Braised Short Ribs


I found this recipe for Braised Short Ribs in a magazine and decided to try it.  What I like about this recipe is that you can mix it up a lot.  Don't get hung up on the ingredient list as this turned out to be similar to beef stew.  You could interchange the panchetta for back bacon, or eliminate it altogether.  I don't think it's essential to get the most expensive and exotic mushrooms, but it does call for something "meaty," so cremini's or portobellas would work best.  Some good beef stock would be excellent in this if you have an aversion to alcohol, and, while you're at it, you can even use a a different cut of beef.  Essentially, it's a good base, and if you like short ribs, you will enjoy this.
