Birkapörkölt is a wonderful mutton stew from the Hungarian Great Plain, it is simplicity personified, slow-cooked mutton with loads of onions and paprika that's finished with a bit of offal.
There's much more to these offal-based meatballs than the unfortunate double meaning of their name.
This recipe is AIP-friendly

Over the years, this recipe which was first posted in 2020, has been our most popular recipe of all time. It makes me so happy that folks are discovering the wonderful health benefits - and deliciousness of grassfed beef live. I want to share the recipe that took me from a liver hater to a liver lover! I think the world’s divided into three groups when it comes to liver: A small minority who love it. A slightly bigger group who have tried it and don’t like it. A vast majority who haven’t tried it (and are convinced they won’t like it). Which group are you in? The reviews on our liver shopping page are a testament to the love affair many people have with liver. I used to be in the middle group - but I recently realized my negative bias was based on two things - I wasn’t cooking it right and I hadn’t had my own Heartstone Farm grass-fed beef liver. SHOP HEARTSTONE FARM 100% GRASS FED BEEF LIVER - Over 80 5-star reviews So now I’m in group #1 - and I’m here to share how I now cook beef liver and why it made all the difference. Here’s the biggest thing I can share - don’t overcook it. That right there will probably turn you from a hater to a lover. You want a bit of pink - no more, no less. The ingredients for this recipe are bacon, milk, onions, and butter - and salt. Don’t skimp on the salt. (By the way, salt is not nearly as bad as you might have thought.) Ingredients 1 pound Heartstone Farm grass-fed beef liver SHOP HERE 4 strips bacon 3 tbsp pasture butter 1 large onion 4 large garlic cloves 10 ounces sliced button mushrooms Instructions Unwrap the beef liver and lay flat on a layer of paper towels. I like to cook it and serve it sliced up. Soak the liver in a dish or bowl of milk for 30-60 minutes. This is an important step in removing the bitter flavor from the liver. Salt and pepper the liver generously, and leave it out at room temperature while you prepare the remaining ingredients. Pat the liver dry. Dice bacon and fry in 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet. When crispy, remove the bacon bits from the pan and drain on paper towels. Leave the grease and butter in the pan. Slice onion roughly. Slice the mushrooms. You want your pieces of onion to be similar in size to a bite of liver. Saute the mushrooms and onions on low in bacon grease and butter until they start to soften but the onion is not yet translucent. Add garlic for 30 seconds. Put the onion, mushrooms and garlic to one side of the pan, away from heat. Turn the heat up to medium and add the last tablespoon of butter When the butter is melted, add half the liver slices. Cook until you start to see the edges cooking. They’ll turn from red to gray. When that border is a few millimeters thick (2-3 minutes, or so), flip them over. Fry on the second side for another 2-3 minutes. Until you know how you like your liver, the best way to check is to cut into it. If it’s still red, keep flipping until it is just barely cooked through. You want just a tinge of pink so it’s cooked but still tender Place liver on a platter and cook remaining liver in the same fashion. Toss the bacon bits and smother the liver with them. Add the onions and mushrooms. Serve! I like to have liver about once a month. It’s such a healthy meat, and I think you’ll love it - if you cook it right.

Place a large cast-iron skillet or similar over high heat. Season the slabs of beef ribs with liberal amounts of salt and pepper. Once the skillet is hot add a little cooking oil, and sear the beef ribs on both sides until dark and golden. Remove and place the slabs of ribs in a large roasting dish. Place the skillet back on the heat, and add a little more oil. Once up to heat again add the onion, celery, carrot and garlic. Cook these vegetables until they get plenty of color, then toss in the Thyme and Bay leaves, followed by the tomato paste, red wine and stocks. Bring up to the boil, scraping any crusty bits off the bottom of the skillet, then pour all over the beef ribs sitting in the roasting dish. Cover with tin foil, then place in the oven and cook for 3-4 hours, checking the ribs after 3 hours. The ribs are ready when the meat is soft and pulls off the bone easily. Remove from the oven, let the ribs cool in the stock completely before carefully removing and refrigerating. Heat up the cooking liquid in a saucepan, strain and discard the vegetables and solids. Refrigerate the stock until required. To make the pumpkin pureé, preheat your oven to 200deg. Place the pumpkin in a sized a bowl with the cooking oil and smoked paprika, then season with salt and pepper. Toss together. Tip the ingredients into a roasting dish and roast for 40 minutes, until the pumpkin is caramel in colour and softened through. Pour over the maple syrup, and cook for a further 5 minutes. Remove from the oven, and scrape the contents of the dish into a large saucepan. Place over medium-low heat, then add the cream. Simmer for 10 minutes or so, then use a stick blender to puree until silky smooth. If it’s a little dry or thick add a bit more cream or a little water. Taste and add more seasoning if necessary. Refrigerate until required. To make the fried chilli and orange breadcrumbs, place a medium-large frying pan over medium-low heat. Once hot add 2 tablespoons of oil, followed by the panko breadcrumbs, fine orange zest and juice. Toss and stir the breadcrumbs until they turn a lovely golden colour. Remove the pan immediately and spread out on a tray to stop the cooking. Place the pan over high heat. Add the remaining oil and, once hot, add the chili. Fry for 1-2 minutes, or until the chili begins to go golden brown around the edges. Remove with a slotted spoon and place the crispy fried chillies on kitchen paper to drain and let cool. Combine the fried chilli with the orange breadcrumbs and toss through the finely chopped parsley. Season and set aside Preheat your over to 165deg Place the short rib stock in a saucepan and place over medium heat. Bring up to the boil, then turn down to a simmer. Allow to reduce to sauce consistency. Take the slabs of ribs and, while cold, slice between the bones to create individual ribs. Place these in a roasting dish, pour over the reduced sauce, cover with tinfoil and place in the oven for 30 minutes, until the short ribs are hot through. Heat up the pumpkin pureé in a saucepan over low heat, stirring as you go, or microwave until hot. To serve, divvy up the puree onto warm plates, add a rib plus some of the sauce, then finish with a liberal sprinkle of fried orange and chili bread crumbs. A green salad or a simply cooked green vegetable would make a great bed partner. Eat now.
