Ingredients
6 pounds beef short ribs, cut into 1-rib pieces
1 tablespoon olive oil
3 medium onions, chopped
4 large garlic cloves, minced
1 1/2 cups dry red wine
a 28- to 32-ounce can stewed tomatoes including liquid
1 1/2 cups beef broth
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
2 teaspoons chopped fresh rosemary leaves or 1 teaspoon dried rosemary, crumbled
1/2 teaspoon salt
a 1-pound bag peeled carrots
Garnish: finely chopped fresh parsley leaves
Instructions
Pat short ribs dry and season with garlic salt and pepper and flour. In a heavy kettle (at least 6 quarts) heat oil over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking and brown ribs in batches, transferring with tongs to a large bowl.
Add chopped onions to kettle and cook over moderate heat, stirring, until golden. Add garlic and cook, stirring, 1 minute. Add wine, tomatoes, broth, Worcestershire sauce, rosemary, and salt and bring to a boil.
Add ribs and vegetable to a large dutch oven. Cover, cook 350F for 2 hours, or until meat is tender. Transfer stew with a slotted spoon to a large bowl. Stew may be made 3 days ahead and cooled uncovered before chilling covered. Reheat stew, adding water as necessary to thin sauce.
Serve stew with biscuits.
