Cover the pan tightly with a lid. Reduce the heat to low and let the ribs simmer gently on the stovetop, or transfer the covered pan to an oven preheated to 325°F (165°C). Cook for 2.5 to 3 hours, or until the short ribs are fork-tender and easily pull apart.

Once cooked, carefully remove the tender short ribs from the pan. If desired, you can skim any excess fat from the surface of the pan sauce. For a thicker sauce, you can reduce it over medium-high heat for a few minutes until it reaches your desired consistency.
