   Preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.

3. 3

   Season short ribs with salt, black pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, parsley, and paprika.

4. 4

   Add oil to a large Dutch oven (oven-safe) over medium-high heat and once heated, add the onions and garlic, sautéing until fragrant and translucent, about 1-2 minutes.

5. 5

   Add in the carrots and red peppers, continuing to sauté for another 1-2 minutes. Remove veggies from Dutch oven and onto a plate. Set aside.

6. 6

   Add in the short ribs (meatiest side down) and cook until golden brown before flipping it to the opposite side to brown.

7. 7

   Once all ribs are golden and brown, add back in the sautéed veggies along with the beef stock, BBQ sauce, and cooking wine, stirring everything together until sauce becomes dark and combined. Add in the baby potatoes and stir again.

8. 8

   Remove from heat and add the Dutch oven to the preheated oven, cooking everything for 2/12 to 3 hours, stirring slightly every 30 minutes to ensure that meat isn't sticking to pot or burning.

9. 9

   In the meantime, roast your apples.

    --- TO ROAST APPLES: ---

11. 11

    Add the sliced apples, olive oil, and seasonings in a bowl, mixing everything together until apples are fully coated.

12. 12

    Place apples unto a baking sheet lined with parchment, and bake until the apples are golden-brown and still a bit crunchy, about 10 to 15 minutes.

13. 13

    Once done, remove roasted apples from oven and add them into the Dutch oven with ribs, stirring them in a bit until incorporated.

14. 14

    Let ribs continue to cook until allotted time.

15. 15

    Once ribs have become extremely tender along with the veggies, remove everything from the oven and serve immediately unto a platter.
