Best 7 Stout Braised Short Ribs Recipes

STOUT BEER BRAISED SHORT RIBS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300 degrees.
• Pat the short ribs dry with a paper towel and season generously with salt and pepper. Heat the oil in a large Dutch oven, over medium high heat. Brown the short ribs on all sides, about 2-3 minutes per side, working in batches if necessary. Remove browned short ribs to a plate and discard most of the fat, leaving about 2 tablespoons in the pot.
• Lower the heat to medium and add the onions, garlic, carrots, celery and leek. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened and fragrant. Add the flour and cook, stirring constantly, until well combined.
• Add the beer and beef broth and, using a wooden spoon, scrape all the brown bits from the bottom of the pot. Then, stir in the brown sugar, bay leaves and thyme sprigs. Add the short ribs and bring to a boil. Once boiling, cover and transfer to the oven.
• Cook until the short ribs are very tender, about 3 hours.
• Option #1 - Serve same day. Remove pot from the oven and carefully scoop out the ribs from the pot. Remove the bones and tendons, being careful not to shred the meat. Reserve. Strain the liquid through a fine-meshed sieve into a clean saucepan. Stir in the mustard and cook the sauce until it's reduced to a consistency thick enough to coat the back of a spoon, removing the excess fat as it rises to the surface. Season sauce to taste with salt and pepper. If the short ribs have cooled, you can add them to the sauce to reheat them.
• Option #2 - Make one day ahead. Remove pot from the oven and let it cool to room temperature. Carefully remove ribs from the liquid and remove bones and tendons, being careful not to shred the meat. Strain the liquid through a fine-meshed sieve, getting rid of the veggies. Return the short ribs to the sauce and refrigerate overnight. The next day, the fat will have solidified on the surface. Remove it and discard. Remove the ribs and heat the sauce. Then, run the sauce through a fine-meshed sieve again, into a clean saucepan. Stir in the mustard and cook the sauce until it's reduced to a thick consistency. Season sauce to taste with salt and pepper. Add the short ribs to the pan to reheat.
• Serve, garnished with chopped parsley or thyme sprigs.

STOUT-BRAISED SHORT RIBS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Heat 3 tablespoons of the olive oil in a large Dutch oven or pot over high heat. Sprinkle the short ribs generously with salt and pepper on all sides and sear in batches if needed until brown, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Remove the meat from the pot to a large bowl and set aside.
• Add another 1 tablespoon of oil to the pot if needed. Add the onions and garlic to the pot and cook until lightly browned, 3 to 5 minutes. Scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot using a wooden spoon. Add the carrots and celery and let cook for another minute or 2.
• Add the Irish stout to the pot and scrape up the bottom of the pot to remove any more browned bits. Bring to a simmer, then add the beef stock and season with salt and pepper. Return the meat, along with any juices, to the pot. Bring the stew to a simmer and cook uncovered for 20 minutes. Cover and braise in the oven until the short ribs are tender and can be shredded easily with a fork, about 2 hours.

• Pat ribs dry and arrange in 1 layer in a shallow baking pan or a shallow dish, then generously coat all sides of ribs with spice mixture. Marinate, uncovered and chilled, 1 hour.
• Wash leeks in a bowl of cold water, agitating water, then lift out leeks and drain in a colander.
• Heat oil in pot over high heat until hot but not smoking and quickly brown ribs on all 3 meaty sides (but not bone side) without crowding, in batches if necessary, about 1 minute per side. Transfer meat to a large plate, then add leeks, carrots, celery, and bay leaves to pot and cook over moderately low heat, stirring occasionally, until vegetables begin to soften, about 3 minutes. Add garlic and cook, stirring, 1 minute.

