Pre-heat oven to 300-F

1. Heat oil in a large braising pot (at least 4” sides)
2. Season ribs with salt and pepper and gently place in pot to brown on all sides
3. Remove ribs once browned to a paper towel lined plate and add mire-poix veg and tomato paste
4. Saute veg scraping up any and all brown bits and deglaze pot with bourbon. Be very careful as the alcohol will likely flame up
5. Once flame subsides, add wine and add ribs back to pot
6. Add 2 C (or enough water to come up just over half way of ribs) and bring to a gentle boil
7. Place in a 300F oven covered with foil and braise for 2 1/2 hours
8. Once done, remove from pan and allow to cool slightly before shredding with a fork
9. Strain liquid using a fine mesh sieve, discard solids but save liquid
10. Bring liquid to a boil and add more bourbon if desired as well as maple syrup, reduce to glaze consistency
11. Once beef is cool enough to handle, shred and add beef back to pot with sauce
12. Spray waffle iron lightly with pan spray and pour batter in
13. Cook following waffle iron instructions or to desired consistency – darker, crispier waffles will require a longer cook time
14. Once waffles are done, remove and place on plate
15. Top with shredded braised beef and a poached egg
16. Top egg with 1 fl oz ‘Old Bay’ Hollandaise (recipe to follow) and 1 tbsp pickled shallots (*optional, recipe to follow)
