Short Rib, Brie and Ricotta Pizza with Caramelized Onions

197

I have a serious love for short ribs so I am testing it every which way, upside down, backwards and forwards. This one was easy. I used the braising liquid over the dough and it sure makes for a delicious sauce. The different cheeses all compliment each other and it turns out that yummy melted brie is divine with short ribs! Then for a little sweetness I tossed on some caramelized onions
