Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Trim excess fat from the beef short ribs and pat dry. Season generously with salt and pepper.

  5. Once done, remove ribs and simmer the braising liquid and onions in a skillet until thickened.
  6. Optional: Broil the ribs for 2-3 minutes to create caramelized edges.
