Short Rib Chili: An Amazing Ultimate Recipe You Must Try

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 pounds short ribs
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 large onion, diced
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 bell peppers, diced (red and green)
  • 2 jalapeño peppers, diced (optional for heat)
  • 2 cans (15 oz each) diced tomatoes
  • 2 cups beef broth
  • 2 tablespoons tomato paste
  • 2 tablespoons chili powder
  • 1 tablespoon cumin
  • 1 tablespoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon oregano
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 can (15 oz) kidney beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 can (15 oz) black beans, drained and rinsed
  • Fresh cilantro for garnish (optional)
  • Sour cream for serving (optional)
  • Shredded cheese for serving (optional)

Instructions

  1. Season the short ribs with salt and pepper.
  2. In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the short ribs and sear on all sides until browned. Remove and set aside.
  3. In the same pot, add the diced onion, garlic, and bell peppers. Cook until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
  4. If using, add the diced jalapeño peppers and cook for another 2 minutes.
  5. Add the diced tomatoes (with juice), beef broth, and tomato paste to the pot. Stir well, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom.
  6. Stir in the chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, oregano, and adjust salt and pepper to taste.
  7. Add the seared short ribs back to the pot. Bring to a simmer.
  8. Cover the pot and reduce the heat to low. Let it cook for about 2 hours, or until the short ribs are tender.
  9. Remove the short ribs from the pot. Let them cool slightly, then shred the meat from the bones, discarding any fat and bones.
  10. Return the shredded meat to the pot along with the kidney beans and black beans. Stir well and cook for an additional 10-15 minutes to heat through.
  11. Taste the chili and adjust the seasoning as necessary.
  12. Let the chili rest for about 10-15 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