STOUT BRAISED SHORT RIBS WITH BARLEY

Steps:

• Set a large pot or Dutch oven over high heat. Sprinkle the short ribs all over with a generous amount of salt and some pepper (no flour required here!). Add the oil to the pot and brown the short ribs well on each of the 3 meaty sides, about 15 minutes total. Work in batches so as to not overcrowd the pot. You want a deep brown color on the meat as this will give the stew its rich flavor and color when braising. Remove the ribs and set aside.
• Add the carrots, celery and onions to the pot. Saute the vegetables until caramelized and wilted, 8 to 10 minutes. Add the garlic and toss to combine and heat through. Return the ribs to the pot and nestle in amongst the vegetables. Add the thyme, bay leaves, rosemary, stout beer, broth and tomatoes. Season lightly with salt and pepper, then stir and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat, cover with a lid and simmer the ribs 2 1/2 hours. Periodically skim any excess fat on the surface and discard.
• After 2 1/2 hours, mix in the pearl barley and dry mustard powder, then cover once more and cook 45 more minutes. When done, remove the bay leaf, thyme and rosemary stems. Taste and season the braise with salt and pepper and serve.

STOUT-BRAISED SHORT RIBS WITH HORSERADISH & CARROTS

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 160C/140C fan/gas 2. Heat the oil in a casserole dish and brown the short ribs well on all sides - this will take about 10 mins. Remove the ribs to a plate, then fry the onion and celery in the dish for 5 mins. Stir in the herbs and flour, and cook for a few minutes, then stir in the sugar, stout and stock, and bring to a simmer. Add the horseradish cream and some seasoning, then nestle the ribs into the sauce. Cover the pan and cook in the oven for 1 hr.
• Peel the carrots, keeping them whole. Remove the stew from the oven, stir gently and add the carrots. Cover and return to the oven for 2 hrs more until the ribs are tender. You can now serve the stew in a rustic style, as is. Alternatively, gently remove the ribs and carrots to a board. Strain the sauce through a sieve into a saucepan and bring to the boil, skimming off any froth that rises to the surface. Simmer for 5 mins until reduced by a third. Tip the reduced sauce back into the casserole dish, add back the ribs and carrots, and simmer for a few minutes to reheat the meat. Divide between plates and serve.

• Directions: Season the short ribs generously on all sides with salt and pepper. In a large fry pan over medium-high heat, warm the oil until almost smoking. Working in batches (do not overcrowd), brown the ribs on all sides, 3 to 5 minutes per side. Transfer to a slow cooker. In the same pan over medium heat, cook the onions, carrots, celery and garlic, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer to the slow cooker and add the stout. Cover and cook according to the manufacturer's instructions until the meat is very tender, about 6 hours. Transfer the ribs to a large bowl and cover with aluminum foil. Skim the fat off the sauce. Using an immersion blender, puree the sauce until smooth. Transfer the ribs to individual bowls. Spoon the sauce on top and garnish each serving with a parsley sprig. Serve immediately. Serves 8.

BRAISED SHORT RIB, STOUT, AND POTATO POTPIES

Steps:

• Make the filling: Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Season short ribs with salt and pepper. Dredge short ribs in flour, coating all sides. Transfer to a large plate. Heat oil in a large Dutch oven over high heat. Working in batches, brown short ribs, about 1 minute per side. Transfer to a large plate using kitchen tongs.
• Reduce heat to medium. Add yellow onion to Dutch oven, and cook until golden, about 8 minutes. Add garlic. Cook for 2 minutes. Return meat to Dutch oven. Add stout and rosemary. Bring to a simmer. Cover, and transfer to oven. Bake for 2 1/2 hours.
• Remove Dutch oven from oven, and add cipollini onions. Braise until meat is tender and onions are cooked through, about 30 minutes. Shred meat using 2 forks. Season with salt and pepper. Divide filling among eight mini (1-cup) pie plates, or transfer to a 12-inch (8-cup) gratin dish.
• Make the topping: Raise oven temperature to 375 degrees. Peel potatoes, and very thinly slice each (preferably on a mandoline). Arrange potatoes over meat to form tight concentric circles, working around the edge and overlapping each potato by three-quarters. Brush with oil, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake until topping is golden and filling is bubbling, about 45 minutes for mini potpies (1 hour for large potpie).
