Oven-Baked Beef Short Ribs

These Oven-Baked Beef Short Ribs start with browning the beef in a stockpot to seal in the flavors. After a quick saute with the garlic, onions, and scallions, transfer everything into a casserole dish and bake in the oven till the beef is fall-off-the-bone tender. This is a hearty meal that is wonderful when served with the accompanying steamed butter rice. This is a recipe by Elizabeth Ann Quirino on The Quirino Kitchen .
