Red Wine Braised Short Ribs in Dutch Oven

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

Red Wine Braised Short Ribs is the best recipe for tender fall apart bone-in beef short ribs slow cooked with gravy in a Dutch Oven. This is a perfect comfort meal you can make at home for your friends and family!

Bone in short rib with mashed potatoes, topped with red wine gravy.

This is one of my most favorite recipes for bone-in beef short ribs, slowly braised in red wine sauce in a Dutch oven! While it takes some time to cook in the oven, the meat comes out perfectly tender and falls apart.

Similar to my Instant Pot Boneless Short Ribs and Instant Pot Lamb Shanks the meat is cooked in red wine sauce that brings the most aroma to the whole dish. The trick is to reduce the wine first, so it becomes more concentrated and brings a rich and deep flavor.

Bone in short rib with mashed potatoes, topped with red wine gravy.

How to make this recipe

To start, let’s preheat the oven to 350°F.

Rinse and pat dry the meat and generously season with salt and pepper.

Heat olive oil in 6 Qt Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Brown the meat in two batches for 5-6 minutes on each side, then transfer to a plate and set aside.

Add diced onions and cook for 8-10 minutes or until they are translucent and softened. Then add celery and carrots, and cook for 3-5 minutes more.

Add garlic and tomato paste and cook for a few more minutes.

Stir in the wine, bring to boil, lower the heat to medium and simmer until it reduces in half, about 15-20 minutes. (Photo 9-10).

NOTE: I like to use Cabernet Sauvignon to braise the meat, as it provides the best flavor. My favorite one is Decoy (NOT sponsored)

Add beef broth and stir.

Transfer the meat back to the pot, add bay leaves, thyme and oregano.

Cover with the lid and transfer to the oven.

Cook at 350°F for 2 ½-3 hours or until the meat is tender.

NOTE: You can start testing the meat after 2 hours of cooking. Simply pierce the meat with the fork to see if the meat is tender and fall of the bones.

How to make Red Wine Sauce

Transfer the meat to the plate and cover with foil.

Strain the sauce and discard the vegetables.

Pour the liquid back to the pot and simmer until it thickens.

NOTE: I usually just strain the sauce and discard the vegetables. If you want to keep the veggies, there is no need to strain the sauce. Just bring it to boil on the stove and reduce the liquid.

NOTE: If the sauce it too liquid, add 1 tablespoon cornstarch mixed with 2 tablespoons water, and stir. Cook for a couple of more minutes.

Serve the meat with red wine sauce on top of homemade mashed potatoes and some vegetables on the side.

Tips for Best Results

Red Wine. 99% of the alcohol will evaporate while you reduce and slow cook the wine, so you don’t taste it in the final dish. It just provides a richer deeper flavor.

Short Ribs. For this recipe, I prefer to use bone-in short ribs. However, you can easily use boneless short ribs or even beef tips.

How to store and reheat

Storage. When it’s cooled off, transfer to an air-tight container and refrigerate for 4-5 days.

Reheat. I prefer to reheat it in the oven because of the even heat distribution. You can also do it on a stove top over medium heat.

Freezing. You can freeze it in a freezer friendly bag or an air-tight container for up to 3 months. To defrost, just leave it in the fridge overnight and reheat as mentioned above.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I make this recipe in Instant Pot?

Yes! This recipe is based on my popular Instant Pot Boneless Short Ribs. You can just follow that recipe and cook bone-in short ribs on manual high pressure for 45 minutes with 15 minutes natural pressure release.

Can I make this recipe ahead of time?

Yes! You can cook it a day before and just reheat it in the oven before ready to serve. They actually taste even better on the second day as all the flavors melt together.

How to make Braised Short Ribs without Red Wine?

If you don’t want to use alcohol in your meal, you can substitute it with beef broth. Just skip the step with adding and reducing the wine and add 5 cups of broth instead of 3 cups.

