After 3 hours, you can carefully remove your short ribs from the pot. Use a strainer to strain all remaining ingredients, into a saucepan. In a separate bowl mix flour and water until there are no clumps. Add to your sauce and let this simmer on medium-low until it thickens and you have a smooth gravy.
