The shoulder chops are a little bit of work to eat, but there’s lots of taste to be had. Rubbed with a little Barbarian’s Steak Spice, served along with a rosti like potato hash brown topped with some grilled fennel, simple boiled carrots and spaghetti squash sautéed with onions, white wine, chicken stock and finished with parsley and Parmigiano-Reggiano.
Braised Beef Short Ribs Fusilli Col Buco
March 4th, 2006 by dinner
This is pretty simple and very good on a cold evening. Braise some beef short ribs, shred the meat, make a sauce and cook up some pasta, in this case Fusilli Col Buco. The sauce and meat cling to the pasta and along with some Parmigiano-Reggiano you can’t beat it for taste.
