Provided by Kroger

Categories     Dinner

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

¼ cup Private Selection® Sumatran Mandheling Medium-Dark Roast Ground Coffee
2 cups boiling water
3 lb bone-in English-cut beef short ribs, cut crosswise into 2-inch pieces
1 ¾ teaspoons kosher salt, divided
Private Selection™ Tellicherry Black Peppercorn, to taste
2 tablespoons canola oil
1 Private Selection® Vidalia Sweet Onion, cut into 1 in (2.5 cm) pieces
4 cloves garlic, crushed
2 large carrots, cut into 1 in (2.54 cm) pieces
1 tablespoon all purpose flour
16 oz beef broth
2 bay leaves
2 sprigs fresh rosemary
1 ½ lb Private Selection™ Petite Medley Potatoes, halved
2 ½ tablespoons Private Selection™ Italian Extra Virgin Olive Oil, divided
16 oz Private Selection™ Handpicked Broccoli Florets, defrosted

Steps:

  • Arrange an oven rack in the lower third position and the other in the upper third position. Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
  • Add the Private Selection® Sumatran Mandheling Medium-Dark Roast Ground Coffee to the bottom of a French press. Pour the boiling water over the grounds. Give the coffee a quick stir, cover with the lid (leaving the plunger up) and let sit for 4 minutes. Press the plunger down all the way to the bottom. Immediately pour the coffee into a heatproof liquid measuring cup and set aside.
  • Season the short ribs all over with 1 teaspoon salt and pepper to taste.
  • Heat the canola oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. When the oil is shimmering, add short ribs, (in batches if needed) and cook until browned on all sides, about 8 minutes total. Transfer the short ribs to a plate and discard all but a thin layer of oil.
  • Return the Dutch oven to medium-high heat and add the Private Selection® Vidalia Sweet Onion, garlic, and carrots. Cook until the onion is translucent and the carrots have started to soften, about 5 minutes. Add the flour and cook, stirring frequently, until golden in color, 1 minute more.
  • Add the beef broth and use a wooden spatula to scrape up the browned bits from the bottom of the pot. Add the bay leaves, rosemary, short ribs and any accumulated juices, and 1½ cups of the brewed coffee. Bring to a boil.
  • Cover the Dutch oven and transfer to the oven. Cook for about 1½ hours, or until the short ribs are tender and the sauce has thickened.
  • Meanwhile, line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Add potatoes to a prepared baking sheet and toss with 1½ tablespoons Private Selection™ Italian Extra Virgin Olive Oil and ½ teaspoon salt until well coated. Spread in a single layer, cut side down. On the other prepared baking sheet, toss the broccoli with the remaining tablespoon olive oil and remaining ¼ teaspoon salt.
  • After short ribs have been in the oven for 1 hour, add the potatoes and broccoli to the oven and cook until tender, 25-30 minutes.
  • Remove the Dutch oven from the oven and transfer the short ribs to a platter. Discard the rosemary stems and bay leaves. Let the sauce settle, then skim the fat from the surface and discard. Season the sauce with more salt to taste.
  • Divide the potatoes and broccoli between shallow bowls, then top with the short ribs and spoon sauce over top.
  • Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Choose a chuck roast or similar well-marbled cut of beef for maximum flavor.
  • Sear the beef in a hot pan before braising to develop a rich, caramelized crust.
  • Use a flavorful braising liquid, such as red wine, beef broth, or a combination of both.
  • Add vegetables and herbs to the braising liquid for extra flavor and nutrition.
  • Braise the beef for at least 2 hours, or until it is fall-apart tender.
  • Serve the beef with the braising liquid and vegetables, or shred it and use it in tacos, sandwiches, or salads.

Conclusion:

Coffee-braised roast beef is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a special occasion or a weeknight meal. The combination of coffee and spices gives the beef a unique and flavorful taste that will please everyone at the table. Serve it with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a simple salad.
