Dino Ribs from the Baby Back are large and in charge! When paired with the sweet, fruity persimmon braise, this dish yields an exciting, yet elegant flavor. What more could you want? Sweet, tangy, meaty, and decadent. It’s the perfect “show off” dish for your next dinner party.
Ingredients List for the Persimmon Braised Dino Ribs from the Baby Back
- Prairie Street Co Beef Dino Ribs, separated
- 2 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil, divided
- 1 leek, cleaned and cut in half lengthwise
- 2 ribs celery, chopped
- 2 carrots, chopped
- 1 whole garlic bulb, cut in half horizontally
- 1 shallot, chopped
- 3 persimmons, chopped
- Fresh herbs in bouquet: thyme, rosemary, oregano
- 1 tablespoon tomato paste
- 2 cups dry, red Kosher wine, we suggest Cabernet Sauvignon
- 2 quarts beef stock
- Coarse kosher salt
- Ground black pepper
Preparation
Preheat your oven to 325°F / 163°C.
Lightly season both sides of your Dino Ribs with coarse kosher salt and ground black pepper.
Cook
Preheat a large, heavy bottom cast iron Dutch Oven on a high flame. Once hot, add a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil and then sear all the meaty sides of your Dino Ribs. When the ribs are fully seared, set aside and reduce the heat on the Dutch Oven to a medium flame.
To the Dutch Oven add your aromatics: leeks, celery, carrots, garlic, shallot, and persimmons. Mix using a wooden spoon, gently scraping up the fond from the bottom of the pot. Add your bouquet of fresh herbs. Increase the flame slightly to a medium-high heat so the aromatics can cook and begin to release their juices. Add in your tomato paste and stir with your wooden spoon to fully incorporate. Once the vegetables are fragrant and turning opaque, add your kosher red wine and deglaze the bottom of the pot. As the wine begins to reduce, add half of your beef or chicken stock. Place your seared Dino Ribs back into the Dutch Oven with the braise and then top off with the rest of your stock.
Cover your Dutch Oven with a tight-fitting lid and place in your 325°F / 163°C oven for about 4 hours.
Plating
After about 4 hours, take out your Persimmon Braised Dino Ribs from the oven and get ready to serve!
Plate them on a large serving platter and serve with roasted brussels sprouts and herbed potatoes.

Veal Paillard With Reduced Apple Gastrique
By Chef Kendra & Chef Yossel
Chef Kendra and Chef Yossel cook up Veal Paillard with Reduced Apple Gastrique made using Prairie Street Co’s Veal Chops.
An elegant dish perfect for date night or a small dinner party. Prairie Street Co’s sweet Veal Chops are gently pounded to an inch thick amplifying their tender and juicy nature. Paired with a reduced apple gastrique, you are sure to wow your dining companion with this surprisingly simple meal.
Ingredients List for the Veal Paillard
- Prairie Street Co Veal Chops
- Extra virgin olive oil
- Kosher salt
- Ground black pepper
Ingredients List for the Reduced Apple Gastrique
- 1 cup white sugar
- 1 cup water
- 2 cups natural apple juice
- ¼ cup rice wine vinegar
- ½ cup red wine vinegar
Preparation for the Veal Paillard
Cover your cutting board with plastic wrap and then cover your Veal Chops with plastic. Using the flat, smooth side of a meat gavel, gently pound your Veal Chops to about 1-inch thick. Pay particular attention near the bone so the meat doesn’t tear when you flatten it. Remove and discard your plastic wrap.
Cook for the Veal Paillard
Preheat your oven to 400°F/205°C.
Preheat a large, heavy bottom skillet over a medium to high heat. Once hot, lightly coat the skillet with a small amount of extra virgin olive oil. Season your veal with coarse salt and ground black pepper, then sear both sides of each paillard Veal Chop. Once a beautiful, brown crust has formed, sit to the side on a racked baking sheet.
About 10 minutes before serving, finish your paillard Veal Chops in a 400°F/205°C oven for about 4-5 minutes only as you do not want to over cook. You are looking for an internal temperature of 140°F/60°C.
Cook for the Reduced Apple Gastrique
Preheat a medium size stock pot (we recommend cast iron), over a medium flame. When hot, add your sugar and give it a little shake to even out the layer of sugar and then add your water to the sugar. Let the water and sugar bubble together, giving the pot a gentle shake every few 30-45 seconds. Once a golden color begins to form on the outside of the pot, gently stir with a whisk being careful not to kick the sugar to the sides of the pot.
After about 4-5 minutes once the water has evaporated and the sugar becomes a syrup consistency, add your natural apple juice and gently whisk. Reduce the heat to low-medium.
Let the sugar syrup and apple juice reduce for about 4 minutes and then add your rice wine and red wine vinegars. Gently whisk to combine. Turn off the heat and let the gastrique sit to the side. It will continue to slowly thicken while waiting to be plated.
Plating
When ready to eat, serve your Veal Paillard with a drizzle of your Reduced Apple Gastrique. We love this dish alongside a beautiful salad of bitter, sweet chicories and more apples.

- 1 tablespoon chili crisp, plus more
- ¼ cup soy sauce
- ¼ cup sesame oil
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar

Increase the flame to a medium to high heat.
To the wok or skillet with the beef juices add your cook lo mein noodles. Using your long spatula or spoon, keep stirring the noodles so they begin to soak up the beef juice. Add a generous serving (about 2-3 tablespoons) of your pre-made stir fry sauce to the noodles and stir. Remove the sauced noodles from the wok or skillet into serving bowls.

Garlic Studded French Roast with Horseradish Sabayon
By Chef Erica
Chef Erica’s Garlic Studded French Roast with Horseradish Sabayon using Prairie Street Co’s Beef Chuck French Roast.
Chef Erica’s Garlic Studded French Roast with Horseradish Sabayon uses Prairie Street Co’s Beef Chuck French Roast. This well marbled, large cut comes from the shoulder and yields a delicious, tender bite when using the dry heat, or roasting, method. Paired with lots of garlic and an elegant horseradish sabayon, this dish is a stunner for any dinner party!
Ingredients List for Garlic Studded French Roast:
- 1 Prairie Street Beef Chuck French Roast
- 1 whole head garlic, roasted
- 2-3 cloves of garlic, thickly sliced
- 1 tbsp fresh or dried herbs of your choice (we used dry rosemary)
- Extra virgin olive oil
- Kosher salt
- Black pepper
Ingredient List for Sabayon:
- 3 egg yolks
- ½ cup dry sparkling white Kosher wine
- 1 tsp horseradish
Preparation
Preheat your oven to 375°F/ 190°C
On your French Roast, squeeze and spread out all of the roasted garlic and then season with your choice of herbs, Kosher salt, and ground black pepper. Roll the French Roast together and using cotton butcher’s twine or netting, tie your roast together being sure not to tie the roast too tight. Using a paper towel, pat dry your rolled French Roast to remove any excess moisture. Drizzle with a little extra virgin olive oil and generously season with coarse Kosher salt and ground black pepper. Using your paring knife make about 10 small slits into the outside of your roast and “stud” the meat with the fresh, slivered garlic into the slits.
Cook
Place your French Roast on a roasting rack and place in the middle of your preheated oven. Roast for about 30 minutes and then check the internal temperature using your meat thermometer. Remove the roast from your oven when the internal temperature reads . Allow your French Roast to rest for about 15 to 20 minutes before removing the strings and slicing into it.
Making the Sabayon
Create your double boiler by heating about 3-4 inches of water in a medium saucepan. Once this starts to steam, place a medium size glass mixing bowl over the saucepan to create your double boiler.
To your mixing bowl add your egg yolks, white Kosher wine and whisk for several minutes to incorporate air into the ingredients. Once the combination starts to foam and thicken, add your horseradish and whisk. Remove the sauce from the heat once it is nice, thick, and has a bit of shine to it. This is best to serve immediately (or at least as soon as possible).
Plating
Slice your beautifully roasted French Roast into ½ inch to ¾ inch slices and drizzle with a helping of the sabayon. We like to serve this roast with roasted vegetables, like roasted delicata squash.

Cuisine Essentials: Knife Skills
By Chef Erica
Chef Erica demonstrates basic knife skills and how to safely handle a knife. Chef Erica explains how to sharpen a knife and safely position your hands. She demonstrates dicing an onion, mincing garlic, and how to chiffonade parsley.
Dice:
Dicing is similar to chopping, except dicing is always finely chopped, consistent in size, and neat in appearance. It's the precision of the cut that distinguishes dicing from chopping.
Mince:
This is the finest level of chopping, and is frequently done using a food processor, or a sharp chef's knife. Mincing is a technique that allows the maximum amount of flavor to be contributed by the minced food.
Chiffonade:
A French cooking technique used to finely cut herbs or leafy green vegetables (including basil, sage, mint, spinach, lettuce, etc.) into long, thin strips.

2. Take challah slices and cut off the edges. Cut into triangles to make toast points. Rub a bit of olive oil on each side. Toast the bread on the grill or toaster oven.
3. Cut the filet into strips and again into smaller pieces. Keep cutting until meat is chopped into little cubes. Add the meat to a bowl. Now add ½ teaspoon of Dijon mustard, a couple of drops of kosher Worcestershire sauce, chopped capers, spicy preserved lemon, and shallots. Gently mix everything together. Mound the tartare on center of a plate. Garnish with radish, black pepper, whole capers, and parsley. Add the toasts to the plate to complete the dish. Enjoy!

Kosher Mock Filet Mignon Two Ways
By Chef Erica
Chef Erica cooks a Kosher Dry Aged USDA Mock Filet Mignon Ribeye with a classic red wine reduction sauce. The Mock filet will be cut into individual medallions, and a Chateaubriand. Prairie Street’s Mock Filet is cut from the ribeye and is kosher.
Chef Erica will be demonstrating how to cut individual filet medallions and how to tie a Chateaubriand. This recipe can be used for either cut. She will be cooking on a live fire with a cast iron pan. She will also be making a classic red wine reduction sauce and grilled asparagus.
Ingredients List:
- Prairie Street’s Kosher Dry Aged USDA Prime Mock Filet Mignon Ribeye
- Kosher salt
- Black Pepper
- 1 Minced shallot
- Olive oil
- ½ Cup Kosher red wine
- ½ Cup beef stock
- Asparagus bunch
- Sprig of rosemary
1. Pat dry the meat. If serving individual portions cut the loin into 2-2 ½ inch thick medallions. Try to keep the sizes the same. At the wider end use butcher's twine or cut the meat thinner. The medallions cook quicker than the whole loin. The chateaubriand is the whole loin or roast. Butcher’s twine to make a uniform shape is optional.
2. Salt and pepper all sides of the meat. Heat the cast iron pan on the fire or stove top. Make sure the pan is hot, drizzle a little olive oil and sear the filet. You want to hear the meat sizzle. Let the meat brown for about 3 minutes on each side. If cooking the medallions take the temperature. Pull them off the heat at 125f/ 52c. The chateaubriand is thicker and needs to be cooked longer. If you are using a grill move to indirect heat or lower the heat on the stove. Cook for about 8 minutes on each side. Take the temperature before turning, it should be roughly around 80f/27c. Take the meat off the heat at 125f/52c. All meat continues to cook after it is removed from the heat. Remove meat from the pan. Let the meat rest.
3. Add a drizzle of olive oil to the pan, next add the minced shallots. Stir and coat the shallots with the brown fond mixture in the pan. Add the ½ cup of wine and let alcohol burn off. Add a ½ cup of beef broth and sprig of rosemary and let the liquid reduce. The consistency should be nappe or thick enough to coat the food. Finish with 2 pats of kosher vegan butter and fresh pepper.
4. Coat the asparagus with olive oil, salt and pepper and put them on the grill while the sauce is reducing. Let them cook for 6 minutes or until bright green and soft.
5. Place the asparagus on a plate, top thinly slice meat or a medallion and drizzle the red wine sauce on the plate.