How to serve

Potatoes. The best way to serve braised beef is with some good homemade potatoes. These are my favorite recipes:

  • Instant Pot Mashed Potatoes
  • Gruyere Potatoes au Gratin
  • Loaded Mashed Potatoes

Vegetables. Vegetables and greens are always a good addition! Because the braised meat is very rich and quite heavy, it’s good to have some veggies on the side to lighten up the meal.

  • Honey Roasted Carrots and Parsnips
  • Oven Roasted Cherry Tomatoes
  • Green Beans Amandine
  • Roasted Broccoli with Parmesan

Bread. There is nothing better than freshly baked homemade bread!

    This recipe is very good and definitely a fancy one for special occasions. I will say though so people making it are more realistic, the prep time as in cutting of vegetables and searing of them and the meat took me 1.5 hours. Next time I make this I’ll be checking it in the 3 hour cook or adding minimally another cup of beef broth before putting it the oven because the juice simmered down, I never checked it so I didn’t know that the top of my meat got black and dried out since it’s not covered by juice that’s what happens to it. So I’ll add more juice and then blend the vegetables when it comes out with an additional cup of beef broth if needed for more juice since I made it with pappardelle that requires a juicy sauce. My hubby said it needed some salt so I will be adding salt to the vegetable blend at the end and pouring it back on the meat.

    Very good, however prep takes much longer than 20 minutes. I would give yourself 90 minutes before getting them into the oven for the 3 hours. Total took about 5 hours including searing the meat and cooking down sauce in beginning and after the oven bake. Served with mashed potato’s and green beans and it was perfection! Thank you for the recipe!

    My sister send my this recipe and I made it for an early Christmas dinner. I did approx 1.5 times the recipe ( for 10 people). I’ve never made braised short ribs before and this recipe made it sooo easy. The flavor is amazing and everyone raves about it! I ended up getting 7.5 lbs of short rib but I wish I got more because everyone wanted seconds and I didn’t have enough! Based on reviews, I allotted myself an hour and a half to prep the meat and make the roux/ gravy and that was juuust enough. They took about 3 hours to be done fully. Thank you!! Will definitely make again

    Great recipe! I had to make with boneless short ribs since my butcher was out of bone in. I got about 4+ pounds to serve 7 adults and it was exactly enough, no leftovers. I cut it into about 12 pieces and then followed the recipe. Cook time was still about the same at 3 hours. I did leave the veggies in and puréed with an immersion blender. I also added a little bit of cornstarch to thicken the sauce as well and it made an excellent gravy. Served with Veronika’s Pressure Cooker Mashed Potatoes, fresh green beans and corn. Family loved it!

    This looks delicious. I’m sorry this is a dumb question but before you put the bone in short ribs on the mashed potatoes, do you tear it off the bone? Or did you put it bone and all on the mashed potatoes and then cover with the gravy?

    Listen, I don’t know if I’ve reviewed this recipe or not in the past, but this is the absolute bomb! I make it in my Le Creuset with about 3 1/2 pounds of bone in short ribs and a fabulous Cabernet that I then have a Glass of while I’m having the dinner and it’s the best thing I’ve ever eaten. I did add another cup of beef broth before I put it in the oven because the last time it seemed to all boil away but this time it was absolutely perfect and my neighbors are so jealous of me right now.

    Made this today. Was absolutely wonderful. What the directions don’t say-at the end, take the short ribs out, drain the veggies and simmer the liquid till it reduces by 75% (this will make it thick), add two TBS butter, return the short ribs back to the sauce and serve them over mashed potatoes.

    Made this for the third time yesterday, seriously so good! Only way I want to make short ribs now. I would just suggest starting making this no later than 3pm if you want to eat it by 6-7pm. You want the ribs to fall off the bone type of tender & that requires time.

    As some have mentioned, the cook time is not realistic. Prep may take 20 minutes, but there’s about an additional hour of stovetop time prior to the 2.5-3 hours in the oven. I cut the meat to 1.5-2lbs, but left the liquid and vegetables at the listed quantities. A full 3 hours in the oven had the meat tender and delicious!

