Instructions

  1. 1

    Pat the short ribs dry. Mix salt, pepper, smoked paprika and garlic powder and rub it all over the ribs.

  2. 2

    Preheat the oven to 325°F. Heat the oil in a Dutch oven over medium high heat and sear the ribs in batches, 3 to 4 minutes per side, until deeply browned.

  3. 3

    Remove the ribs, lower the heat to medium and cook the onion and garlic for 5 minutes. Add the broth and return the ribs, bone side up.

  4. 4

    Cover and bake for 2 1/2 to 3 hours, until fork tender.

  5. 5

    Simmer all the glaze ingredients in a saucepan over medium heat for 15 minutes until thick and jammy.

  6. 6

    Cover the potatoes with cold salted water, bring to a boil and simmer 15 to 18 minutes until very tender. Drain and steam dry for 2 minutes.

  7. 7

    Press through a potato ricer, then fold in the butter, cream cheese, warm cream and salt.

  8. 8

    Place the ribs on a lined sheet pan, brush with the peach glaze and broil 3 to 5 minutes until sticky and lightly charred.

  9. 9

    Spoon the mashed potatoes onto plates, top with the ribs, drizzle with extra glaze and sprinkle with chives.