Ingredients List:
- Prairie Street’s kosher Branzino fillet
- Kosher salt
- Black pepper
- Lemon
- Orange
- Olive oil
- Gremolata Sauce
- 1 Bunch of flat leaf parsley finely chopped
- 1 Garlic clove thinly sliced
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 Lemon zest
- Finely chop the parsley, mix in garlic and lemon zest, and add a light drizzle of olive oil
Blistered Tomatoes and Watercress Salad
- 1 Bunch watercress
- 1 Avocado
- ½ Cup of pomegranate seeds
- 1 Roasted yellow onion
- 1 Head of roasted garlic
- 6 Cherry tomatoes
- 1 tablespoon of olive oil
- ½ lemon juiced
- Kosher salt
- Black pepper
Mix the ingredients in a bowl and drizzle with olive oil, lemon, salt and pepper. See below “On the Grill” for cooked vegetables instructions.
On the Grill
Heat two cast iron pans on the grill. Next cut the top and bottom and remove the skin from the onion. Wrap in tin foil, drizzle with olive oil and place it over direct heat on the grill. Cut the top off the garlic, leave the skin, drizzle with olive oil, wrap in tin foil and place next to the onion.
Now pat dry the Branzino and salt and pepper it. Add olive oil to the cast iron pan and make sure it is hot. Place the fish skin down and press down with a spatula. This prevents the skin from curling and makes the skin evenly crispy.
Next add olive oil to the second pan. Let it get hot and add the tomatoes whole. Close the lid and let everything cook for 7 minutes.
Check the fish, the meat should be white and opaque. Let cook a few more minutes if necessary. The temperature should be 145f/63c. This is thin quick cooking fish. It should be firm and not translucent when fully cooked. Squeeze an orange and lemon on the fish. The steam will help release the fish from the pan. Plate the fish skin up and top with gremolata. For good measure give a squeeze of lemon.
Remove roasted onion, garlic and tomatoes from the grill. Add the roasted vegetables to the salad. The garlic should be squeezed onto the salad. Discard the skin and head of the garlic.

Chef David will be demonstrating how to cook Veal Alla Milanese with a cast iron pan. He will be cooking on a live fire pit using Prairie Street Kosher Veal Tomahawk chop, which you can purchase here:
https://prairiestreet.co/veal-tomahawk-rib-chop
Ingredients List:
- 1 Prairie Street Kosher Veal Tomahawk chop
- 1 egg
- 1 cup of all-purpose flour
- 1 cup of breadcrumbs
- 6 cherry tomatoes halved
- 1 teaspoon thyme
- 1 teaspoon oregano
- 1 teaspoon sage chopped
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon parsley chopped
- 1 teaspoon mint chopped
- 1 cup of Dijon mustard
- 1 cup of mayo
- Olive oil
- Arugula
- Lemon
- Kosher salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
To Prepare Your Kosher Veal Chop Milanese
Set your 12” Cast Iron pan on grill or open fire grate.
Using a paper towel, pat dry your Veal Tomahawk Chop to remove any excess moisture. In a bowl season flour generously with Kosher salt, freshly ground black pepper and paprika. Separately, beat eggs and two tablespoons of mustard. Finally, season breadcrumbs with oregano, sage, mint. Use a “Dry, Wet, Dry" three-step breading process to coat the veal chop. Flour (dry) helps egg adhere, egg (wet) helps the breading adhere, and breading (Dry) sticks to egg and won't break off in the pan.
Add olive oil to hot cast iron skillet. Give it a minute to heat up. Add coated veal chop and wait until the internal temperature is 90F degrees. Flip and make sure the breading is nice and brown. Spoon some hot oil from the pan on top of the chop. When the veal chop has an internal temperature of 135F degrees, sear the bone and the fat and move to the grate or grill. Let cook 2 more minutes on each side. The direct heat will crisp up the outside and dry out some of the oil. The final temperature should be 145F degrees, so remove at 140F degrees because it will continue to cook. Finish with salt and pepper.
Salad can be made ahead of time. Sprinkle the tomatoes with salt and olive oil. Let it sit for ten minutes and add a bunch of arugula. For dressing add mayo, 2 tablespoons of Dijon mustard, chopped parsley, chopped sage and squeeze of ½ lemon. Mix in a bowl. Server on the side.

½ bunch mint
3 garlic cloves peeled
1 lemon
1 cup Olive oil
Kosher salt
In small blender chop parsley, mint and garlic. Next squeeze 1 whole lemon and slowly pour olive oil into mix while blender is running. You want a bright green sauce with a little texture. Add a pinch of salt at the end.
Tarragon Aioli
-
1 cup of Mayonnaise
1 lemon zested
½ lemon juice
Teaspoon of tarragon finely chopped
Mix in small bowl or ramekin
Fruit wood is recommended for live fire. Ignite the fire and get the grate hot.
Next salt and pepper all meat except the skirt and hanger steak. Kosher skirt and hanger steaks are already salted, so just add pepper,
Start with the thicker proteins, the tomahawks and add them directly to the hottest part of the grill to get a crusty sear. Be careful not to burn the bones. Move the bones to indirect heat or cover with tin foil.
As the steaks are searing add lamb chop to indirect heat.
Turn the meat when the internal temperatures are around 90f
Put the beets and squash directly into the embers.
Add the rest of vegetables to indirect heat of the grill.
Add the skirt and hanger steaks last.
Add 2-inch-thick cut watermelon slice dust with sumac. Grill for 2 minutes on each side.
Remember to char all sides of the bone-in steaks. The fat needs to be hot to get buttery.
Below are some tips for when to remove the steaks. All proteins experience carryover cooking. Meaning they keep cooking after they are removed from the heat source. Use The chart to reach desire temperature.
Remove from heat at this temp - Final cooked temperature
- Rare 48ºC / 118ºF 50ºC / 120ºF
- Medium Rare 52ºC / 125ºF 54ºC / 130ºF
- Medium 58ºC / 136ºF 60ºC / 140ºF
- Medium Well 62ºC / 143ºF 65ºC / 140ºF
- Well Done 68ºC / 154F 70ºC / 160ºF
Grill management allows for multiple items with different cooking times to be made at the same time.
Use direct and indirect cooking methods. Make sure there are cooler spots on the grill. Items will have to be moved off direct heat, so they do not overcook. Cooking over indirect heat allows the food to cook evenly.
Some cuts of meat like hanger and skirt steak are very flavorful but can be chewy. Cutting against the grain makes the meat more tender because the knife breaks up the fibers.
Rescoldo is a method of cooking vegetables directly in the fire embers. Pull the beets and squash out of the fire once they are soft. Roughly 30 minutes. Add olive oil and salt and pepper to the vegetables. Cut the top off the squash and mix in sliced roasted peppers, top with micro greens, drizzle with olive oil. Separately cut the beets into big chunks and top with grilled watermelon.

Learn how to make a Moroccan Chilean Sea Bass Tagine!
By Chef Erica
Chef Erica simmers up a Moroccan Chilean Sea Bass Tagine using Prairie Street Chilean Sea Bass.
Tagines are a North African dish named after the earthenware pot it is cooked in. Tagines are like a stew made with meat, fish or vegetables. We are cooking the tagine in a Dutch oven on the stove top.
Ingredients List for the Moroccan Chilean Sea Bass
- Prairie Street Chilean Sea Bass Fillets
- 1 teaspoon ground coriander
- 1 teaspoon turmeric
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 white onion chopped
- 2 garlic cloves minced
- 1 tablespoon of grated ginger
- 1 zucchini cut
- 2 medium tomatoes chopped or one can whole tomatoes
- ½ cup of green olive chopped
- 1 cup of vegetable stock
- 2 tablespoons finely chopped cilantro
- 1 clove garlic, grated
- 1 teaspoon capers, finely chopped
- 1 lemon
- Kosher extra virgin olive oil
- Kosher salt
- Fresh ground black pepper
To Prepare the Moroccan Chilean Sea Bass
Using a paper towel, pat dry the fish fillets to remove any excess moisture. Lightly salt and pepper both sides of the fish. Sprinkle on the ground coriander, turmeric, ground cumin, and smoked paprika. Coat each side like a dry rub.
Heat Dutch oven on the stove top. Add olive oil once the pot is hot. Next sear the fish and get a nice crust on each side. Remove the fish and set aside. The fish should not be cooked through.
Add a bit more oil and sauté the onions. Let the onion soften and become translucent before adding the garlic and ginger. Stir the pot with a wooden spoon.
Add the zucchini and let it cook a few minutes and soften. Stir the zucchini into the onion mixture and now add tomatoes. The liquid from the tomatoes will deglaze the pot. Add a cup of vegetable stock and stir.
Next add the Chilean Sea Bass back to the pot and cover for 4 minutes. The internal temperature for a white fish should be 135F. But we are going to turn off the heat when the fish is at 130°F/54°C. The fish will keep cooking after the heat is off. The external heat will flow to the center of the fish raising the temperature to 135F.
Add the olives and cilantro and squeeze a lemon over top.
Serve with couscous, rice, or crusty bread.

Chef David will be demonstrating direct and indirect heat cooking methods. He will cook three different burgers and a kofta using Prairie Street Kosher Premium ground blends of brisket, veal, and lamb.
Ingredients List for the burgers
- 1 pack Prairie Street Beef Brisket Ground Blend
- 1 pack Prairie Street Veal Ground Blend
- 1 pack Prairie Street Lamb Ground Blend
- Freshly ground black pepper
- Kosher Salt
- Extra virgin olive oil
- 1 Tomato sliced
- 1 Red Onion sliced in rings
- Romaine lettuce
- 6 Brioche Buns or preferred roll
Recipe and Ingredients List for the Sauces
- Harrisa Ketchup for the Veal Burger
- 1 cup of ketchup
- 1 teaspoon of harissa or hot sauce
- 1 teaspoon of tahini
- 1 teaspoon of chopped mint leaves
- Mix in small bowl or ramekin
Tzaziki Mayo for the Lamb Burger
- 1 cup of mayonnaise
- ½ cup of chopped deseeded cucumber
- 1 tablespoon of chopped dill
- 1 teaspoon of lemon juice (1 squeezed wedge)
- ½ clove garlic minced
- Mix in small bowl or ramekin
Special Sauce for the brisket blend burger
- ½ cup of Mayonnaise
- ½ cup of Ketchup
- 1 tablespoon sweet relish
- Mix in small bowl or ramekin
Lemon Tarragon Aioli for kofte
- 1 cup of Mayonnaise
- 5 capers chopped
- 1 lemon zested
- ½ lemon juice ( same lemon as above)
- Teaspoon of tarragon finely chopped
- Mix in small bowl or ramekin
Fire up the Grill Leaving the middle burner off and close the lid
Next make the burger into patties.
First take the veal, add salt and pepper gently mix and form into 2 6oz patties. Remember not to overwork it into puree. A light touch is all that is needed. Place thumb indentation in the center. This will prevent the burger from puffing up in the middle.
Repeat above with the brisket blend.
Repeat above for the lamb but add a teaspoon of olive oil. Lamb is lean and the olive oil will keep it moist.
For the Kofte combine seasoned lamb and beef into a bowl and gently mix. Press the blend around a metal skewer. Try to be even of all sides.
Put all burgers and kofte in the refrigerator for 30 minutes. The cold will firm the meat up.
Back to the grill for indirect and direct cooking.
Direct Heat Method
Over the direct heat place cast iron grill or pan. Make sure it is hot. Add a drizzle of olive oil. Place one veal, lamb and beef burger on the grill and the kofte. 4 minutes later or when the burger appears more than halfway cooked flip them. Make sure they are browned. With the thermometer make sure the burger’s internal temperature is 160 f and remove burgers from the grill.
USDA recommends ground beef be cooked to 160 F/71 C.
Indirect to Direct Heat Method
For indirect cooking place burgers on the middle grate with no burner on. Close lid. Once burgers are more than halfway cooked flip them and close the lid. Before the burgers are fully cooked place them on the cast iron to sear and brown each side.
Place the burgers on the buns and dress with lettuce, tomato, onion and sauce. Grab a napkin and enjoy!

