Pizza night is always a favorite, especially when you have great tasting pizza from some of the most popular restaurants.

These braised short ribs are a perfectly balanced blend of familiar and new. Red wine braised beef is tried and true, but throwing in fresh marjoram and ripe olives really switches up the flavor palette.
2 1/2 pounds beef short ribs, cracked
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
salt and pepper, to taste
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 medium red bell peppers, seeded and diced
1 medium yellow onion, diced
2 cups beef stock
1 cup red wine
1 cup sliced ripe olives
2 tablespoons chopped fresh marjoram
Sprinkle the ribs on all sides with the flour. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
Heat the oil in a deep skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ribs and brown 4-5 minutes on all sides. Remove from the pan and set aside.
Add the bell peppers and onions to the pan. Cook, stirring, for 3-4 minutes or until softened.
Stir in the stock, wine, olives, and marjoram. Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally.
Add the ribs to the skillet again. Reduce the heat to a simmer, cover, and cook on low for 3 hours or until the ribs are tender and pull away from the bone easily. Turn the ribs occasionally to ensure even cooking.
Pizza night is always a favorite, especially when you have great tasting pizza from some of the most popular restaurants.

I think the title is misleading and might be putting people off. It's not a spicy recipe like hot red peppers but rather sweet red BELL peppers. And in fact, you could use green bells if you wanted with similar results.

A first-rate recipe! We followed the recipe exactly and it was superb. We used a peppery Merlot for the wine. The meat was tender and fell off the bones. The ripe olives were a wonderful touch adding both texture and taste. We highly recommend trying this recipe.
