Preheat your oven to 350F 175C. Season the short ribs with salt and pepper.
In a large oven-safe pot, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Sear the short ribs on all sides until browned, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.
In the same pot, add chopped onion, carrots, and garlic. Cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
Stir in the tomato paste and cook for 2 minutes, then pour in the red wine to deglaze the pot, scraping up any browned bits.
Add crushed tomatoes, beef broth, bay leaves, and thyme. Return the short ribs to the pot, submerging them in the sauce.
Cover the pot and transfer it to the oven. Braise for 2 to 3 hours, until the short ribs are fall-apart tender.
Remove the ribs from the pot, shred the meat, and return it to the sauce, discarding the bones. Stir well to combine.
Serve the ragu over cooked pasta or polenta, topped with freshly grated Parmesan. Enjoy the rich, comforting flavors!
