1 28-oz can crushed tomatoes
3 cups beef broth
2 tsp fresh rosemary, chopped

1. Season meat with salt and pepper.2. COAT a large, nonstick pan with olive oil. Sear the rib pieces over medium-high heat for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until brown. Transfer ribs to a bowl.3. ADD onions to pan and cook over medium heat for approximately 3 minutes. Once onions are translucent, add garlic and cook for 1 minute; do not brown.

RETURN chuck ribs to pan, including any juices that might have accumulated in the bowl. Cover and let simmer for 3.5 hours on low heat to complete the braising process. Remove meat from pan and boil the liquid until it is reduced by half, about 10 minutes.5. RETURN chuck ribs to pan and heat thoroughly.6.
