Most hearty comfort foods take all day to cook, so we love that this boneless beef short ribs recipe takes just a couple of hours in the oven. It’s nourishing, filling and packed with bold flavor from ingredients like mustard, brown sugar, garlic and vinegar. While most recipes for beef short ribs require multiple hours braising on the stovetop, this simple and streamlined dish needs just two-plus hours in the oven to become totally fork-tender.<\/p>\n
The versatile entree is a great base for a wide range of family dinners: You can serve it with a heaping pile of mashed potatoes for a special occasion, or with a simple side salad for a hearty weeknight meal. Better yet, the leftovers can make tasty sandwiches for days to come.<\/p>\n
Preheat the oven to 325\u00b0F. In a small saucepan, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the onion, then cook and stir until tender, four to six minutes. Add the garlic, and cook and stir one minute longer. Stir in the ketchup, tomato paste, brown sugar, water, vinegar, mustard, salt and pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer, uncovered, until slightly thickened.<\/p>\n Cover and refrigerate 1\/2 cup of the sauce. Arrange the ribs in a 13×9-inch baking dish. Brush the remaining sauce over both sides of the ribs, and cover tightly with foil. Bake until tender, 2 hours to 2 hours and 30 minutes.<\/p>\n Preheat the broiler to high heat. Discard the juices from the dish and brush the reserved 1\/2 cup of sauce over the ribs. Broil, uncovered, until the sauce is bubbly and slightly caramelized, two to three minutes.<\/p>\n Once the short ribs have cooled to room temperature, any leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator. If you’ve baked these in a refrigerator-safe casserole dish, you can simply cover the leftovers with plastic wrap or foil and transfer to the refrigerator. Alternatively, you can place any leftover short ribs (and the remaining sauce) in a sturdy zip-top bag. Make sure to stand it up in the refrigerator to prevent the sauce from leaking. Boneless beef short ribs can stay in the refrigerator for three to four days.<\/p>\n You can reheat boneless beef short ribs in the oven or microwave. However, we think they taste best when reheated in the oven. To warm them up, simply transfer any leftovers to an oven-safe dish, cover them, and place in a preheated 250\u00b0 to 350\u00b0 oven for about 15 minutes, or until warmed through. Covering the pan will help the meat retain its juices and prevent any leftover sauce from drying out.<\/p>\n To reheat the meat in the microwave, simply transfer it to a microwave-safe dish or container. Microwave on medium-high for about a minute, then continue to heat in 30-second increments until the leftovers are warm enough.<\/p>\n Beef chuck is a great substitute for boneless short ribs. It has a similar texture to short ribs, and it can withstand long cooking times, which makes it ideal for soups, stews or braised recipes. While chuck roast is a great substitute for the beef ribs here, you might want to let it cook a little longer than the recipe outlines to ensure that the meat is fork-tender.<\/p>\n You can certainly make this recipe with bone-in short ribs, but remember that the cook time will change. Bone-in meats typically take longer to cook than the boneless versions. Follow the recipe as outlined here, but allow a bit more time for cooking.<\/p>\n We love how versatile this recipe is. Although it’s impressive enough to serve on a special occasion, it’s easy enough to serve on a weeknight too. Pair it with mashed potatoes<\/a>, baked mac and cheese<\/a>, roasted vegetables<\/a> or a pot of rice and beans<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" These boneless beef short ribs are a hearty and wholesome comfort food the whole family will love.