Chef Erica will elevate Tzimmes, a classic holiday stew, with Prairie Street Kosher USDA Prime Short Rib Cubes. This recipe is a sure crowd pleaser and a new holiday must.
Ingredients List for the Tzimmes
- 1 pack Prairie Street USDA Prime Short Rib Cubes
- 1 small onion, diced
- 2 large cloves garlic, peeled and chopped
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon ginger, dried or fresh
- 1 cinnamon stick
- 1/4 teaspoon Harissa or another dried chili flake (optional)
- 1 cup of red kosher wine
- 1 cup of chicken stock
- 2 sweet potatoes, peeled and cut
- 4 dried apricots, diced
- 1/4 cup chiffonade (finely chopped) parsley
- Freshly ground black pepper
- Kosher Salt
- Extra virgin olive oil as needed for cooking
Using a multi-cooker or Instapot
Set to sauté and let heat up
Pat dry short ribs
Salt and pepper on both sides, be generous. It is flavoring the whole dish.
Drizzle olive oil in the pot.
Add short ribs in small batches to brown. Do not overcrowd. We want to build a brown sticky flavor base at the bottom of the pot. Remove short rib cubes. Drizzle more oil. Add onions and stir and coat with oil in the pot. Add garlic and other spices. In this step we are building the flavor base. Heating up spices will awaken them. Add sweet potatoes, apricots and gently stir and coat with onion mix. Next, add short ribs back and any juices. Deglaze with wine. The wine will release all the browned sticky flavoring from bottom of the pot. Add stock and put on lid.
Switch setting in multi-cooker to pressure cook and set time for one hour. Put the top valve on sealing mode. This allows the pressure to build.
After 1 hour the multi-cooker will release pressure gradually and move to a warming setting.
Use caution if opening immediately. Use a towel and set to vent.
Once open, spoon into a bowl and garnish with parsley. Enjoy!

Prairie Street beefy Miami Cut Short Ribs is a sure fire way to elevate this beloved dish and ensure your crew stays satisfied and full. Founder and CEO of Prairie Street, Elliot Moscowitz, shares his crowd-pleasing recipe with Chef Kendra and all of you in this very special segment of Prairie Street Culinary Kitchen.
Ingredients List for the Shabbat Cholent with Miami Cut Short Ribs
- Miami Short Ribs, fat trimmed and cubed between bones
- 1 bag Cholent Beans and Barley mix, rinsed
- ½ teaspoon honey
- 4 Idaho potatoes, peeled and cut into hearty, 3-inch pieces
- 4 Polish Kosher Sausage, cut into 1 to 2 inch pieces
- ¼ cup BBQ sauce or ketchup
- ¼ teaspoon chili pepper flakes
- 3 cloves garlic, crushed
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon dill
- Kosher salt
- Ground black pepper
- Water
To Prepare Your Shabbat Cholent with Miami Cut Short Ribs
The day before you want to make your Cholent, prepare your Cholent beans and barley mix. First rinse the beans and barley, and then, in a large bowl or pot, soak the mixture by fully submerging under water for 24 hours. The water should cover the beans and barley by 2 to 3 inches. Do not discard the soaking water as you will use it in the Cholent. If you are in a time bind, you can always “flash soak” the Cholent mixture by covering them with water in a large microwave safe bowl, wrapping the bowl with plastic wrap, and then cooking it in the microwave for about 10 to 12 minutes.
When you are ready to make your Cholent, make sure you have the right tools! If you are preparing the Cholent for Shabbat, we recommend using a long cook Crock Pot which has a 20-hour cooking feature and will then hold the food warm on its own. This model ensures no electronic tampering is needed by the cook!
Prepare your Crock Pot by pouring about 1 inch of water in the bottom of the basin and then placing a Crock Pot safe plastic bag (or Cholent Bag) in the basin with the top ends out.
Layer your ingredients in the following way: Miami Cut Short Ribs, potatoes, soaked Cholent beans and barley with their water, sausage barley, chili flakes, garlic, honey, onion powder, dill, kosher salt, coarse black pepper, and BBQ sauce. Cover with water to top, cover with lid and fold open ends of bag over lid to secure.
Turn on your Crock Pot for 20-hours at HIGH HEAT. Once the cook is done, the CrockPot will hold at WARM until you are ready to eat.
Once your Cholent is cooked, transfer it from your Crock Pot into a serving bowl. Serve your delicious Cholent with plenty of Miami Short Ribs to family and friends on Shabbat… or not!

Using a paper towel, remove any excess moisture from your kosher hanger steak.
In a medium mixing bowl, season your kosher hanger steak with coarse kosher salt, ground black pepper, lime juice, chopped jalapeno, chopped shallot, cumin, coriander, white pepper, chili powder, and fennel seeds. Mix thoroughly with clean hands, cover with plastic wrap, and let marinate in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to 4 hours.
After your kosher hanger steak is fully marinated, remove from the refrigerator and set aside. Heat a heavy bottom skillet over a medium to high heat with about one tablespoon of kosher extra virgin olive oil. Remove kosher hanger steak from marinade and shake off excess. Sear both sides of your steak. Once seared, reduce heat to low medium and place all of the marinade in the cooking skillet around and under the hanger steak. Cover the skillet with a tight fitting lid and allow to cook for about 10 minutes.
Using your Prairie Street meat thermometer, check the internal temperature by sliding the probe into the thickest part of the meat. You are looking for an internal temperature reading of 125°F. Once achieved, remove from skillet and allow to rest for 15 to 20 minutes. Allow the marinade to continue to cook without the lid on for about 5 minutes so that it reduces down to a hot salsa.
Once well rested, slice your kosher arrachera against the grain in thin slices. Serve as a taco or tostada with the hot salsa!

- 3 cloves garlic, whole
- 6 campari tomatoes, quartered
- 1 tablespoon cumin
- 1 tablespoon turmeric
- 1 tablespoon paprika
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon coriander
- ½ teaspoon nutmeg
- 1 quart Kosher low-sodium beef stock (or kosher veal stock if available)
- 1 cup Kosher dry red wine
- Kosher salt
- Fresh ground black pepper
To Prepare Your Kosher Instapot Shawarma-Spiced Lamb Shanks
Preheat your Instapot to HIGH on the Saute function.
Using a paper towel, remove any excess moisture from your defrosted kosher lamb shanks. Season generously with coarse kosher salt and ground black pepper. Using tongs, carefully sear all sides of your kosher lamb shanks in the Instapot. Once you’ve achieved a nice sear, about 5 minutes, remove the lamb shanks and set aside.
To the Instapot add your red onion, garlic, and campari tomatoes. Using a wooden spoon gently stir the ingredients, being sure to scrape up the fond at the bottom of the pan. Next, add your kosher beef (or veal) stock and kosher dry red wine, and stir to combine. Carefully nestle your seared lamb shanks into the combined ingredients trying to keep the bones down and meat up. Add your dry shawarma spices - cumin, turmeric, paprika, garlic powder, coriander, and nutmeg - to the Instapot and give it a little stir to make sure they’re covering the lamb.
To start the pressure cooking process, lock your lid onto your Instapot and turn OFF the Saute function. Select the Pressure Cook function, on HIGH, and set for 60 minutes. Hit START.
Once the cooking is finished the Instapot will naturally release steam. Be sure to stand out of the way as it does this and allow it to release completely until the pin drops back down into place.
You can serve your Shawarma-Spiced Lamb Shanks in many ways, we suggest serving over simply cooked root vegetables or whipped sweet potatoes with plenty of that flavorful broth!

Chef Kendra’s marinated Kosher Outer Skirt Steak with warm charoset is the perfect quick and decadent meal for Passover. The bold, earthy flavors of garlic and herbs collide with the warmth of apples, cinnamon, wine, and walnuts to create a delicious twist on tradition. Prairie Street Kosher Outer Skirt Steak is the perfect cut to soak in all of these amazing ingredients.
Ingredients List for the Kosher Marinated Outer Skirt Steak with Charoset
- 1 pound Prairie Street Outer Skirt Steak
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 2 bay leaves
- 4-6 sprigs fresh thyme, separated
- 4-6 cloves garlic, finely minced
- 2 honeycrisp apples, diced (skin on or removed)
- 4 medjool dates, finely diced
- 1 cup Kosher dry red wine
- 1 cinnamon stick
- ½ cup walnuts Kosher salt Freshly ground black pepper
To Prepare Your Kosher Marinated Outer Skirt Steak with Charoset
In a large mixing bowl or in a large plastic bag, combine your outer skirt steak, kosher extra virgin olive oil, bay leaves, 4-5 sprigs fresh thyme, minced garlic, kosher salt, and ground black pepper. Mix thoroughly and let marinate covered in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to two hours.
While your steak is marinating, make your charoset. In a medium saucepan over medium heat combine your diced apples, finely diced dates, cinnamon stick, 1-2 sprigs of thyme, kosher red wine, and a pinch of kosher salt. Allow to come to a low boil so the alcohol from the wine burns off. Cook on low for about fifteen minutes, being careful not to let the apples become too soft.
Heat a large, heavy bottom skillet over a high heat. Without adding any oil or fat to the skillet, sear the outer skirt steaks directly from the marinade. Because the pieces of meat from this cut are all different, they will have different cook times. If preferred, you might find it easier to cook those of a similar size at the same time. Cook the steaks in batches being careful to not overcrowd the pan. Using your meat thermometer check for an internal temperature of about 130F. Once reached, remove from pan and allow to rest on your cutting board.
While the meat is resting, prepare your toasted walnuts. Place your walnuts in a small cast iron skillet over a medium heat. Keep the nuts moving in the skillet so they do not burn. Once fragrant and slightly darkened, remove from pan and let cool slightly before chopping.
To serve, slice your marinated Kosher outer skirt steak against the grain and top with your warmed charoset and a sprinkling of toasted walnuts.

