Coffee-Marinated Bison Short Ribs

These coffee-marinated bison short ribs offer a sophisticated twist on classic slow-cooked comfort food. By marinating the lean bison meat in a rich brine of strong coffee, maple syrup and rosemary, the fibres are tenderised while absorbing a deep, smoky complexity. This high-protein dish is then braised slowly in a savoury liquor until the meat is succulent and falling away from the bone, resulting in a truly impressive main course.

Perfect for a weekend dinner party or a special family gathering, this recipe can be prepared in advance to allow the flavours to develop further. Bison is a fantastic, nutrient-dense alternative to traditional minced beef or steak, offering a lighter yet equally satisfying finish. Serve these ribs alongside creamy mashed potatoes or seasonal root vegetables to soak up the glossy, reduced coffee glaze.
