Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 1.5 kg (3.3 lbs) beef short ribs, trimmed
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • ¼ cup plain/all-purpose flour
  • 1 large carrot, diced
  • 2 brown onions, sliced
  • 300 g button mushrooms small ones left whole, or thickly sliced
  • 150 g speck or substitute with diced bacon
  • 2 fresh garlic cloves, crushed
  • 2 tablespoons tomato paste
  • 2 tablespoons wholegrain mustard
  • 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves or 1 teaspoon dried
  • 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, finely chopped
  • 350 ml beer lager or any beer of your choice
  • 500 ml beef stock
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 160°C (320°F).
  2. Cut the short ribs into individual pieces and dust them in plain flour.
  3. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large flameproof casserole dish or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Fry the ribs in batches until browned on all sides, adding extra oil if needed. Set the browned ribs aside.
  4. In the same pot, add the carrot, onion, mushrooms, and speck. Cook until the vegetables begin to soften.
  5. Stir in the garlic and tomato paste, cooking for an additional 30 seconds.
  6. Pour in the beer, scraping the bottom of the pot to deglaze and release the flavorful bits.
  7. Stir in the wholegrain mustard, thyme, and rosemary. Mix well.
  8. Return the beef ribs to the pot, along with any resting juices, and add the beef stock. Bring everything to a simmer.
  9. Cover the dish and bake in the oven for 2 hours, or until the ribs are tender. If needed, cook for an additional 30 minutes to ensure the meat is fall-off-the-bone tender.
  10. Season the dish with salt and pepper before serving. For a thicker sauce, remove the ribs and simmer the liquid on the stove until reduced.
