Short Ribs With Collards And Peppers Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 275 degrees. Heat oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Season short ribs on all sides with salt and pepper. Working in batches, sear short ribs on all sides until deeply and evenly browned, 6 to 8 minutes per batch. Transfer browned short ribs to a large plate and continue with remaining ribs.
• Pour off all but 2 tablespoons of remaining fat, leaving the good browned bits behind. Reduce heat to medium, and add garlic, cut side down and cook, undisturbed, until golden brown, about 1 to 2 minutes. Add onion, celery and carrots and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat and continue to cook until vegetables are softened but not yet browned, about 5 to 10 minutes. Add tomato paste and stir to coat. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until tomato paste has started to caramelize a bit on the bottom and up the edges of the pot, about 2 to 3 minutes.
• Add red wine and, using a wooden spoon, scrape up any browned or caramelized bits. Let this simmer 2 to 3 minutes, just to take the edge off and reduce a bit. Stir in beef stock along with thyme. Using tongs, return short ribs to the pot, along with any juices that have accumulated, nestling them in there so that they are submerged (if they are just barely covered, nestle them bone side up so that all the meat is submerged, adding more beef stock or water as necessary to cover). Bring to a simmer, then cover and transfer to oven.
• Cook, undisturbed, until short ribs are meltingly tender and falling off the bone (you should be able to shred the meat with a fork), 3½ to 4 hours.
• Using tongs, remove the ribs from the pot, taking care (for presentation purposes, really) not to let the bone slip out and transfer them to a large plate. (While you could serve the short ribs right out of this pot, the vegetables have all given up their flavor and texture and aren't worth much now, so feel free to strain the sauce for easier eating.) Scatter parsley, chives and lemon zest over the top of the short ribs. Separate the fat from the sauce, season with salt and pepper and serve alongside.

Steps:

• Preheat a 6-quart air fryer to 350˚ F. Sprinkle the ribs with the chile-lime seasoning. Arrange in the air fryer basket in an even layer (it's OK if they fit snugly). Cook, turning halfway through, until the ribs are browned and crisp, 25 to 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a medium pot over medium-high heat. Add the onion, celery, carrot and garlic; cook until the vegetables are tender, 6 to 8 minutes. Season with 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Add the collard greens, vinegar, sugar and 3/4 cup water and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer, loosely cover and cook until the collards are tender, 20 to 25 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, if needed.
• Transfer the ribs to a large bowl; add the barbecue sauce and toss to coat. Return the ribs to the air fryer and cook until the sauce is slightly sticky, 5 minutes. Serve with the collard greens, rolls and more barbecue sauce.
