Beer Braised Beef

served with saffron risotto and garlic string beans for 2

• 3 lbs chuck cut into chunks
• 16 oz Beer (I used Miller High Life)
• 3-4 carrots
• 2 small onions chopped
• whole garlic cloves

Season Beef with Salt + Pepper (and throw in some paprika and cayenne if you want a kick). Heat some olive oil in a pan over medium heat and sear the beef on all sides and remove. 

Pour in a little bit of beer and scrape up the bits. Add the Veggies and cook on a low flame for 45 minutes.

Oven 350. Pour veggies into a tall oven proof dish and nestle the beef chunks in between. Pour in the rest of the beer or until it comes about half way full. Cover and cook in the oven for three hours. Strain the veggies out and return the liquid to the meat and enjoy!
