I am not even in the same class as the entries so far. Those are some amazing dishes.

Reverse seared short ribs slow cooked over a bed of Vidalia onions.



The onions were then caramelized in butter and finished with a 18 year old balsamic vinegar.

Served with creamed potatoes (for Balls.)

I was bummed out about this one even before seeing all of your entries... but here goes anyway. Vote for me if you feel pity.

This is a red wine braised short ribs over creamy brie grits. It ended up being a bit off from what I intended, but was still tasty.

First off, I picked up a pack of beef short ribs, flanken cut, but after opening the pack I realized they were all cut thin, like basically an extra thick slice of bacon. Not what I was expecting... regardless, might as well press on.



They got a generous seasoning of Tony's and garlic, then a soaking with a Federalist bourbon barrel aged Zinfandel. Of course I gave the wine some quality control, then everything got packed into the vacuum sealer, wine and all.





After about 24 hours submerged, I drained all the juice from the vacuum sealer and then gave the short rib sections a quick sear.





After the sear was complete, I pulled all the bones and chopped the meat sections finely.





I then added all the chopped beef ribs to the juices to soak with some additional red wine and started on the grits. I used some ground yellow corn grits with beef stock and a triple cream brie.





Meanwhile the juice reduced on the stove and I added a bit of water/flour mixture to thicken it up.



Now the final presentation... red wine braised beef short rib over triple cream brie cheese grits.



Not my best work, but it did turn out really delicious. I was initially planning on smoking larger sections of the flanken cut and serving bone-in with a red wine glaze.

I need to get more color in my dishes... if I hadn't put green onions on top it would have been shades of brown!

I'm voting for LL. As far as we can tell NOLA's ribs, while delicious looking, could've been frozen blocks of beef on the inside.

While true, they were not. I fried them at about 335-340 to ensure they were hot all the way through. But no matter
