Cooking instruction summary:

For the cold-brewed coffee Combine the coffee and water and let infuse for 12 hours. Strain through cheesecloth or a coffee filter. Discard the solids. Reserve for the short rib marinade. You will have extra coffee, so drink up! For the short ribs Marinate the short ribs in wine and coffee for 12 hours. Preheat the oven to 300F. Remove the beef from the marinade and pat dry. Season generously with kosher salt and black pepper. In a dutch oven or large cocotte, heat the olive oil to medium high and sear the ribs on all sides. Remove the beef from the pot, pour off the spent oil and add the shallots, garlic and carrots. Lightly roast the vegetables until they take some color and just begin to soften. Add the miso paste and stir to coat the vegetables, taking care that they dont burn. Deglaze the pot with the wine and coffee used to marinade the beef. Reduce by half the volume. Add the ribs back in and add the stock. The meat should be covered. Prepare a cartouche, or paper lid, and place directly on top of the meat. Cover this with the lid from the dutch oven. Place the short ribs in the oven for at least 4 hours. They should be tender and yielding, but not falling apart to the touch. When they are done, gently remove them and place into an oven-proof container. When cool, trim them into 6-8oz pieces. Strain the braising liquid back over the meat. Harvest the shallots from the other vegetables and reserve for the final plating. For the polenta In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, scald the water and milk with the thyme leaves. Add the cornmeal in a steady stream, whisking all the while. Simmer the polenta for 30-40 minutes until thick and creamy with no resistance from the grains. Whisk in the butter along with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper. For the brussels sprouts In a saut pan, heat the olive oil over high heat and quickly cook until just wilted. Season with sea salt For the plating Place the short ribs back in the oven so that the liquid reduces and starts to glaze the meat. It is important to baste the meat every 5 minutes or so. Reheat the polenta and divide amongst 4 plates with the Brussels sprouts scattered on top and around. Place a few of the warmed shallots from the braise around the plate. Place one short rib on top of each plate and pour the sauce over. A pinch of flaky sea salt wouldnt hurt as a finishing touch.

Food Joke

A Change In Plans Source: "Today's Woman" magazine, Barbara A Tyler. Martha Stewart will not be dining with us this Thanksgiving. I'm telling you in advance, so don't act surprised. Since Ms. Stewart won't be coming, I've made a few small changes: Our sidewalk will not be lined with homemade, paper bag luminaries. After a trial run, it was decided that no matter how cleverly done, rows of flaming lunch sacks do not have the desired welcoming effect. The dining table will not be covered with expensive linens, fancy China or crystal goblets. If possible, we will use dishes that match and everyone will get a fork. Since this IS Thanksgiving, we will refrain from using the plastic Peter Rabbit plate and the Santa napkins from last Christmas. Our centerpiece will not be the tower of fresh fruit and flowers that I promised. Instead we will be displaying a hedgehog-like decoration hand-crafted from the finest construction paper. The artist assures me it is a turkey. We will be dining fashionably late. The children will entertain you while you wait. I'm sure they will be happy to share every choice comment I have made regarding Thanksgiving, pilgrims and the turkey hotline. Please remember that most of these comments were made at 5:00 AM upon discovering that the turkey was still hard enough to cut diamonds. As accompaniment to the children's recital, I will play a recording of tribal drumming. If the children should mention that I don't own a recording of tribal drumming, or that tribal drumming sounds suspiciously like a frozen turkey in a clothes dryer, ignore them. They are lying. We toyed with the idea of ringing a dainty silver bell to announce the start of our feast. In the end, we chose to keep our traditional method. We've also decided against a formal seating arrangement. When the smoke alarm sounds, please gather around the table and sit where you like. In the spirit of harmony, we will ask the children to sit at a separate table. In a separate room. Next door. Now I know you have all seen pictures of one person carving a turkey in front of a crowd of appreciative onlookers. This will not be happening at our dinner. For safety reasons, the turkey will be carved in a private ceremony. I stress "private" meaning: Do not, under any circumstances, enter the kitchen to laugh at me. Do not send small, unsuspecting children to check on my progress. I have an electric knife. The turkey is unarmed. It stands to reason that I will eventually win. When I do, we will eat. Before I forget, there is one last change. Instead of offering a choice between 12 different scrumptious desserts, we will be serving the traditional pumpkin pie, garnished with whipped cream and small fingerprints. You will still have a choice: take it or leave it. Martha Stewart will not be dining with us this Thanksgiving. She probably won't come next year either. I am thankful.