Basic Kosher Stuffed Cabbage for Passover
By Chef Kendra
Coming up on The Prairie Street Culinary Kitchen
Chef Kendra will teach us how to make her Kosher Stuffed Cabbage for Passover using Prairie Street Kosher Premium Ground Beef Blend.
Chef Kendra’s recipe for stuffed cabbage is basic by design. Swapping rice for cauliflower allows this recipe to be used during Passover and adds a level of nutrition to the dish. We invite you to try some of our suggested twists and spice blends or create some of your own and share them with us!
Ingredients List for the Kosher Stuffed Cabbage for Passover
- 1 pound Prairie Street Premium Ground Beef Blend
- ¼ cup cauliflower, grated
- 1 egg
- 6 green cabbage leaves, blanched
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
- 1 cup dry Kosher red wine
- 28 oz can whole peel tomatoes
- Kosher salt Fresh ground black pepper
Suggested Twists and Spice Blends
- Instead of Prairie Streets Premium Ground Beef Blend try our Ground Lamb or Ground Veal.
- Try one of our favorite warming spice blends such as the Isreali Baharat Blend or Hawaij Seasoning.
To Prepare Your Kosher Stuffed Cabbage for Passover
Prepare your cabbage leaves by blanching a whole head of green cabbage in boiling water for about 15 minutes. Drain water and remove cabbage. Allow to cool. Once you are able to touch the cabbage, remove and discard the first few outer leaves, then gently remove six leaves, being careful not to rip them (too much). Using a paring knife, remove the thickest part of the stem so it becomes more malleable. See video for demonstration. Set aside.
In a medium mixing bowl combine your Prairie Street Premium Ground Beef Blend with the grated (or riced) cauliflower, one egg, kosher salt, and ground black pepper. Using your hands, thoroughly mix together, being careful not to overwork the meat.
Stuff each blanched cabbage leaf with equal amounts of the ground beef mixture. See video for demonstration on how to roll and secure the ends of the cabbage. Set to the side while you prepare the sauce or wrap and place in the refrigerator until ready for use, up to one night.
Meanwhile, make your tomato sauce. In a large pan over medium heat, saute your thinly sliced garlic in olive oil just until fragrant, about two minutes. Add your whole peeled tomatoes (or tomato puree, if you prefer) and dry Kosher red wine. Season lightly with Kosher salt.
Once sauce begins to simmer gently nestle stuffed cabbage, flap side down, in the sauce. Bring the sauce back to a simmer, place a tightly fitting lid on top, reduce heat to medium-low, and allow to cook through, about 15 to 20 minutes.
Serve your stuffed cabbage with plenty of roasted vegetables for a complete and delicious meal.

Coming up on The Prairie Street Culinary Kitchen
Chef Kendra will teach us how to make her Kosher Top of the Rib "Cheese" Steak Sandwich using Prairie Street Kosher USDA Prime Top of the Rib.
You can purchase your delicious Kosher USDA Prime Top of the Rib here:
https://prairiestreet.co/top-of-the-rib-usda-prime
Sometimes we just crave a good ol’ sandwich! Chef Kendra’s Kosher spin on the Philadelphia Cheesesteak is one not to be missed. Using the not-so-familiar Top of the Rib cut from Prairie Street, she combines onions with the earthy fragrances of white pepper and fennel seed to deepen the flavors of the braise. Topped with non-dairy parve Provolone Cheese - yum! It’s nutty, sweet, meaty, and oh so delicious!
Ingredients List for the Kosher Top of the Rib “Cheese” Steak Sandwich
- ½ Prairie Street USDA Prime Top of the Rib
- Kosher Salt
- Black Pepper
- 1 yellow onion, sliced
- 1 cup water (more if needed)
- ½ teaspoon white pepper
- ½ teaspoon Fennel seed
- 4 Sub Rolls
- 4 Slices Non-Dairy Parve Provolone Cheese Slices (suggested: Daiya Brand)
To Prepare Your Kosher Top of the Rib “Cheese” Steak Sandwich
Preheat a large, high-rim cast iron pan over medium to high heat on your stove top (note: choose a cast iron pan with a tight fitting lid).
Generously season both sides of your Top of the Rib with Kosher salt and ground black pepper. Sear both sides of the Top of the Rib in the pan and then remove to the side until ready.
Meanwhile sautee your onions with the white pepper and fennel seed until translucent and fragrant, about 4 to 5 minutes. Add half of the water to the onions to ensure you scrape up the fond, or little brown bits, from the bottom of the pan. Place the seared Top of the Rib on top of the onions and add the remaining water, bringing the liquid up to about a quarter of the way up the meat. Place the tight fitting lid on the pan and reduce stove top to a medium to low flame and allow to cook for approximately 45 minutes or when the internal temperature reaches approximately 200-205F.
Slice rolls in half and toast your rolls until golden in a toaster or oven.
After the Top of the Rib has rested for about 15 minutes, remove and slice thinly against the grain of the meat. Replace the sliced meat back in with the onions and broth, cover with your Kosher non-dairy parve cheese and reheat until melted.
Build your Philadelphia-style Kosher “cheese” steak sandwiches with the onions, a little broth, and enjoy with your favorite toppings!

You can purchase your delicious Kosher USDA Prime Top of the Rib here:
https://prairiestreet.co/top-of-the-rib-usda-prime
Chef Kendra hones in a bit of nostalgia with this classic dish inspired by her father. Using an electronic pressure cooker (such as the Instapot), the cook time on the typical braise-worthy Top of the Rib is tender within a fraction of the time. What sets this chili apart? Aside from the unctuous meat, a healthy dose of nutrient-rich pureed pumpkin!
Ingredients List for the Kosher Top of the Rib Pumpkin Chili
- ½ Prairie Street USDA Prime Top of the Rib
- ½ onion, diced
- 2 carrots, diced
- 2 ribs celery, diced
- 1 teaspoon white pepper
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1 teaspoon chili powder, more or less depending on heat preference
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 16oz can puree pumpkin, unseasoned
- 1 16oz can crushed tomatoes
- 1 quart low-sodium beef stock
- 1 16oz can pinto beans, drained
- Kosher salt
- Fresh ground black pepper
To Prepare Your Kosher Top of the Rib Pumpkin Chili
Preheat your Instapot or electric pressure cooker to the “Saute” setting.
Slice the Top of the Rib in long, wide strips against the grain, cut into 3 to 4 inch cubes, and generously season with Kosher salt and ground black pepper. In small batches and without crowding the bottom of the pot, sear all of the Top of the Rib and place aside.
With the “Saute” setting still on, cook the onions, carrots, and celery with white pepper, cumin, chili powder, and paprika until fragrant, about 4 to 5 minutes. Add a little beef stock and gently stir the vegetables, lifting any little brown bits from the bottom of the pot. Once fragrant, mix in the remaining beef stock, puree pumpkin, pinto beans, and pureed tomato. Add the seared Top of the Rib to the chili mixture.
Secure the lid into the “Lock” position and turn off the “Saute” function. Turn on the “Pressure Cook” function and set for 70 to 80 minutes. During the first 10 to 15 minutes, pressure will build up in the device and then it will begin to countdown while it cooks. Allow the device to cook the entire time. Once finished, release the pressure in a safe way according to your device's instructions.
Once pressure is fully released, remove the lid. Using tongs or two forks, gently shred the Top of the Rib.
Serve your Kosher Top of the Rib Pumpkin Chili with your favorite toppings such as chopped chives, cilantro, and avocado!

By Chef Erica
Coming up on The Prairie Street Culinary Kitchen
Chef Erica will teach us how to make her Kosher Reverse Sear 30-Day Dry Aged Tomahawk with Roasted Winter Salad using Prairie Street Kosher 30-Day Dry Aged USDA Prime Tomahawk.
When preparing a specialty meat product, sometimes less is best! Chef Erica approaches the exquisite 30-Day Dry Aged USDA Prime Tomahawk by Prairie Street with simplicity and finesse in this reverse sear technique. The highly coveted dry-aging process takes prime meat to a whole new level as it deepens the meaty flavor and increases the silky texture through a controlled time and temperature environment - creating an unparalleled luxury meat experience.
Ingredients List for the Kosher Dry Aged USDA Prime Tomahawk
- 1 Prairie Street Kosher 30-Day Dry Aged USDA Prime Tomahawk
- Kosher salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
Ingredients for the Roasted Winter Salad with Herb Sauce
- 2 endive, halved lengthwise
- 1 large parsnip, peeled and sliced on a bias
- 1 cup seedless red grapes
- ½ cup fresh parsley
- ½ cup fresh mint
- ½ cup fresh dill
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 teaspoon capers
- ½ teaspoon cumin
- ½ lemon, juiced
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
To Prepare Your Kosher Reverse Sear 30-Day Dry Aged USDA Prime Tomahawk
Preheat your oven to 325F.
Generously season all sides of your 30-Day Dry Aged Tomahawk steak with Kosher salt and ground black pepper. Fit a baking rack in the bottom of a heavy roasting pan and place the steak on top. Place the steak in your oven for approximately 35 minutes or until the internal temperature of the steak reads 120F.
Once the 120F internal temperature is reached, remove the steak from the oven and let rest elevated on a separate baking rack. This time, approximately 20 minutes, will allow the internal temperature of the steak to rise to the perfect 125F for medium rare and for air to circulate around the outside of the meat.
Preheat a large heavy-duty pan or cast-iron skillet on the grill or stove top. Carefully sear all around the outside of the steak. Once seared, return to the baking rack and let rest for a final time before slicing and serving.
To Prepare Your Roasted Winter Salad with Herb Sauce
Preheat a clean baking sheet in a hot oven.
Meanwhile, toss your endive, parsnips, and grapes with extra virgin olive oil, coarse Kosher salt, and ground black pepper. Carefully place on the preheated baking sheet and return to a 400F oven. Remove the vegetables and grapes when fragrant and slightly caramelized.
In a small food processor blend together your herbs, capers, cumin, and garlic with a pinch of salt. Slowly drizzle in the extra virgin olive oil and lemon juice while the processor is blending.
Serve the roasted salad with herb sauce drizzled on top next to thick slices of your Kosher Reverse Sear 30-Day Dry Age Tomahawk steak!

What are the different grades of USDA beef including USDA prime?
Watch Chef Erica explain in this quick, fun and informative tutorial!
Not all meat is created equal. Did you know that unless there is a USDA label on your meat, it has not been either supervised or graded by a licensed USDA professional? Only USDA inspectors can ensure the safest highest quality meat and accurate labeling of all finished products. All of Prairie Street meat is labeled under USDA supervision - veal, lamb, while all of our beef is USDA graded. When talking about beef, here at Prairie Street we offer our clients only the highest quality of beef: High Choice, Prime, and now Dry-Aged!
So let’s talk about what all of these mean?
Choice beef has a wide variability in quality - High Choice and Low Choice are not graded by the USDA. Unless you source from a purveyor like Prairie Street who only works with boutique farms, you never know what you are going to get.
And what does Prime mean?
USDA Prime beef is the most superior quality and has the highest amount of marbling, making it the most tender, juicy, and flavorful. Simply put, this is the meat you want if you are looking for the absolute best! Also, USDA Prime beef only comprises of less than 5% of the nation’s meat, which is also why it can be difficult to find and is in such high demand.
Now, Prairie Street has taken it one step further to offer you the absolute best in luxury meats. We are excited to unveil our new kosher 30-Day Dry Aged product line. But this isn’t just dry-aged beef. We are talking dry-aged USDA Prime Beef, Veal, and Lamb - the most amazing and unique cuts all from our state of the art USDA Kosher dry-aged facility.
This is our 30-day dry-aged custom Tomahawk cut. It’s more than 3 inches thick - a behemoth of luxury meat!
What does this dry aged do? Through the process it loses more than 10% of moisture which increases the redness and the flavor of the meat. Basically we are taking an already incredible product and making it into a one of kind luxury experience.

