Braised Beef Short Rib Sandwich Recipes

SHORT RIB SANDWICH

Steps:

• To begin, gather and prep all of your short rib sandwich ingredients according to the ingredient list above to have ready and organized for use.
• Preheat your oven to 325°.
• Place the beef short ribs into a bowl and season with a couple of good pinches of salt and pepper.
• Place a Dutch oven or large braising pan over medium-high heat, and drizzle in about 2 tablespoons of oil. Once the oil is very hot, add the ribs in and allow them to sear and brown on that first side (about 4 minutes), then flip and brown on the other side, a few minutes more. Remove from the pan and set aside for a moment.
• Drain some of the fat from the pan, leaving about 2-3 tablespoons. Add the onions and saute those until lightly golden and softened, about 5 minutes, then add in the garlic, and stir.
• Once the garlic becomes aromatic, stir in the tomato paste, cooking it for about 30 seconds. Then add in the stout, the beef stock, and the BBQ sauce, and stir to combine.
• Nestle the short ribs back into the sauce, and bring to a simmer. Cover with the lid, and place into the oven to braise for about 2 1/2 hours, or until fork tender and meat is falling from bone.
• While the short ribs braise, gather and prep your coleslaw ingredients according to the ingredient list above to have ready and organized for use.
• To prepare your coleslaw, combine the mayo with the remaining ingredients up to and including the salt, and whisk until smooth. Add the coleslaw mix into a bowl, and drizzle the dressing over top, and toss to combine. Keep cold.
• Once the short ribs are tender, carefully remove them from the pan, and once cool enough to handle, shred the meat with a fork, and set aside for a moment.
• Puree the sauce that's left in the pan with an immersion blender, then place back over medium to medium-low heat, and gently simmer the sauce until slightly reduced, about 10 minutes. Return the shredded short ribs into the sauce and fold to combine.
• To assemble the short rib sandwiches, spread a touch of mayo on the top and bottom bun, then add some of the shredded meat with sauce, top with some of the coleslaw, and serve.
