Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 5 pounds bone-in short ribs
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 large heads garlic, halved crosswise
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 4 ribs celery
  • 2 medium carrots, chopped
  • 3 tablespoons tomato paste
  • 2 cups dry red wine
  • 2 cups beef stock or bone broth

  • ½ cup finely chopped chives
  • 1 tablespoon finely grated lemon zest

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 275 degrees F.
