to go back into the delicious braising liquid. I am starting to drool.

HERE’S THE INGREDIENTS FOR THE RECIPE:

6 Beef Short Ribs

1/4 cup tomato paste

1 bottle red wine. I use either a cabernet or an Italian red wine.

1 yellow onion- chopped

4 large stalks of celery- chopped

4 carrots- chopped

3 garlic cloves- chopped

3 tsp Italian seasoning

Fresh parsley

S & P

1 jar spicy tomato sauce- I used organic and gluten free tomato paste.

6 cups beef broth

A Dutch oven full of braising liquid and tongs adding in the beef short ribs.

I love dunking these short ribs back into the braising liquid knowing what is about to happen in a few hours … now I am seriously drooling!

CAN I MAKE THIS RECIPE AHEAD OF TIME?

Yes, you can! if you are having a party on Friday night you most certainly can make these on Thursday and reheat them for Friday! I feel like the rich flavor is even better the next day! The braising liquid seems to flavor the beef even deeper.

WHAT DO I DO ABOUT THE HARD FAT ON TOP WHEN IT COOLS?

You can leave it if you like the dish to have more fat. If you do not like the excess fat, it will form a hard layer when cooled in the fridge. You can just scoop it off and throw it away using a spoon or a paper towel if you desire.

A pot of cooked wine braised beef short ribs garnished with fresh parsley.

Can you smell the delicious aroma of braised beef and wine? I am so drooling now! How about you?

CAN I MAKE THIS RECIPE IN A CROCK POT?

Yes, you can! This will work as a slow cooker recipe. You will just have to cook it on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 4-6 hours. You can also make it in an Instant Pot or Pressure Cooker and I have the link for my recipe here.

HOW MUCH MEAT DO I NEED PER PERSON?

I plan for 1 rib per adult person however, if I know I have some meat eaters coming for dinner I also add a few boneless short ribs to the pot. I prepare them the same way but it just adds in a little extra meat and you can present the dish with one rib showing per person still! Don’t forget to spoon that delicious braising liquid over the top of each serving…. everyone will be seriously drooling now.
