Instructions
Short Ribs
- Season the short ribs with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
- In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the short ribs and sear on all sides until browned.
- Add the sliced onion and minced garlic, and cook until softened.
- Pour in the beef broth and Worcestershire sauce. Bring to a simmer, cover, and cook on low heat for 2-3 hours until the meat is tender and falls apart easily.
- Remove the short ribs, shred the meat with two forks, and set aside. Strain the liquid and keep for a sauce if desired.
Assembly
- Lay a large tortilla flat on a clean surface. In the center, layer some mac & cheese, then the shredded short rib, and top with extra cheddar cheese.
- Fold the edges of the tortilla towards the center, creating a sealed wrap.
- Dip the wrap into beaten eggs, then coat with bread crumbs.
Cooking:
- In a large skillet, heat oil over medium heat.
- Carefully place the crunch wrap seam side down in the hot oil. Cook until golden brown, then carefully flip and cook the other side.
- Remove from the oil and let it drain on paper towels.
