- Salt
- black pepper
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 onion, finely diced
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 0.5 cup carrot, finely diced
- 0.5 cup celery, finely diced
- 0.5 cup fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 cup white wine (dry)
- 4 tbsp tomato paste
- 28 oz strained tomatoes
- 3 cups beef broth
- 1 fresh herb bundle (rosemary, thyme, basil – tied with kitchen twine)
- 1 package rigatoni pasta
- 1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese

## Instructions

1. Pat the short ribs dry and season generously with salt and pepper.
2. Heat olive oil in a pot and sear the short ribs on all sides until golden brown. Remove and set aside.
3. In the same pot, add finely diced onion and cook until soft.
4. Stir in minced garlic, finely diced carrot, finely diced celery, and chopped fresh parsley. Cook until fragrant.
5. Pour in white wine, scraping the brown bits from the bottom of the pan to deglaze. Simmer for 2-3 minutes.
6. Stir in tomato paste, then pour in strained tomatoes and beef broth. Season with salt and pepper to taste and mix well.
7. Return the seared short ribs to the pot and add the fresh herb bundle.
8. Cover the pot and braise in a preheated oven at 325°F (163°C) for about 4-5 hours, or until the meat is fork-tender.
9. Once braised, remove the herb bundle from the pot.
10. Take out the short ribs, shred the meat from the bones, and return the shredded meat to the sauce in the pot.
11. Boil rigatoni pasta until al dente, reserving about ½ cup of the pasta water.
12. Toss the cooked rigatoni pasta with the braised beef sauce, adding reserved pasta water if needed to reach desired consistency.
13. Stir in freshly grated Parmesan cheese until the sauce is creamy.
14. Serve immediately.