Kosher Veal Breast Confit
By Chef Kendra
Coming up on The Prairie Street Culinary Kitchen
Chef Kendra will teach us how to make her Kosher Veal Breast Confit using Prairie Street Kosher USDA Veal Breast.
In this modified riff of a classic technique, Chef Kendra makes the art of confit something any level cook can master. Using Prairie Street Kosher Veal Breast, this unusual cut is given the royal treatment with aromatics, herbs, pressure, and time. The hardest part about this recipe is finding something to do while waiting before devouring the veal either cold or hot!
Ingredients List for the Kosher Veal Breast Confit
- 5-6 pound Prairie Street Kosher Veal Breast
- 2 cups low-salt chicken broth
- 2 cups low-salt beef broth
- 2 cups dry Kosher white wine
- 5 shallots, peeled
- 1 head of garlic, separated into cloves and peeled
- 1 small bunch of fresh thyme
- 3-4 bay leaves
- 1 tablespoon whole black peppercorns
- Kosher salt
- Ground black pepper
To Prepare Your Kosher Veal Breast Confit
Preheat your oven to 500F.
Generously season both sides of your veal breast with kosher salt and ground pepper. Place bone-side down in a heavy roasting pan and put in 500F oven uncovered for 20 minutes.
Lower oven to 300F.
Remove veal breast from oven and place your braising ingredients into roasting pan with veal: shallots, fresh thyme, garlic, peppercorns, bayleaves, chicken stock, beef stock, and dry Kosher white wine.
Tightly cover the roasting pan with a heavy-duty aluminum foil and place in 300F for 2 ½ hours or until the internal temperature of the veal breast reaches 140F.
Once the desired internal temperature is reached, carefully remove the veal breast from the roasting pan and set on a large cutting board to slightly cool. Meanwhile, strain the braising liquid into a separate sauce pan and let cool. If desired, place on low heat and let reduce by one-third. Be sure to let cool before placing in the refrigerator.
When the veal breast is cool enough to the touch, remove bones while being careful to leave as much of the meat intact as possible. (Note that you can save the bones in your freezer if you want to make veal stock at a later time!) With the boneless veal breast, cut in half and fold onto itself with the fat-side out. Carefully place the two-layer veal breast on a foiled baking sheet, cover tightly with heavy aluminum foil, weigh down the top of it with heavy cans, and place in the refrigerator for 8-24 hours.
On the next day your veal breast confit is ready! Serve either cold or hot. Thinly slice some of the veal breast and serve on crusty bread with a smear of grainy mustard or reheat slices in the braising liquid for a nourishing soup.

Kosher Hawaij Miami-Style Short Ribs
By Chef Kendra
Coming up on The Prairie Street Culinary Kitchen
Chef Kendra will teach us how to make her Kosher Hawaij Miami-Style Short Ribs using Prairie Street Kosher USDA Miami-Style Short Ribs.
You can purchase your Prairie Street Kosher USDA Miami-Style Short Ribs here:
https://prairiestreet.co/beef-short-ribs-miami-cut?_pos=3&_sid=b53a7241c&_ss= r
Do not let the simplicity of this recipe fool you! This flavorful stew transports you to the heart of bustling markets in the Middle East where the aromas of spice and fresh produce fill the air. This Yemenis-inspired stew features Prairie Street USDA Miami-Style Short Ribs. These melt-in-your-mouth cuts are seasoned with a basic Hawaij spice blend and then finished with a bright, zesty schug for some extra zip!
Ingredients List for the Kosher Hawaij Miami-Style Short Ribs
- 1 teaspoon fennel seed
- 2-3 medium yellow onion, quartered
- 5 carrots, peeled and cut in half
- 2 cups campari tomatoes, quartered
- 2-3 cups dry Kosher white wine, Sauvignon Blanc prefered
- ½ cup Hawaij spice blend (see below)
- Freshly chopped fresh parsley, for a generous garnish
For the Hawaij Spice Blend
- 2 tablespoons ground cumin
- 2 tablespoons ground turmeric
- 1 tablespoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Kosher salt
For the Schug
- 1-2 serrano chiles, stems and ribs removed to preferred heat
- 1 cup parsley
- 1 cup cilantro
- 4 garlic cloves
- 1 tablespoon Kosher salt
- 1 tablespoon ground cardamom
- 1 tablespoon ground coriander
- 2 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 1 cup canola oil
To Prepare Your Hawaij Miami-Style Short Ribs
Preheat your oven to 300F.
In a small mixing bowl, combine your hawaij spice blend: ground cumin, ground turmeric, ground black pepper, and kosher salt. Set aside.
In a heavy bottom enamel or cast iron dutch oven, layer in this order: carrots, yellow onions, Miami-style short ribs, chopped tomatoes, fennel seeds, dry Kosher white wine, and enough water to bring just up to the meat. Generously season all of the ingredients with the hawaij seasoning. Cover with the lid and place in the center of the oven for about 2 ½ to 3 hours.
While the stew is braising, make your schug. In a food processor zip together all of the ingredients into a pesto-like consistency. If you prefer a more sauce-like consistency add a bit more canola oil or water. Be sure to scrape the sides of your food processor while blending to ensure everything is processed evenly.
When desired consistency is achieved, transfer to a bowl, cover with plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
After about two hours, check on your stew. Because the Miami-Style short rib is a thinner cut a meat thermometer may not get the most accurate reading, however, you can use the probe to test the meat simply by “puncturing” the meat. If the probe slides in and out easily, the meat is done. This is referred to as a “fork test”.
Once ready, serve the Hawaij Miami-Style Short Ribs over couscous or with a few slices of rustic bread. Spoon a generous dollop of the schug on top and garnish with freshly chopped parsley.

By Chef Erica
Coming up on The Prairie Street Culinary Kitchen
Chef Erica will teach us how to make her Kosher Braised Lamb Shanks with Polenta using Prairie Street USDA Lamb Shank.
Chef Erica’s twist on a traditional braise introduces subtle flavors from the Middle East which compliment the earthiness of our Kosher lamb shanks. As the lamb shanks slowly cook, their collagen and fat give-way to the rich braising liquid yielding a fork tender dish that is silky, fragrant, and simply luxurious.
Ingredients List for the Kosher Israeli Spiced Ground Lamb over Hummus
- 3 pounds Prairie Street Kosher USDA Lamb Shanks
- Freshly ground black pepper
- Kosher salt
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
- 4 cloves garlic, smashed
- 4 shallots, quartered lengthwise
- 1 large carrot, peeled and sliced 1-inch thick
- 1 stalk celery, cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1/2 teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper
- 1 cup dry Kosher red wine
- 3 cups low-sodium chicken stock
- 2-3 sprigs thyme or rosemary
- 8 pitted prunes, quartered
- 1 tablespoon tomato paste
- 1 cinnamon stick
- 1 cup polenta
- 1 tablespoon non-dairy kosher butter
To Prepare Your Kosher Braised Lamb Shanks with Polenta
Preheat your oven to 325F.
Preheat a heavy bottom, high rim skillet over medium to high heat. Meanwhile pat dry your lamb shanks and liberally season with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper. Sear all sides of your seasoned lamb shanks in extra virgin olive oil. Once the desired crust forms, about three minutes per side, remove from the pot and allow to rest on a baking sheet.
Into your hot pot, add the remaining extra virgin olive oil, shallots, carrot, and celery, and allow to caramelize. Add your cinnamon stick, sprigs of either thyme or rosemary, and smashed garlic. After several minutes add the tomato paste to the pot and stir to coat the caramelized vegetables. Add your pitted prunes and return your seared lamb shanks. Deglaze the pot with your Kosher dry red wine and low-sodium chicken stock, bringing the liquid up to about halfway up the lamb.
Braise your Kosher lamb shanks in the covered pot at 325F for about an hour and half, until the meat is fork tender.
For the polenta, bring salted water to a boil in a saucepan and slowly whisk in the dried polenta. To finish the polenta, stir in non-dairy Kosher butter. Transfer the creamy polenta to an oiled sheet pan, spread into an even layer about 1-inch thick. Let cool and then move into the refrigerator to firm up before frying.
Once firm, slice into triangles and gently fry in a small pan.
Serve your Kosher braised lamb shanks with the fried polenta and freshly chopped parsley.

Coming up on The Prairie Street Culinary Kitchen
Chef Kendra will teach us how to make her Israeli Spiced Ground Lamb using Prairie Street Ground Lamb.
Hummus Basar, also known as Hummus with Meat, is an elegant and delicious appetizer to serve at your next dinner party. Chef Kendra prepares her Kosher Israeli Spiced Lamb using a basic Baharat spice that you can prepare and tweak at home! Prairie Street Ground Lamb is a perfectly blended proprietary mixture that balances sweet and earthy without any gamey flavor.
Ingredients List for the Kosher Israeli Spiced Ground Lamb over Hummus
- 2 pounds Prairie Street Kosher Ground Lamb
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 shallots, minced
- 2 pounds ground lamb
- 2 tablespoons baharat spice blend (recipe below)
- kosher salt
- fresh ground black pepper
- ¼ cup chopped fresh parsley
Baharat Spice Blend
- 2 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon ground coriander
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon ground cloves
- 1 ½ teaspoon ground cumin
- ½ teaspoon ground cardamom
- 1 ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1 tablespoon paprika
Ingredients to Serve With
- 16oz plain hummus, either your favorite brand or prepare your favorite recipe
- 4-6 pitas, warmed and cut into wedges
- 1 cucumber, sliced ½ inch thick and on a diagonal
To Prepare Your Kosher Israeli Spiced Ground Lamb over Hummus
Mix together all of the the Baharat Spice Blend ingredients together in a small container. Cover and store at room temperature until ready to use.
In a large skillet, heat the extra virgin olive oil over medium to high heat. Add your minced garlic and shallot and cook until fragrant. Add a generous amount, about 1 to 2 tablespoons, of Baharat Spice Blend. Incorporate with the garlic and shallots and cook until they become soft, about 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and set to the aside.
In the same skillet, add your ground lamb and season with salt. Continue to work with the ground lamb to break it up. Slowly adding water as needed to help keep the ground lamb “stewing” in its own juices.
After about 5 minutes, once the lamb is browned but not thoroughly cooked, reduce the flame to medium and add the spiced garlic and shallots. Mix thoroughly. Cook on a simmer until ground lamb is tender and cooked through, about 7-10 minutes.
To serve, place your hummus (either follow your favorite recipe or purchase plain hummus from your favorite grocer) in a shallow bowl, making a small well in the center. Spoon the Israeli spiced ground lamb - along with its juices - in the center of the hummus and top with fresh chopped parsley. Serve with warm wedges of pita or thickly sliced cucumber.

