instructions
Tie together thyme and rosemary with twine and set aside.
Set Instant Pot Max to Saute. Once hot, add bacon and cook until crispy. Remove bacon from Instant Pot and save for later use.
Season short ribs with salt and pepper. Add short ribs in batches, searing on all sides. This will take about 5 to 7 minutes per batch. Remove short ribs to a plate and set aside.
Unplug the Instant Pot to cool slightly, about 3 minutes. While Instant Pot is cool, melt butter and stir in onions, carrots and celery.
Turn Instant Pot back on to Sauté. Cook vegetables until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in garlic and tomato paste.
Add wine and deglaze the pan, scraping up any browned bits at the bottom. Stir in stock and tomatoes. Nestle meat back into the pot.
Add herb bundle, cover, and cook on High pressure for 40 minutes. Naturally release pressure.
Remove meat and simmer sauce on Sauté until reduced, about 5 to 7 minutes.
While sauce is reducing, stir together ingredients for gremolata in a small bowl.
Serve short ribs with sauce spooned on top. Sprinkle with gremolata.
notes
I highly recommend serving this dish with mashed or roasted potatoes!
