Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 160°C (320°F).
- Cut the short ribs into individual pieces and dust them in plain flour.
- 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.
- In the same pot, add the carrot, onion, mushrooms, and speck. Cook until the vegetables begin to soften.
- Stir in the garlic and tomato paste, cooking for an additional 30 seconds.
- Pour in the beer, scraping the bottom of the pot to deglaze and release the flavorful bits.
- Stir in the wholegrain mustard, thyme, and rosemary. Mix well.
- Return the beef ribs to the pot, along with any resting juices, and add the beef stock. Bring everything to a simmer.
- 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.
- 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.
