Best 9 Juniper And Beer Braised Short Ribs Recipes

EASY BEER BRAISED SHORT RIBS WITH DELECTABLE GRAVY

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 275 F.
• Clean and rough chop all the veggies and set aside. Pat dry the ribs and liberally season with salt and pepper on all sides.
• Over medium-high heat the cooking oil in a braiser/Dutch oven or large heavy skillet and sear the short ribs for about 1-2 mins on each side. Work in batches so that you do not overcrowd the pan. When nicely browned, remove the short ribs and set aside.
• Lower the heat to medium, add the veggies, stir them and let them soften for a few minutes. Add the flour and tomato paste (if using) stir and cook for about a minute.
• Deglaze by adding the beer and be sure to scrape all brown bits from the bottom of the pan. Add the beef stock, the bay leaves, sage, thyme and stir in the brown sugar. Add the short ribs, distribute evenly and increase heat to bring to boil.
• Once boiling cover and place in the oven for about 3 hours. The ribs should be very tender before you take them out of the oven.
• When the short ribs are done, remove them from the braising liquid (carefully, the meat will be very tender) and let them rest for a few minutes. You can then remove the tendons and bones before you serve them.**
• Use a large, heavy skillet and complete steps #2 thru #5 from the Braiser/Dutch oven method above.
• Very carefully transfer the braising mixture and the ribs to your slow cooker and cook on low until they reach your desired tenderness.
• If you want to make a gravy from the braising liquid first scoop out the vegetables and discard them. Using a large spoon skim off and remove as much of the fat floating on top of the liquid. Then strain the braising liquid using a sieve.
• Heat a pan***over medium heat, add the strained braising liquid and the Dijon mustard and bring to simmer, mix to incorporate, add slurry and stir to thicken.

BRAISED SHORT RIBS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Salt and pepper the ribs, then dredge them in the flour. Set aside.
• In a large Dutch oven, cook the bacon over medium heat until completely crispy and all the fat is rendered. Remove the bacon and set aside. Drain off any excess fat.
• Add the olive oil to the pan with the bacon fat and raise the heat to high. Brown the ribs on all sides, about 45 seconds per side. Remove the ribs and set aside.
• Lower the heat to medium. Add the carrots, shallots and onions to the pan and cook for 2 minutes. Splash in the wine and scrape the bottom of the pan to release all the flavorful bits of glory. Add the broth, 1 teaspoon kosher salt and plenty of freshly ground black pepper and bring to a boil. Taste and add more salt if needed. Add the ribs to the liquid; they should be almost completely submerged. Add the thyme and rosemary sprigs (whole) to the liquid. Finally, add the cooked bacon.
• Put on a lid and transfer to the oven. Cook until the ribs are fork-tender and falling off the bone, 2 to 2 1/2 hours. Remove the pan from the oven and allow to sit for at least 20 minutes with the lid on before serving. At the last minute, skim the fat off the top of the liquid. (You can also refrigerate the mixture, then remove the solid fat from the top.)
• For each serving, arrange 2 ribs on a bed of the grits, spooning a little juice over the top.
• Cook the grits according to the package instructions, adding the salt with the water. Turn off the heat just before the grits are done.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a small bowl, whisk together the eggs. To temper the eggs before adding them to the hot grits, throw a couple of spoonfuls of the hot grits into the eggs. Begin stirring immediately and continue stirring until the mixture is well combined.
• Pour the egg mixture into the grits. Stir constantly to incorporate the eggs into the grits. Add the butter and stir until melted. Next, add the cheese and stir until melted. Add the cayenne and garlic and stir well to combine. Taste and adjust the seasonings, adding more salt or cayenne if necessary. You could also add more cheese if you think that will bring happiness to your life, but keep in mind that some cheeses increase the salt content more than others.
• Butter a 9-by-13-inch baking dish and pour the grits into the dish. Bake until the grits are hot and bubbly, 30 to 35 minutes. Let stand for 10 minutes before serving. The grits will become firmer as they cool.