    Try actually timing this without having all of the ingredients literally layed out in front of you as if your a TV chef. Then add a sprinkle of “I’m a home chef” and give a real time estimate. To be so far off in claimed time is rather out of touch with the world. If the flavor blows my mind or if it was terrible I’ll post again, otherwise it was probably just okay.

      So you gave a 3 star rating because the prep time is off? In your comment you didn’t even try it, so you are commenting on a recipe you haven’t tried.
      I find that out of touch with the ‘real world’. You could have looked at the recipe and calculated the minutes in each step.

    Delicious dinner! The sauce was excellent – I thickened it with a slurry of approx 1 tsp of cornstarch & water. Meat was cooked perfectly after 2.5 hours. The meat fell off the bones but I took the time to remove the fatty/grizzle layer once finished cooking so not to struggle with it at the table. Excellent!

    Making this for the second time this afternoon. The first time was a hit, that’s for sure. Wondering if you (or anyone) has used a hand blender to blend the vegetables into a paste/sauce, to make a thicker sauce – and if there was any success. I may try it today and see how it goes!

      We have used the immersion blender to blend the veggies into the sauce! It worked well to thicken it and to not waste the veggies (perfect way to hide them from the kids- haha!). We use it as a gravy and serve the meat over mashed potatoes. Yum!

    I tried this recipe with my family and everyone loved it. Just read through the instructions because the estimated time is very off. The prep itself is closer to an hour between dicing, browning the meat, cooking the vegetables, and reducing the wine. Not a big deal just a little deceiving when you’re trying to plan.

    I found that there was not a lot of liquid left after braising for 2.5 hours. The liquid that was left was mainly grease. So I removed the bay leaves and put all the vegetables and juice into my ninja. The mixture was a little tick so I thinned it out with some beef stock. So good!

      Hi Marie, If you don’t have a Dutch oven, you can sear everything in a skillet, then transfer everything to a deep baking dish, cover with a lid or foil, and bake according to the instructions. Hope that helps.

    OMG this recipe is the best. I used the simmering beef ribs from Costco. They come four long pieces in a pack. I cut each portion in half to make it easier for people to grab a piece. I separated the veggies from the gravy as per the recipe but then I thought, why throw out all that yummy goodness? So I threw the veggies back into the gravy and used my immersion blender to blend it all. What a smart cook I am! That gravy is thick and absolutely delicious. This is at the top of my favourite recipes. Thanks so much to Veronikaskitchen for the recipe.

    Made this recipe as directed (always on a first pass–modifications later…). It was a delicious hit! I used my hand blender to blend the gravy with the vegetables, leaving about 1/3 the veg in the now ultra-silky, just-thick-enough gravy. No additional cornstarch needed due to the blending. I let the ribs cook for 3 hours. Honestly, I think 2-2 1/2 would have been enough…next time.

      Bailey, I would not cut the cook time down. It’s not the volume of meat that determines the cook time, it’s the toughness of the cut. Short ribs need plenty of time to cook to break down the meat fibers until they are tender. Hope this helps!

    The only deviation for me was I added a red bell pepper to the mirepoix. Then, when the meat was done, I added 4oz. of sliced mushrooms to the food and cooked for an additional 10 minutes.

I’ve made it twice now, once for family, and again multiplied for a large Christmas dinner crowd. OMG, beyond amazing. The meat falls apart it’s so tender and the flavor is like I’ve never tasted. Give it a try. I served it over mashed potatoes with a splash of the gravy both times.

      Thank you, Debbie! The gravy might get a bit greasy if the short ribs had too much fat on them. There are two ways you can fix it. The first, you can trim the excess fat from the meat before you sear and cook it. Second, after everything it cooked, take the meat out and scoop the excess grease from the top of gravy with a spoon.

