Welcome Home Beef has them on sale. What's the best way to prepare them? I really don't know anything about them except tht they look pretty heavenly on WHB's Twitter.

Gordon Ramsey's recipe for braised short ribs is pretty easy to follow and they taste darn good when I've done them.

I prefer using Sangiovese wine when I do it, but any red wine will work really. And It doesn't have to be an expensive one either.

If you can find “dino” ribs, I just run them on the smoker for about 4 or 5 hours. They’re hard to find most times of the year though.

If they’re just regular cutlets, I usually put them in some smoke for about two hours, let them get some color. Then take them off and put them in a braising liquid. Some combination of red wine, beef broth, tomato purée, carrots, onion, garlic, herbs, etc.

Put them back in the smoker for another 2 hours until they’re tender. You can also cook down the liquid into a sauce after they’re done. We usually serve them family style over goat cheese grits, but mashed potatoes would work too.

Here’s a couple videos:

I just don't know what to think, ribs cooked INSIDE using carrots and celery. That's a sacrilege that will awaken all the dead injuns

Short ribs braised in red wine is one of the finer meals a person can have. Try it.

I’ve never been able to find Dino ribs, but have smoked some large short ribs. It’s there a big difference in the finished product? I just didn’t care for beef ribs I’ve done. Good bark, super tender, good smoke and I think I cooked them good, I just didn’t care for them.

I've never had them at those bbq joints that specialize in them, but I also don't generally care for a smoked beef rib.

I braise short ribs in a dutch oven with a mix of red wine, diced tomatoes/tomato paste, beef broth, and a healthy dose of the plus-one trinity (onions, peppers, celery, and garlic). I serve this over rice, and people can't get enough of it. The meat is ultra tender and incredibly flavored. For short ribs, I would do this all day, every day rather than smoke them.

Sounds like you need to learn how to cook.
The best chefs in the world are men.

My daughter never learned to cook much of anything. But she lucked up and married a guy who worked as a caterer in his youth, and he does all the cooking for the family.

So you don’t cook at all? That just suck. Cooking every night is a stress relief for me
