Elk short ribs are a delicious cut of meat that are sometimes overlooked because they can be tougher than their thicker counterparts. However, the key is to braise them low and slow until the meat is fall-off-the-bone tender!

This recipe works for either elk or venison short ribs, and are perfect for summer grilling season, or a hearty winter BBQ dinner.

Ingredients Needed:

2.5-3 lbs. The Honest Bison Elk Short Ribs
2 Tbsp. olive oil
¼ tsp. salt
¼ tsp. black pepper
1 yellow onion – diced
1 Tbsp. minced garlic
3 cups stout beer
2 cups BBQ sauce