There was almost no waste other than the bone. I served it over mashed potatoes. I also served it with maple glazed carrots on the side. So, thank you for this recipe.

      Hi! I just made this recipe tonight with the same problem. I used a large pot to sear the meat and do all the steps on the stove. Once it says to move to the oven I just transferred everything to a ceramic casserole dish with a lid and it worked great!

    Great recipe! I plan to make this for a fall friends dinner with 12 people. I made last weekend as a test. I learned two things. First, I need to double the recipe to serve that many. Confirming to double meat but only 1.5 time liquid and vegetables? Second, I would love to make this on a Friday and serve on Saturday. Should I make it. Not strain anything and store in my refrigerator in the Dutch oven then reheat the next day and stain vegetables and heat sauce on stove like normal? If so, how long should I reheat it in the oven and at what temperature? THANK you!!

      Hi Madison! Glad you liked the recipe. If you want to double the meat, I would double the liquid as well. This will be a great recipe to make a day before. Also, after you refrigerate it, you can scoop out some extra emulsified grease from the top of the pot/container. I like to reheat it in the oven in a pot at 350F for about 20-30 minutes. Hope that helps 😉

    Excellent recipe! I cooked the ribs for 2.5 hours and then reheated them from room temperature for 45 minutes at 325F. I added some additional spices (salt, pepper, thyme, garlic powder) after straining the sauce. Served with sautéed multi-coloured heirloom carrots with fresh rosemary and garlic mashed potatoes.

      Why is meat still tough? It’s because you haven’t let the collagen break down. Extend the cook time, make sure there’s enough liquid and keep an eye on the dish. It’s tough because it’s not done.

      It takes 2-3 hours for the low heat to break down the connective tissues and for the fat to be properly rendered. This is what braising means. An hour is nowhere near long enough to cook this. I’d say try it again but follow the time closer. You’ll be very happy with the results.

    I made this tonight on a whim after seeing your recipe. I figured it would be delicious but this was INSANE. The recipe is absolute perfection. My grocery store didn’t have short rib so I subbed with some Chuck. I’ve never made something so perfect with my own hands. I served it over homemade Yukon gold mashed potatoes. After my husband tasted it he got super serious, looked me dead in the eye, and said, “IT’S EXQUISITE.”

    Is there a difference between using USDA Prime grade short ribs vs. Choice grade? I suspect not as the marbled fat will just melt into the sauce? The Prime grade costs just $1 more per lb over the Choice at Costco, so it’s tempting.

      Hi Karen, I never tried to use a slow cooker for this recipe, but I have two other suggestions.
      First, you can follow all the steps on the stove top, then transfer everything in a dip baking dish, cover with foil, and bake in a breville oven until the meat is tender.
      The other option is to cook everything on the stove top. The part that is suppose to be baked, just slowly simmer in a dutch oven (covered with the lid) on the stove top. It might take a bit longer to cook, but it should work. I just braised short ribs for ragu on the stovetop and it worked as well as in the oven 😉

      Might be a good idea to not let the meat sit in the Dutch oven after cooking if not serving right away, as it may dry out from the residual heat. Instead, remove it to a plate and cover with foil to keep warm.

      BTW, I finally tried this recipe (once w/ short ribs, another w/ a cross rib roast) and it was DELICIOUS. I did let the short ribs sit overnight in the dutch oven and I think the meat dried out somewhat.

    Since my organic beef broth comes in a quart box I decided to use the extra cup of broth to make more gravy so that I could cook my organic carrots.
    Followed the recipe as written but after I took the ribs out of the oven I removed them out and strained the gravy and set aside. I used the Dutch oven and added a couple tablespoons of oil and equal amount of flour and made a roux. Added the leftover cup of brother along with the gravy that the ribs cooked it and boiled about six large diced carrots. While they were cooking I removed the bones and added the meat in with the gravy and carrots. It was phenomenal.