• Drain the oil and return the Dutch oven to medium-high heat. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons oil and the onion, carrot and celery. Cook, stirring, until soft and brown, about 7 minutes. Add the tomato paste and cook, stirring, about 1 minute more. Return the ribs to the Dutch oven, add the juniper, thyme, beer and broth. Bring to a boil, cover, place in the oven and bake until tender, about 2 hours.
• Transfer the ribs to a baking sheet, cover with foil and keep warm. Using a sieve over a saucepan, strain the liquid. Place saucepan over high heat, bring to a boil and cook, uncovered, until reduced to 1 cup, about 8 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste and stir in the honey.

ROOT BEER BRAISED SHORT RIBS

Steps:

• Dice the onions, celery, and carrots; the pieces should be about the same size. Smash the garlic cloves. Peel 4 long strips of orange rind. Set everything aside.
• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Place short ribs on a rimmed baking sheet lined with parchment paper and season all over with salt and pepper. In a large, heavy-bottomed pot with a lid, heat oil over high heat. Place short ribs in an even layer, without overcrowding (you might need to work in batches). Brown on each side, about 8 minutes total. Transfer browned ribs to a baking sheet.
• Reduce heat under the pot to medium. Add the diced onions, celery, carrots (a combination known as a mirepoix) and garlic to the drippings. Use a wooden spoon to stir, loosening the brown bits (fond) on the bottom of the pan. Then, sweat the vegetables until onions are translucent and have no color, 4-5 minutes. Stir in the tomato paste and cook to slightly caramelize, 2-3 minutes. Meanwhile, pick thyme leaves from stems and thinly slice orange strips horizontally. Add 2 cups chicken stock, followed by thyme leaves, orange peel, Worcestershire, bay leaves, and root beer. Tuck short ribs into root beer mixture, then add 2 more cups chicken stock, just to cover; it's fine if some ribs are showing, since they'll shrink as they cook. Bring to a simmer; then cover and place in the oven for 4-4½ hours.
• Check ribs after 4 hours; the meat should be very tender and pulling away from the bone. (If it needs more time, return to oven and check again after 30 minutes.) Use a strainer or slotted spoon to transfer the ribs to a wire rack fitted over a rimmed baking sheet. Strain braising liquid through a large strainer or chinois into a clean skillet. Bring strained liquid to a gentle simmer; spoon away and discard the fat from the edges of the pan. When most of the fat has been removed, bring to a boil to reduce slightly, 3-4 minutes.
• Assembly: Gently place the short ribs back into the sauce and baste, to warm. Plate the ribs, ladle sauce over the top, and garnish with fresh parsley. Serve immediately.

BEER-BRAISED SHORT RIBS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325°F. Set a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat; add the olive oil. While the pot is heating, season the short ribs on all sides with salt and pepper. Brown the short ribs over medium-high heat in batches with ample room between them so they brown, not steam (if they start to burn, decrease the heat a little), 2 to 3 minutes per side. Remove from the pot and reserve on a plate.
• In the same pot used to brown the ribs, sauté the bacon and onion over medium heat until the onion is soft, about 3 minutes; add the garlic and sauté 1 minute more. Stir in the beer, soy sauce, vinegar, and Worcestershire. Return the browned ribs to the pot, cover, and cook in the oven for 3 hours. Remove the pot from the oven and stir in the carrots and port. Cook until the meat is tender and just about falling off the bone, another 1 1/2 to 2 hours, for a total cooking time of 4 1/2 to 5 hours. After 4 hours of braising, stick a knife in the thickest rib; if the meat is still firm, continue cooking. Remove the pot from the oven; pour the liquid into a large glass measuring cup and let it sit until the fat rises to the top, about 15 minutes. Pour off the fat and return the liquid to the cooking pot.
• TO MAKE THE CORNMEAL MUSH: Heat the milk until steaming in a large, heavy saucepan set over medium heat. Slowly pour in the polenta, whisking constantly. Turn the heat to low and continue whisking for 10 to 15 minutes until the mixture thickens. If it seems hard to whisk, thin with an additional 1/4 cup of milk. The cornmeal should be on the loose side. Whisk in the butter, salt, and Parmesan. Serve immediately topped with short ribs.
• The short ribs can be made a day ahead, refrigerated, and reheated just before serving. The cornmeal can be made an hour or so before serving. Reheat over medium heat; add milk in 1/4-cup increments until the mixture is creamy and smooth.
