Easy Keto Carnivore Braised Short Ribs

Step by Step Instructions

1. 1

   Season short ribs generously with salt on all sides. Let sit for at least 30 minutes to allow the salt to absorb into the short ribs. Preheat oven to 325 degrees.

2. 2

   Add your favorite cooking fat (lard, tallow, duck fat) into a large Dutch oven and heat over medium-high heat until hot. Working in batches add in 3-4 short ribs and sear on all sides for 1-2 minutes each side until a golden brown crust appears on all sides. Be sure to work in batches to eliminate the steaming effect that happens when they are too close together. Steaming will prevent the meat from forming a nice crust which locks the flavors and moisture inside the short rib.

3. 3

   Add short ribs back to the Dutch oven and add garlic sauce if using. Pour in chicken bone broth and bring to a boil. Remove from heat and put in a 325 degree oven for 1.5 to 2 hours or until the rib meat has pulled away from the bone and is fork tender.