While the carrots were cooking I removed the bones and added the meat back in with the gravy and carrots. It was phenomenal.

      You can delete my first post. I think I had enjoyed the remaining red wine when I wrote it.

    Question, do you serve with the bone or pull the meat off? Thanks!

    Made this last night and everyone said it was delicious! It was my first to make braised short ribs and I was surprised at how easy it was. Left the veggies in gravy and served over homemade mashed potatoes with a side of broccoli.

    Chose this as our Valentines Day night-in meal and I am so happy I did! Rave reviews from both my daughter and fiancé. I did cut the red wine to one cup but that is the only tweak I made. Served with veggies remaining in the gravy over mashed potatoes. Just amazing, very flavorful! Thank you for this!

      Hi Marisa! I would keep the full amount of liquid, just because you want the meat to be submerged into the liquid, so it won’t be dry.

    Hello! I followed this recipe exactly and when I pulled it out of the oven, there was barely any liquid left. Did I do something wrong or is that how it’s supposed to be? It went in the oven with lots of liquid and I cooked for 2 1/2 hours.

    Your prep time of 20 minutes is misleading. Searing the meat and reducing the wine alone took around 35-40 minutes. But the dish was flavorful and my family loved it.

    I just made these tonight and they are delicious! I might have done something wrong though. I took them out of the oven after 2 hours and they were so tender, but the sauce had thickened so much it was separated from all the fat. I had to separate the yummy part from the fat and remake the sauce. Can you tell me what I might have done?

      You can try, but I think it will be a bit too small and might spill some sauce. If you do that, just make sure you also put a baking pan on a lower lack to catch any spills.

    This was a big hit at my house! The meat was very tender and savory and the gravy was delicious. I used a heavy duty roasting pan and covered it with foil to bake.as my Dutch oven wasn’t quite big enough. The only additional ingredient I used was Better Than Bullion ( about a tablespoon ) to the bullion mixture. It makes it very rich and the gravy. Thank you for suggesting the type of red wine to use also. My family says to add this to my “Make Again” file.

I just realized I didn’t reduce the wine beforehand like the recipe calls for. Will it be okay????? PLEASE HELP!!!Mayday Mayday….praying it will work out.

      Hi Mel! I’m glad you and your friends loved the recipe! The main reason we reduce the wine is to evaporate alcohol and enhance the flavors. I think it still will come out good but you might not have that rich deep flavor from the reduced wine. Let me know how it came out 😉

      Hi Karolyn. No, you need to cook the ribs in the oven. If you don’t have a dutch oven, you can sear the meat and vegetables on a skillet and then transfer everything to a deep casserole dish and cover it with foil.

    Made these for dinner tonight. Flavor was incredible, so tasty, I can’t wait for leftovers tomorrow! My only negative was that the meat and braising liquid both seemed too fatty? Maybe that’s just how short ribs are or maybe I got an extra fatty cow? They all looked the same in the store and I even trimmed off some excess fat before searing? Just curious if this is just the norm with short ribs?

    • Veronika's Kitchen says

      November 16, 2020 at 8:42 am

      Hi Denise! The short ribs should be a bit fatty but the not too much. It could be the particular cut you got, it’s hard to say. If you refrigerated some leftovers, you can scoop out some emulsified fat from the top before reheating the rest, that will reduce a large amount of fat.

    Absolutely fantastic! I had to improvise as I didn’t have any tomato paste (I know, I know) so I shot about a tablespoon of reduced sugar ketchup in. Also, added a little Maagi as I put it in everything. Had an open bottle of a red blend and it was perfect. Kept the veggies and served on the side. Amazing flavor all around!

    These look amazing! I have short ribs in my refrigerator as we speak! I love the dark rich gravy you have. Just wondering if the short ribs in the pictures were made with the red wine or with the beef broth? I am looking for a nice dark gravy sauce. I do not cook with red wine a lot, but if it would produce that kinda if sauce I will do it. Thank you for sharing
