Ingredients

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 350°F. Place a Dutch oven, over MEDIUM-HIGH heat on the stove.

  2. Step 2

    Season the Short Ribs with salt and pepper. When the Dutch oven is hot, add the tallow and Short Ribs. Allow to sear until golden brown on all sides 4-5 minutes per side.

  3. Step 3

    Remove the Short Ribs from the Dutch oven. Add onions and carrots. Sauté until onions become translucent and carrots are softening. Add garlic and stir until fragrant.

  4. Step 4

    Next, add the tomato paste, stir until smooth and the vegetables are coated.

  5. Step 5

    Pour in the stock and deglaze pan, then add cola.

  6. Step 6

    Add Short Ribs into the liquid. The liquid should come up ⅔ of the way up the meat. Bring to a boil. When boiling, cover the pan and place in oven.

  7. Step 7

    Braise for 3 ½-4 hours or until fork tender. If the beef requires more cooking, add additional beef stock if liquid levels are too low.

  8. Step 8

    Reserve liquids for gravy and drizzle atop the final dish.
