Ingredients
  

  • 3 lbs Bone-In Beef Short Ribs
  • 3 cups Baby Carrots
  • 2 cups Mushrooms Sliced
  • 2 cups Beef Broth See notes for optional alternatives.

Notes

Tip: If you want your liquid to be thicker like gravy combine ½ cup water and 1 tablespoon of cornstarch and stir till combined. Add the liquid to a sauce pan over medium heat and whisk in water-cornstarch mixture. Whisk continuously until slightly thickened, about 2-4 minutes. Leftover Storage: Store leftover in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. To re-warm microwave on high for 30-60 seconds. Recipe Alterations: You can swap the wine out for additional beef broth or even use water.
