    I love how most food youtubers eat a bite and rave about how good it is, but then we have Ethan over here murdering an entire plate without saying a word.
  • @mdswanson
    I really liked that you talked about how to make this ahead of time, then how to store and reheat. Pretty much every other video/recipe assumes you are going to cook something from 0 to 100 then immediately eat it with no left-overs and it's not reality.

    Ethan: "I like to add 15 cranks of black pepper to mine" Cuts at 11 Me: Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
  • @shiolei
    Awesome to see braised dishes, especially as the weather is getting cooler in the northeast!
  • Once again, a simply put cooking experience that anyone can grasp. Beautiful video, Ethan. Best wishes!
  • Ethan! I’ve been braising short ribs for 40 years. I wanted to try a new method, I followed your instructions completely. This is the best dish top to bottom that I’ve served my VIP dinner guests in ages. Folks, don’t skip the layer of mirepoix or the gremolata! Fabulous!
  • I'm a Chef and this is one of the best videos on how to properly cook this. Kudos
  • I love making this dish for dinner parties - it's incredibly simple and full of flavours. By the way, try shredding the short ribs and put a small "nest" of the meat on top of a mushroom risotto. Absolutely heavenly.
  • @nbrikha
    Well, guess I'm cooking again tonight. You're channel makes it so easy to cook. It's inspired how to take recipes and make them accessible to home cooks without losing the essence of the original recipe. Can't praise you enough for that
  • @gordontubbs
    Lots of home cooks have a dish that "unlocked" their inner chef and got them cooking on a regular basis. For me, that dish was braised beef.
  • You do not understand how much satisfaction I felt when you said “polenta aka corn grits” literally no one acknowledges that it’s basically the same one just gets to be overpriced and fancy😂😂
  • @suestefano7671
    I love to cook but I’m still a novice with LOTS to learn. Key point, I never braised anything before. But I followed your recipe to a ‘T’ and it was the BEST meal I ever made hands down! In fact my family (and I lol) are asking for it again! Thank you so much for making such an all around informative video that produces fantastic and delicious results! Wish we could post our results!
  • @davidmilner1262
    I never realized that you could make this ahead like you showed. That's honestly why I've never ventured in to braising short ribs because I don't have 6 hours on a Tuesday night to cook and eat. Unless I want to be up and eating my dinner at midnight haha So glad you showed this. Can't wait to give it a go!
  • @davidwitt5585
    Braised short ribs, lasagna, bolognese, etc. They all have that "so much flavor" and satisfying feeling to them. Really are some of the great foods of the world. Just about anything that cooks over the course of hours and hours.
  • @RetardedGoat16
    I don't have an oven big enough to put a Dutch oven in, so I let it simmer on the stove top for the same amount of time and it turned out just as good. Love this recipe, I'm planning to cook it for my friends, with a side of mashed potatoes.
  • @tropnevad
    For anyone curious about "polenta", AKA cheese grits, it's a Southern US staple. I've literally never not had grits in my pantry. Make some just like he said, skip the milk, add whatever cheese you like that melts (gouda is my favorite, but American is classic). Then drop some scrambled eggs with either bacon or sausage and mix it all together. That's a Southern breakfast bowl.
  • @WonderLure42
    Made this today and everyone loved it. The only change I made was to do a Parmesan risotto instead of the polenta, given we have some people in the house who can’t really do the corn meal. Anyway, everyone looovveeedd it. Thanks so much!
  • @HowToCuisine
    OH MY GOD! There is no words to describe how delicious and tempting this looks! 😍😍
