Oven Braised Short Ribs

I don’t really remember eating short ribs growing up. Is it something that you grew up with? We certainly had ribs, mostly pork ribs, but not oven braised short ribs and now I feel like my childhood must have been a complete waste.
Alright, not a waste, I mean my parents totally killed it for us kids. We had campouts and nights under the stars, lazy game nights and watching movies together and on and on. I totally had a good childhood, I just think it would have been perfection if I’d had these oven braised short ribs.

I bet you I’ll get a call from my mom telling me that she totally used to make oven braised short ribs as soon as she reads this post. That happens a lot with us,  “Hey Mom, why didn’t we ever do such and such when I was little, that would have been so fun!”

Oven Braised Short Ribs

Oven braised short ribs sounds a lot more fancy than it really is, so take a deep breath and let’s do this together. It’s basically ribs that are cooked slow with liquid in a pot in the oven until they totally and completely fall off the bone.

Don’t you love when that happens? When meat is so blasted tender the bone is completely clean when you try to lift the meat out. Man, that’s the good stuff right there!!! It’s so, so good!

These oven braised short ribs have the most amazing flavor and gravy with them. It’s a combination of all the good stuff like carrots, onions, garlic and celery that caramelizes and melts down to give the gravy that perfect base. But then there’s the burst of flavor from the Balsamic vinegar.
