3. Sear on all sides until browned.
4. Remove meat and set aside.
5. Add 1 more tablespoon of oil and vegetables into the Dutch oven.
6. Saute for about 8 minutes. They won't be done. You're just getting them started and they'll finish cooking with the meat.
7. Pour in beer to deglaze the pan. Cook 3 or 4 minutes to slightly reduce.
8. Then add beef stock.

12. Simmer on medium low for about 2 hours, until ribs are pull apart tender and vegetables are soft.

14. Spoon beef short ribs and vegetables over tortellini.
15. Grate fresh Parmesan or Romano cheese over top and garnish with herbs.
