Braised Short ribs IP

I use the 8 q Duo Crisp. You can use the IP to Sear the meat in prior to cooking, but I use a frying pan for better sear and control.

6 Large Short ribs.
1 Onion Sliced thin.
2 ribs Celery chopped.
2 large Carrots chopped into 2” pieces.
1 Roma Tomato quartered.
4-5 cloves Garlic only smashed or crushed.
2 c Chicken Broth.
Montreal steak seasoning. Sprinkle all sides.
1/2-1 tsp Thyme.
1/2-1 tsp Rosemary.
1/4 tsp Fish Sauce.
1/2 of a Single serve sized bottle of Cab Sauv Red Wine.
2 Tbsp Evoo

Flour and Water or Milk for a slurry for the Gravy if you want Gravy

Take the Ribs out of their package and bring to room temperature, about an hour.

Season the Ribs on all sides with the Montreal or just course Salt and Pepper.
Using a large Frying Pan set to Med Hi, pour the EVOO in and add the Garlic to heat with the oil. Let it sizzle but don’t let it burn, then remove it from the Pan before it browns, and add it to the Veggies when you put them in the Pot.
Set 4 of the Ribs in the Pan carefully and sear all sides well. Remove them as they finish up. Add the last two as the others finish up searing.

While the Meat is searing, add the Chicken Broth to the Inner pot.
Chop and add the Veggies and all other Ingredients to the Inner Pot. When the Ribs are done searing nestle them down into the Veggies and Broth the best you can.
At this point, I add potatoes to the top if I want them.

Put the lid on and set to Sealing. Set the time for 30 min, and then let it NPR for 30 min. Turn the Pot off and back to Sauté Hi for the Gravy.
Remove the Ribs to a Plate and set aside to keep warm. Remove Veggies to a Bowl.
Make the Gravy by making a slurry of 1 Tbsp flour per each Cup of Broth For the amount of Gravy that you want.
If you don’t want a bucket of Gravy, then just pour off all of the Broth that you Dont want into a container to save for the next Pot Roast Broth or Soup and freeze that.. Say you want to Keep 3 c for Gravy.. leave 3 c in the Pot.
Use a small bowl to mix 3 Tbsp Flour and 1/2 c water or milk if you prefer, stir well and then drizzle that into the Broth while stirring the gravy with a Whisk. Let it come to a boil for a couple min to get the gravy cooked well. ..

my Chicken Broth was jelled Bone Broth.
Notice the rich color of the Seared Side. Do this to all sides. It takes about 15 min but welllll worth it.
As some of the Ribs finish up Searing, they shrink up, giving for more room for the others.
Nestle the ribs down into the veggies and broth. The broth won’t cover them at this time but broth will be created as they cook.
