Stout-Braised Beef Short Ribs
  1. 1

    Gather all the ingredients.

  2. 2

    Season the ribs with salt and pepper. Dredge them in flour until coated, then shake off the excess.

  3. 3

    Heat the olive oil and butter in a Dutch oven or large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the ribs until browned, about 5 minutes per side, then remove them and set aside.

  4. 4

    Add the onion and garlic to the pot and cook, stirring, until the onion is tender, about 5 minutes. Return the ribs to the pot and pour in the beer, scraping up the browned bits from the bottom. Pour in the beef stock.

  5. 5

    Cover and simmer over low heat until the ribs are very tender, about 2 hours.

    Serve and enjoy.
