The combination of tender, slow-cooked short ribs and silky white wine pasta sauce creates an indulgent foundation for this elevated comfort dish. The short ribs bring a depth of flavor that transforms an ordinary pasta dinner into a memorable experience, while the white wine adds a sophisticated brightness that cuts through the richness perfectly.

The key to this pairing lies in the cooking process. As the short ribs simmer slowly, they release their savory essence into the sauce, while the white wine — typically a crisp Pinot Grigio or buttery Chardonnay, adds layers of complexity with its subtle acidity and fruit notes. The pasta, preferably a robust shape like pappardelle or rigatoni, acts as the perfect vehicle for capturing both the succulent meat and the velvety sauce, ensuring each bite is a delicious blend of flavors.

Ahead, we’re dropping a TLDR (too long, didn’t read) TikTok version of the meal, along with our own recipe to add your own spin to it.