Preheat your oven to 400F.
Generously season your USDA Prime Cowboy Steak with coarse Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper. Heat a heavy bottom skillet over medium-high heat and add one tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil. Sear both sides of your cowboy steak. Transfer your seared steak onto a sheet tray and place in a 400F oven.
In the same pan you seared your Cowboy steak in, heat one more tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil on medium. Place in the pan your sliced shallot and sliced crimini mushrooms. Cook together with movement in the pan until you gain a sear. Once seared, add one cup Kosher dry red wine and allow the wine to reduce. Add chicken stock to the skillet, bring to a gentle boil and let it reduce. As it reduces, add your sprig of thyme.
Check the internal temperature of Cowboy steak for a reading of 125F. Once reached transfer from roasting pan and allow to rest on a cutting board. Add the extra juices from the roasting pan into your sauce.
Once the sauce is nicely reduced, turn off the heat and stir in the parve vegan butter.
Slice your cowboy steak off of the bone and serve alongside the string bean almondine and topped with your red wine reduced crimini mushroom sauce!
To Prepare your String Bean Almondine
In a medium skillet, melt the parve vegan butter over a medium heat. Once slightly brown, add diced shallot and once slightly translucent add the slivered almonds and let them gently toast. To this, add your pre-cooked string beans to warm up.
Serve and bon appétit!

Chef D will teach us how to make his Kosher Veal Shank Osso Buco.
You can purchase your Prairie Street Kosher USDA veal shank here:
https://prairiestreet.co/veal-shank-osso-bucco-cut
The traditional Osso Buco dish gets a twist with flavors from the Middle East in Chef D’s take on this classic. The slowly cooked, exposed marrow of the cross-cut veal shank makes for a velvet-like broth while the curry paste and red wine impart complexity making it sweet, deep, and oh-so desirable.
Ingredient List for the Kosher Veal Osso Buco
- 2 Prairie Street Kosher Veal Shank Osso Buco
- 2 cups all purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tablespoon parve butter
- 1 tablespoon curry paste
- 3 cloves garlic, whole
- 1 cup dry Kosher red wine
- 2 cups beef stock
- 1 carrot, diced
- 1 white onion, diced
- 2 Roma tomatoes, diced
- 1 tablespoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Kosher salt
To Prepare the Kosher Veal Shank Osso Buco
Preheat your oven to 325F.
Using a large piece of butcher twine, tie the veal osso buco to ensure the meat stays attached to the bone during the cooking process. Generously season both sides of your veal shanks with Kosher salt and crushed black pepper. Dredge both sides of your veal shanks in the all purpose flour and set aside.
Heat a heavy bottom stew pot, such as a cast iron dutch oven, over medium heat and add your extra virgin olive oil. Once oil is slick in the pot, sear both sides of your veal osso buco in the pot. Remove the now-seared veal osso buco and set aside.
Reduce the heat on your pot to low. Add your parve butter, carrots, and onions. Stir the vegetables and then mix in your curry paste and whole garlic cloves. Deglaze your pan with Kosher red wine and beef stock. Stir in the tomatoes and season with Kosher salt and crushed black pepper. Nestle the veal osso buco into the soup, cover with a tight fitting lid, and cook in a 325F oven for two hours.
Once cooked, remove the butcher strings and serve in a shallow bowl garnished with cilantro.

Inspired by her time with family in Baja, Chef Kendra brings us her take on a Mexican birria. The Prairie Street Kosher 2nd Cut Brisket adds the perfect amount of fat to take on the sweet earthy flavors of cumin and cinnamon while punching through the heat of the Serrano chilis and chipotle. A luscious braise that is surprisingly simple to prepare for your next Kosher fiesta!
Ingredient List for the Kosher Baja Braised 2nd Cut Brisket
- 1 Prairie Street Kosher USDA Prime 2nd Cut Brisket, cut in half
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin, divided
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, divided
- 4 cloves garlic
- 1 Serrano chili, chopped (remove seeds for less heat)
- 1 teaspoon fennel seeds
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 8oz can chipotle, divided
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 1 cup Kosher dry red wine, and extra if needed
- 1 16oz can crushed tomatoes
- 1 large white onion, quartered
- 3 carrots, quartered
- 2 ribs celery, quartered
- 1 tablespoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Kosher salt
To Prepare the Kosher Baja Braised 2nd Cut Brisket Preheat your oven to 275F.
Using a paper towel, remove any extra moisture from each piece of your brisket. Generously season each side with Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, and then about a half teaspoon each of cumin and cinnamon. Allow the meat to rest while you prepare the base of the braise.
In your mortar and pestle (or using a small food processor), prepare your garlic cloves with Kosher salt into a rough paste. To that add your Serrano chili, fennel seeds, oregano, ½ teaspoon cumin, and ½ teaspoon cinnamon, and grind to break down and incorporate. Add two to four chipotles with sauce to the mortar and incorporate into paste.
Over a medium flame, heat a heavy bottom cast iron skillet and add your extra virgin olive oil. Sear both sides of each piece of the brisket. Once a nice caramelization has formed on both sides of the brisket, place them both in the skillet and reduce the heat to low-medium.
To the skillet add your Kosher dry red wine, crushed red tomatoes, white onion, celery, and carrots around the meat. Top the brisket with all of your Baja-esque paste. Cover your skillet with a tight fitting lid and cook in the 275F oven for about three to four hours.
Check your brisket for an internal temperature of about 205F. Remove the brisket from the sauce and allow to rest on a cutting board for about 30-40 minutes. For the braise, carefully puree it into a smooth sauce in the skillet using an immersion blender.
Slice your brisket into thinnish slices against the grain and serve over white rice with plenty of sauce, spring onion, cilantro, and wedges of lime.
Serve and bon appétit!

Chef Randy will teach us how to make his Kosher Veal Shoulder Moroccan Stew using Prairie Street Kosher Veal Shoulder.
Ingredient List for the Kosher Veal Shoulder Moroccan Stew
- 1 Prairie Street Kosher Veal Shoulder, cut into one-inch cubes
- 1 tablespoon paprika
- 1 tablespoon ground cumin
- 1 tablespoon ground cardamom
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Kosher salt
- 2 tablespoons vegan parve butter
- 1 medium white onion, diced
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste

- 1 whole garlic bulb, top removed, skins remaining
- 2 carrots, medium diced
- 1 can chickpeas, drained and rinsed
- 1 cup fresh cilantro, rough chopped
- 2 cups spinach
- 1 lemon, juiced
To Prepare the Kosher Veal Shoulder Moroccan Stew
Prepare your Kosher veal shoulder by cutting slices and then dicing the meat into about one-inch size cubes. Be sure to keep the cubes the same size. Place your Kosher veal shoulder cubes in a mixing bowl.
In a small mixing bowl, mix together your spice blend of paprika, ground cumin, ground cardamom, ground cinnamon, black pepper, and Kosher salt. Sprinkle and mix half of this spice blend over the Kosher veal shoulder, reserve the other half of the spice blend for later use.
In a large saute pan over medium to high heat, add the parve butter and caramelize the diced onion. Once the onions begin to develop color, add the tomato paste and cook with the onions. Keep stirring the mixture to prevent it from burning. After a few minutes add your water and gently stir to lift the bits from the bottom of the pan. Add your Kosher veal shoulder, remaining spice blend and stir. With all ingredients combined, add in your whole garlic bulb top-side down. Cover with a tight fitting lid and cook for about 45-minutes over low heat.
After 45-minutes the water should have reduced somewhat and the stew should be thicker. To this add your diced carrots and chickpeas. Cover and cook for about 25 minutes.
Once 25 minutes have passed, remove the lid and stir. The stew should be thicker and simmering more than before. Using long handled tongs, hold the garlic bulb upside down and squeeze to release the now cooked cloves. Discard the skin of the garlic bulb. Stir in your cilantro, spinach, and lemon juice.

You can purchase your Prairie Street Kosher USDA Veal Chop here:
https://prairiestreet.co/veal-tomahawk-rib-chop
This hearty and rustic dish is rich with flavors of fresh herbs and roasted garlic. Basting your Prairie Street Kosher veal chop in the vegan parve butter creates the perfect sear on the meat while maintaining the juiciness and integrity of the veal inside. Serve alongside Chef Randy’s simply glazed carrots for a delicious meal anytime of year.
Ingredients List for the Kosher Vegan Butter Veal Chop
- 1 Prairie Street Kosher USDA Veal Chop
- 1 teaspoon avocado oil
- 4 sprigs fresh thyme, whole
- 3 garlic cloves, whole
- 4 carrots, peeled and cut into obliques
- ½ cup carrot juice
- ½ cup honey
- 1 tablespoon fresh dill, chopped
- ½ lemon, zested and juiced
- Vegan parve butter, divided
- Freshly ground black pepper
- Kosher salt
To Prepare the Kosher Vegan Butter Veal Chop and Glazed Carrots
Season both sides of your veal chop with Kosher salt and ground black pepper.
In a hot sautee pan, heat your avocado oil. Once hot, sear your veal chop allowing it to caramelize on the first side before flipping it to the other.
When the first side of your veal chop is nicely seared, flip the chop in the pan moving it to one side. Add your garlic, thyme, and ½ cup of vegan parve butter. As the parve butter begins to melt, use a tablespoon to baste the juices and fat over the veal chop - including the bone. The thyme and garlic will become fragrant as they toast and roast.
Flip your veal chop one more time to baste the first side of the meat. Take the temperature of your chop in the thickest part of the meat away from the bone and look for 135F. Move the veal chop to a wire rack and place the herbs, garlic, and basting liquid on top. Allow the meat to rest about 10 minutes before serving.
In a saucepan cook your carrots, carrot juice, honey, and 1 tablespoon vegan parve butter over a medium heat with the top on until carrots begin to soften and glaze. About 10-15 minutes.
Remove the lid from the carrots once they are “fork tender” and allow the liquid to slightly reduce and thicken for several minutes. Once glistening reduce your heat and add your fresh dill, lemon zest and juice, and stir. Allow the flavors to combine and once the liquid is almost completely gone, they are finished.
Serve your Kosher vegan parve basted veal chop along side your glazed carrots for a hearty, rustic, and delicious meal.

- Freshly ground black pepper
Ingredients List for Pickled Red Onions
- 1 medium red onion, thickly slic ed
- ⅓ cup red wine vinegar
- 1 teaspoon white sugar
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- ½ lime, juice
To Prepare the Spiced Brisket/i>
In a small mixing bowl, combine your spice mixture thoroughly.
Preheat a large heavy bottom pan on the stove top over medium heat, and preheat your oven to 300F.
Using a paper towel, remove any excess moisture from your thoroughly thawed Prairie Street USDA Prime 2nd Cut Brisket. Cut your brisket in half, and generously coat both pieces with your spice rub mixture.
Once your pan is hot, add extra virgin olive oil and your first piece of brisket with fat side down to sear. Sear both sides of both pieces of brisket allowing a dark, golden crust to form.
Place both pieces of seared brisket into the pan and add chicken stock. Cover with a tight fitting lid and place in a 300F oven. Let the brisket slowly cook for about two hours or when the internal temperature reaches 205F.
Remove your brisket from the oven when then internal temperature reads 205F. On a cutting board, gently shred the brisket with two forks and add all of the shredded meat back into the sauce from the cooking pan.
Plate your saucy, shredded brisket over tortillas with roasted pepper and avocado salsa and pickled red onions.
To Prepare the Roasted Pepper and Avocado Salsa
On a low flame, place your clean yellow or red bell pepper directly onto your stove top. The direct heat will cause the outer skin of the pepper to blister and blacken, creating a smoky, sweet flavor to the pepper. Using tongs, gently turn the pepper until it is dark and blistered all the way around. Remove from the flame, place in a bowl and cover with foil or plastic wrap.
In a medium mixing bowl, add your diced tomatoes, diced avocado, kosher salt, freshly ground black pepper, ancho chili pepper, sugar, lime juice, and cilantro.
Once the bell pepper is fully steamed and cool to the touch, remove the outer skin, stems, and seeds. Julien the roasted pepper and add to the rest of the salsa.
To Prepare the Pickled Red Onion
In a mixing bowl mix combine your sliced red onion, red wine vinegar, sugar, salt, and lime juice. Allow to sit for at least one hour before serving.

