Epcot Braised Short Ribs in Cabernet with Rosemary and Thyme is a comforting, classic dish that is sure to warm you up on a chilly evening. The beef is slow-cooked in a rich cabernet sauce, infused with fresh rosemary and thyme for added depth of flavor. This is a great recipe for entertaining, as it can be made in advance and then reheated on the stovetop or in the oven. Serve with a simple side salad, creamy mashed potatoes, or crusty bread to soak up all the delicious sauce.

Instructions

1.Preheat the oven to 325°F.
2.In a large Dutch oven over high heat, combine the wine, beef broth, rosemary, thyme, and garlic. Bring the mixture to a boil and simmer for 5 minutes.
3.Season the beef short ribs with 1 teaspoon of the salt and the pepper. In a separate pan, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat and brown the beef on all sides, about 5 minutes per side.
4.Add the browned beef to the Dutch oven along with the pearl onions and sliced mushrooms, cover, and place in the oven. Bake for 2.5 to 3 hours, until the meat is tender.
5.Remove the Dutch oven from the oven and transfer the beef to a serving platter. Strain the sauce, discarding the solids, and return the sauce to the Dutch oven. Over high heat, bring the sauce to a boil and cook for 5-7 minutes, until reduced and thickened.
6.Serve the beef with the sauce, garnished with fresh rosemary and thyme if desired.
