With a braised beef, you never have to ask whether it’s rare or well done, because every piece will be done well. This cooking method creates soft, delicious, fall-off-the-bone goodness every single time. This makes it suitable for every preference and every gathering.
3 to 4 pounds short ribs, bone-in
avocado oil or avocado oil spray
2 large carrots, diced (1 and 1/2 cups)

3.Sear the short ribs on each side then set them aside.
