Gorgonzola Polenta

This polenta dish goes with the Cabernet-Braised Short Ribs. On its own, its a very tasty dish and one that I would make again. The Gorgonzola may have been a tad strong for the ribs and could have been cut in half. I think that the flavor would still be good, just not so intense. It really did seem to fight the subtle flavor of the ribs.