Kosher Lamb Shoulder Sous Vide Recipe

Coming up on The Prairie Street Culinary Kitchen
Chef Randy will teach us how to make a Kosher Lamb Shoulder Sous Vide using Prairie Street USDA Lamb Shoulder.
This sous vide Kosher lamb shoulder may take a while to cook, but the result is a succulent and flavorful meat that is oh-so simple to prepare. In Chef Randy’s recipe, the herbs gently accentuate the entirety of the lamb while the sear and olive oil baste at the end highlight its tender earthiness. This is a fabulous dish to wow any guests at your next holiday gathering or fancy dinner party.
Ingredients List for the Kosher Lamb Shoulder Sous Vide
- 1 Prairie Street USDA Lamb Shoulder, bound
- Extra virgin olive oil, divided, plus extra for searing
- 1 sliced garlic clove
- 2 sprigs fresh thyme
- 2 sprigs fresh rosemary
- Kosher salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
Ingredients List for the Isreali Couscous Salad
- 2 cups fresh carrot juice
- 2 cups Israeli couscous
- 2 scallions, thinly sliced
- ½ cup dried apricots, sliced
- ½ cup toasted pistachios, coarsely chopped
- ½ cup dried cranberries
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 1 teaspoon fresh lemon zest
- 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
- Kosher salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
To Prepare the Lamb Shoulder Sous Vide
Set your immersion sous vide circulator at 135F.
Generously season your bound lamb shoulder with Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper. Place in the sous vide bag and add one tablespoon extra virgin olive oil, sliced garlic, fresh thyme, and fresh rosemary.
Create a clean seal for the bag and place in the vacuum-sealer to remove all of the air from the bag. Place your lamb shoulder into the heated water bath and close the lid. Allow to cook gently for approximately three to three and a half hours.
Remove the lamb shoulder from its bag and place on a rack over a cooking sheet to allow any juices to separate. Remove the string from your lamb shoulder. It may unravel a bit, and that is ok.
In a hot skillet, add one tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil. Place the lamb shoulder in the pan on high heat to create a hardy sear on each side. Add more extra virgin olive oil to the lamb while searing to create a luxurious basting liquid.
Remove your lamb shoulder from the pan and place directly onto the cutting board. Because of the sous vide process, you do not need to let your meat rest. Slice immediately and serve your succulent Kosher lamb shoulder to friends and family with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil and a sprinkle of coarse Kosher salt.
To Prepare the Isreali Couscous Salad
In a medium saucepan, bring the carrot juice to a light boil, add the couscous, and season with Kosher salt. Be sure to stir the mixture every so often to keep the carrot juice from foaming over.
In a mixing bowl combine your scallions, apricots, dried cranberries, and pistachios. In the same bowl build your dressing by adding one tablespoon extra virgin olive oil, lemon zest, and lemon juice.
Once tender, but still with texture, strain the Israeli couscous. Add the hot couscous directly to the salad mixing bowl, stir, and season with Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper.
Serve as the perfect side to your Kosher sous vide lamb shoulder.

Take note that the final temperature of the cowboy steak before serving will be about 125F-135F - this will account for both the resting and searing process.
To prepare your hasselback potatoes, use a sharp knife to create ½ inch slits down the length of the potato. Be sure to keep the potato intack by not slicing completely through the body of it.
In a large mixing bowl, shower the bare potatoes with the avocado oil, Kosher salt, freshly ground black pepper, and finely chopped fresh rosemary, ensuring they are evenly covered. Transfer the seasoned potatoes to a medium baking sheet and place in the oven.
Remove your cowboy steak when the internal temperature reads 120F and allow to rest for about 10 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat a medium skillet on the stove top.
Increase the temperature of the oven to about 400F for the hasselback potatoes to finish cooking.
Add 1 tablespoon avocado oil to the skillet and your whole garlic, cut side down. Sear the first side of the steak for 30 seconds, flip and sear the second side of the steak for 30 seconds. Add your vegan butter and fresh rosemary to the pan. Sear each side for an additional 30 seconds each, basting generously with the vegan butter and rosemary sauce. Transfer your cowboy steak to a cutting board and allow to rest for about 10 minutes.
Remove your hasselback potatoes from the oven when crispy and place on platter.
Once rested, remove your cowboy steak from the bone and then slice the meat. Present on a platter with and enjoy with the hasselback potatoes!

Kosher Stuffed Cabbage with Ground Lamb
By Chef Randy
Coming up on The Prairie Street Culinary Kitchen
Chef Randy will teach us how to make Kosher Stuffed Cabbage with Ground Lamb using Prairie Street Lamb that can be purchased here:
https://prairiestreet.co/rack-of-lamb
Stuffed Cabbage is a beloved traditional dish that has been shared at holiday feasts for centuries. By swapping the ground beef for ground lamb, Chef Randy introduces us to a richer version of this family favorite. The luscious fat and juices from the lamb combine with the acidic tomatoes and sweet brown sugar to render a dish so flavorful you won’t want to wait for Succoth to make it!
Ingredients List for the Kosher Stuffed Cabbage with Ground Lamb
- 1 head green cabbage, core removed
- 1 ½ pounds of Prairie Street Ground Lamb
- ½ large red onion, finely minced
- ½ large red onion, sliced
- 2 tbsp fresh parsley, loosely chopped
- ½ cup parboiled rice
- 2 eggs
- 16 ounces tomato sauce
- 16 ounces whole peeled tomatoes
- ½ cup light brown sugar
- 1 lemon, freshly juiced
- Kosher salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
To Prepare the Stuffed Cabbage
Preheat oven to 350F.
Fill a large stock pot about half way up with water, add a generous pinch of Kosher salt, and bring to a boil. Once boiling, use a spider or large slotted spoon to carefully place the whole cabbage into the stock pot. Cook until tender.
To the ground lamb, add the minced red onion, chopped fresh parsley, parboiled rice, raw eggs, Kosher salt, and freshly ground black pepper. Using your hands, thoroughly combine the mixture.
Form loose lamb meatballs the size of tennis balls and set aside on a sheet pan or plate. The mixture will yield about nine lamb meatballs.
Remove the tender cabbage leaves from the boiling water and place them directly into a large bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process. If any cabbage leaves rip during this process you can use them to line the bottom of your pan.
Carefully remove nine nice cabbage leaves to use for the stuffed cabbage, carefully removing any excess core with your knife. With the seam-side down, lay the lamb meatball mixture into the center of each leaf and roll into a package. Place each stuffed cabbage open side down into your pan.
Build the sauce for your stuffed cabbage by scattering your ingredients directly on top: sliced red onion, tomato sauce, and whole peeled tomatoes. Season with Kosher salt, freshly ground black pepper, light brown sugar, and finish with the freshly squeezed juice of one lemon.
Cover your pan with a tight fitting lid and place in a 350F oven for approximately one-hour to one-hour and twenty-minutes. During the cooking process the sauce will slightly reduce and the ground lamb stuffed cabbage will slightly expand.
Serve your ground lamb stuffed cabbage dressed with some of its rich juices for a truly delicious and elevated - yet traditional - meal.

This unique meal reimagines what a typically hunky cut of meat can be and transports you and your loved ones to the countryside of Thailand in 90 minutes. No passport necessary!
Ingredients List for the Beef Short Rib Cubes
- 4-6 Prairie Street USDA Prime Beef Short Rib Cubes
- Kosher salt
- freshly ground black pepper
- extra virgin olive oil
- 1 white onion, quartered
- 2 ribs celery, quartered
- 1 inch fresh ginger, thinly sliced on diagonal
- 2 cups lapsang souchong tea, brewed strong
- water
Ingredients List for the Thai-Inspired Spice Blend
- 4 cloves garlic, peeled
- 3 kaffir lime leaves, destemmed
- 1 medium shallot, diced
- 1 small chili, chopped with ribs and seeds
- 1 tbsp fresh galangal, chopped
- 1 stalk fresh lemongrass, chopped
- ½ tsp fennel seeds
- 2 tbsp pine nuts
- ½ tsp cumin
- 1 tsp lime zest, freshly grated
- 2 tbsp Kosher salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
To Prepare the Beef Short Rib Cubes
Preheat your oven to 250F.
Using a paper towel, remove any excess moisture from your beef short rib cubes and generously season each side with Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper.
Prepare the aromatics for the braise by quartering the celery and white onion, and thinly slicing the ginger.
Heat a large braising pan over high heat and add the extra virgin olive oil. Sear around all sides of the beef short rib cubes in batches to ensure you do not overcrowd the pan. Once all cubes are seared, allow them to rest bone side down on a sheet pan.
Meanwhile, reduce the heat on the pot to low and add the ginger, celery, and white onion. Using a spoon, stir the aromatics to begin lifting some of the brown bits from the bottom of the pot. Add one cup of lapsang souchong tea to deglaze.
Generously top each beef short rib cube with approximately one tablespoon of the Thai Inspired Paste (see process below).
Place the beef short rib cubes bone side down into the braising pot. Add in the remaining lapsang souchong tea and enough water to bring the liquid level to halfway up the meat, being sure not to knock off the paste. If desired, add in the remaining Thai Inspired Paste to the braise. Cover with a tight lid and place in a 250F oven for approximately 90 minutes or until the internal temperature of the cubes reach 200F.
Once cooked, allow the meat to rest in the braising liquid for about 20-30 minutes so the internal temperature of the beef rises to 205-210F.
Serve your Thai Inspired Beef Short Rib Cubes with its broth over white rice and top with chopped cilantro, spring onion, and a squeeze of fresh lime juice.
To Prepare the Thai Inspired Paste
In a marble mortar or food processor, place the garlic, kaffir lime leaves, diced shallot, chili, galangal, Kosher salt, and freshly ground black pepper. Using the pestle, grind all of the ingredients until they begin to break down. Once a thick, rough paste begins to reveal itself, add the fennel seeds, pine nuts, cumin, and fresh lime zest and give the paste a final round of grinding and mixing.
The Thai Inspired Paste can be prepared 3-4 days in advance and stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

Click here to purchase your fresh Prairie Street Veal Shank Osso Bucco
https://prairiestreet.co/veal-shank-osso-bucco-cut
Ingredients List for the Veal Shank Osso Bucco:
- 2 Prairie Street Kosher USDA Veal Shank Osso Bucco
- Kosher salt
- freshly ground black pepper
- 1 Tbsp avocado oil
- 1 large parsnip
- ½ large fennel bulb, de-cored
- 2 ribs celery
- ½ large white onion
- 16 oz can whole, peeled tomatoes
- 16 oz can chicken stock
- ½ cup fresh carrot juice
- 1 head garlic, whole clove, skins removed
- 5 sprigs fresh thyme
To Prepare the Veal Shank Osso Bucco:
Pat dry your veal shanks with a paper towel to remove any moisture then generously season each side with Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper.
Select the “Sauté” setting on your electric pressure cooker and allow the pot to become hot.
Add the avocado oil to the pressure cooker and sear each side of the veal adding in small amounts of additional avocado oil if necessary. Approximately 4 minutes per side.
While the meat is searing, chop your parsnip, fennel, celery, and white onion into large, diagonal pieces ensuring they are relatively close in size so they’ll cook evenly and also maintain some texture throughout the cooking process.
Once fully seared, remove the veal shanks and set aside.
Add the chopped vegetables, whole cloves of garlic, and fresh thyme to the pan and stir with a wooden spoon, beginning to gently incorporate the pan’s fond into the mixture. Season with Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper.
Add the veal shanks, nestling them within the bed of cooking vegetables.
Deglaze the pan by adding the chicken stock, fresh carrot juice, and whole peeled tomatoes with tomato broth, bringing the liquids halfway up the veal shanks.
On your electric pressure cooker, cancel the “Sauté” mode. Seal and lock the lid in place, select the “Pressure Cook” mode and set for 1 hour and 15 minutes. Note that in the beginning the pressure cooker will take about 10 minutes to build heat and pressure within the device, and at the end of the set cook time the device will take about 15 minutes to release the steam and pressure. Be cautious and use a towel to remove the lid once the steam is fully released and the safety features allow you to unveil your Osso Bucco.
Serve your Veal Shank Osso Bucco and stewed vegetables hot and enjoy.

