Barbecue Braised Bourbon Beef With Mustard Glaze Recipes

Steps:

• For the beef: 2 tsp. chopped fresh thyme 2 tsp. chopped fresh rosemary 2 tsp. sweet Hungarian paprika 1 tsp. dry mustard (preferably Coleman's) Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper 1 4-lb. boneless beef chuck roast For the braising liquid: 2 to 2-1/2 cups lower-salt chicken broth 1/2 cup bourbon 1 Tbs. coarse-grain Dijon mustard 2 tsp. unsulphured molasses 2 large yellow onions, halved and thinly sliced (about 4 cups) 4 medium cloves garlic, peeled For the glaze: 2 Tbs. smooth Dijon mustard 2 tsp. chopped fresh rosemary

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Season the short ribs with salt and pepper and brown well in the oil and butter combined in a large saute pan. Remove the ribs and place into a casserole or roasting pan.
• Add the onion, carrot and celery to the saute pan and begin to caramelize the vegetables.
• Continue to cook the vegetable mixture before adding the jalapeno, garlic, tomato, cumin, beer and stock in quick succession. Bring this mixture to a rapid boil before pouring over the ribs in the casserole. The liquid should not rise more than 2/3 up the side of the ribs and the ribs should not be entirely submerged.
• Place the casserole into the oven, add the bouquet and braise the ribs until fork tender, about 1 1/2 hours.
• Remove the casserole from the oven, allow to rest for several minutes before placing the ribs on a sheet pan. Degrease the braising liquid, strain the vegetables out and discard and reserve the remaining juices for serving.
• Combine the mustard and honey in a bowl and liberally brush over the ribs. Place the ribs back into the oven and roast another 10 minutes until the glaze is caramelized dark and delicious.
• Serve with the cooking/braising liquid in a sauce boat.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325.
• In a small bowl, combine the thyme, rosemary, paprika, dry mustard, and 2 teaspoons each salt and pepper. Sprinkle the spice blend all over the roast. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours but preferably overnight.
• Heat 2 Tablespoons oil over medium-high heat in a Dutch oven with a tight-fitting oven-proof lid. Brown roast well on all sides. In a medium bowl, whisk together broth, bourbon, Dijon mustard and molasses. Pour over roast. Add onions and garlic and cover.
• Place covered Dutch oven in the preheated oven and cook 2 1/2 to 3 hours or until roast is fork-tender.
• Take Dutch oven out of oven and increase heat to 425. Remove roast from Dutch oven and place on a rack in a roasting pan. In food processor or blender, combine about 1/4 cup of the onion mixture in the Dutch oven with 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard and 2 teaspoons chopped fresh rosemary; process until smooth. Brush top and sides of roast with about 2/3 of mustard mixture. Place roast back in oven until glaze begins to brown. Flip roast over, top with remaining mustard mixture, and return to oven to brown again.