Kosher Smoked Tomahawk Prime Rib Roast
By Chef Randy
Click here to purchase your fresh Prairie Street Prime Prime Rib Roast:
https://prairiestreet.co/prime-rib-roast-3-bone-usda-prime/
Our Three Bone Kosher Tomahawk USDA Prime Rib Roast is a definite crowd pleaser. The extra long bones make for an impressive presentation while the delicate marbling of fat lends itself to Prairie Street Prime’s characteristic juicy, tender, and flavorful meat.
In this recipe, Chef Randy brings our standing rib roast to the next level by slowly smoking it in a pellet grill - allowing the fat to caramelize and the meat to infuse with peaty goodness. With a cut of prime meat this special you don’t need much more than Kosher salt, freshly ground black pepper, and patience! Pairing with simply seasoned and grilled vegetables is the perfect meal for any time of year.
Ingredients List for the Kosher Tomahawk USDA Prime Rib Roast:
- 1 whole Prairie Street Prime Kosher USDA Standing Rib Roast
- culinary string
- Kosher salt
- freshly ground black pepper
Ingredients List for Accompanying Grilled Vegetables:
- 1 lb spring bulb onions, ends trimmed
- 1 lb whole carrots, peeled
- 1 lb small red skin potatoes, parboiled
- extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- Kosher salt
- freshly ground black pepper
To Prepare the Kosher Tomahawk USDA Prime Rib Roast:
Set your pellet grill to 225°F/107°C.
Using your culinary string, tie around the meat between each bone to keep the roast together during the cooking process.
Generously season all sides of the meat with Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper.
Place the Tomahawk Prime Rib Roast directly in the middle of the pellet grill, close lid, and allow to cook until the thickest part of the roast reaches an internal temperature of 125°F-130°F/52°C-54°C, approximately 3 to 3 ½ hours. Be sure to check every hour to ensure the roast does not over cook.
Once the desired internal temperature is reached, remove the roast from your pellet grill and place on a rack to rest. Tent aluminum foil loosely around the meat to allow air flow as the roast rests for 20-25 minutes.
After the roast has completely rested, remove the strings. Slice the meat by first cutting along the side of the bone and then slicing portions of meat between the bones.
Serve slices of your Kosher Smoked Tomahawk Prime Rib Roast with your perfectly grilled vegetables.
To Prepare the Accompanying Grilled Vegetables:
Preheat a large cast iron skillet by placing it directly on a hot grill.
Dress the carrots with extra virgin olive oil, Kosher salt, freshly ground black pepper, paprika, and oregano. Place the carrots in an even layer in the cast iron skillet.
Keep the spring bulb onions whole and dress with extra virgin olive oil, Kosher salt, and freshly ground black pepper. Place directly on the grill.
Close the lid of the grill to allow the carrots and onions to roast for 10-15 minutes.
Season the parboiled potatoes with extra virgin olive oil, Kosher salt, and freshly ground black pepper. Add the potatoes to the skillet with the carrots and finish cooking for 3-5 minutes.
Once the onions are charred, the carrots are caramelized, and the potatoes are sizzling, remove from the grill and serve alongside your Smoked Tomahawk Prime Rib Roast.
Bon appetit!


Kosher Veal Chop with Mushrooms
By Chef Randy
Our show-stopping Frenched 7-Bone Rack of Veal is perfect for an impressive holiday feast or small dinner party. Prairie Street Prime’s veal is well known for its delicate flavor and high marbling which lends to its perfectly tender and juicy consistency.
This recipe by Chef Randy teaches you how to simply prepare veal chops by utilizing the direct and indirect heat zones on your grill. Chef Randy accompanies the veal chop with a savory (and slightly spicy) mushroom-chili blend alongside several blissfully blistered long hot peppers.
- 1 whole Prairie Street Prime Kosher USDA Rack of Veal
- 1 tsp Kosher salt
- 1 tsp Freshly ground black pepper
- 1 tsp Extra virgin olive oil
- ¼ tsp Maldon salt
- 4 cups Shitake and oyster mushrooms, stems removed
- ½ cup Extra virgin olive oil
- 1 Red onion, thinly sliced
- 1 cup Fresno chilis, thinly sliced, deseeded & deveined to heat preference
- 2 whole Long hot peppers
- 4 sprigs Fresh thyme
- 1 whole Lemon
- 1 tsp Non-dairy pareve butter
To Prepare the Veal Chops:
1. Preheat the burners of your grill on high. Once the grill is hot, use a grill brush along the grates to ensure your grill is clean and devoid of residue.
2. With a sharp knife, separate each veal chop by following the rib and cutting down alongside the bone.
3. Arrange the separated chops on a platter, pat dry with a paper towel, and liberally season both sides with Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper.
4. Turn off two neighboring burners of the grill to create your indirect heat zone and leave on two neighboring burners to create your direct heat zone.
5. Place each veal chop over the direct heat portion of the grill. The chops will begin to sizzle and smoke as the searing and caramelization process creates and locks in flavor.
6. Once the first side is seared, flip the veal chop and move it to the indirect portion of the grill. This will allow the veal to cook gently with residual heat, keeping it out of risk of charring and over cooking.
7. Allow the veal to cook with the grill lid closed.
8. After about 10 min., check the internal temperature of the veal by placing the probe of an instant-read meat thermometer in the thickest part of the chop. For medium, the thermometer should read between 130F-135F.
9. Once the desired internal temperature is reached, remove the veal chops from the grill and place on a cutting board to rest for 5-10 minutes. Protip: resist the temptation to cut directly into the meat. The resting time is critical and allows the juice to stay in the meat and not spill out on your cutting board.
10. Once rested, carve the veal chop by separating the meat from the bone and slicing the chop into 1-inch slices.
11. Plate both the sliced chop and its rib bone alongside the mushroom-chili blend and charred long hot peppers (see below). Finish with a sprinkle of Maldon salt and a final drizzle of extra virgin olive oil. Serve immediately and enjoy!
To Prepare the Mushroom-Chili Blend and Charred Long Hot Peppers:
1. Preheat a large cast iron skillet by placing it on the indirect heat portion of the grill.
2. Remove the stems from the shiitake and oyster mushrooms. Slice the shiitake caps into ½-inch strips with a knife and gently separate the cluster of oyster mushrooms by using your fingers.
3. In a large mixing bowl combine the mushrooms with extra virgin olive oil, Kosher salt, and freshly ground black pepper. Mix to coat and set aside.
4. Thinly slice a medium red onion and set aside.
5. Slice the fresno chilis in half vertically to remove the seeds and veins, then thinly slice the chili horizontally.
6. Place the mushrooms, red onion, and chilis in the hot skillet and (using an oven mitt) move the skillet over to the direct heat.
7. Close the lid of the grill and allow the blend to cook.
8. Meanwhile, prepare the long hot peppers by drizzling them with extra virgin olive oil and seasoning with Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper.
9. Place the long hot peppers on the direct heat portion of the grill being mindful to turn them to char all around. Remove the long hot peppers once fully blistered and place on a serving platter.
10. Once the mushroom-chili blend caramelizes, about 5-7 minutes, add fresh thyme to the skillet.
11. After several minutes the blend should be cooked down and fragrant. Add the non-dairy pareve butter and stir together allowing the pareve to melt and pull the ingredients and flavor together.
12. Remove the skillet from the grill and place the mushroom-chili blend in a medium bowl. Add the freshly squeezed juice from the lemon and drizzle with extra virgin olive oil. Mix and serve alongside the Prairie Street Prime veal chop.

How to Make a Kosher Frenched Veal Rack
By Chef Randy
Our show-stopping Frenched 7-bone rack of veal is perfect for an impressive holiday gathering. Its mild, delicate flavor goes well with just about anything. For this recipe, we rub the veal with a mixture of Dijon mustard, chopped shallots, chopped parsley, and olive oil before roasting it on the grill using the indirect cooking method (no fire directly below the meat). This allows for gentle, even cooking and no flare-ups. See how Chef Randy roasts this rack to juicy perfection — and then try it yourself!

Season the veal with salt and pepper
Mix the mustard, shallot, parsley, and olive oil, and brush all over the veal
Roast indirect to 130°F/54°C internal temp (test the thickest part away from bone)

Kosher Competition Smoked Whole Beef Brisket
By Chef Randy
In this video, Chef Randy smokes a Prairie Street Prime kosher whole beef brisket. Whole brisket contains both the first and second cut of the meat. The first cut is the lower, leaner half of the brisket (also known as “the flat”). The second cut is laced with fatty marbling, making it more robust in flavor and seriously tender when cooked. Competition-trimmed means we’ve removed most of the outer layer of fat — which helps to create a crispy crust and maximize flavor. Our whole cut is great for smoking (barbecuing) over low heat, where it slowly builds that delicious bark and a soft, juicy interior.
Ingredients
- Whole Competition Brisket
- 2 tbsp Kosher salt
- 2 tbsp coarse ground black pepper
- 1 cup apple cider vinegar
- 1 cup light beer
- Butcher paper
- Spray bottle
Recipe
Season brisket with the salt and pepper, generously covering both sides
Place on roasting rack over a sheet pan and let rest in fridge overnight
Set smoker to 225°F/107°C.
Place brisket in the center of the smoker and close the lid
Spritz the brisket every hour with the apple cider and beer mixture
Cook brisket to an internal temperature of 165°F/74°C.
Once brisket reaches 165°F/74°C, remove from smoker and completely wrap with butcher paper
Place brisket back in the smoker and cook to an internal temperature of 200°F/93°C.
Remove from smoker and allow to rest for 1 hour wrapped in paper
Remove brisket from butcher paper, cut in half, and slice the brisket AGAINST the grain
Serve and enjoy!
