Slow Cooker Beef Short Ribs
Description
The recipe starts by browning beef short ribs in a hot skillet to develop a golden crust, enhancing flavor and texture. The ribs are transferred to a slow cooker along with beef broth, red wine, salt, and pepper, then cooked on high for approximately six hours until the meat is tender and easily falls from the bone.
After cooking, the ribs are removed and the braising liquid is simmered in a skillet until thickened to a sauce consistency, which is poured over the meat when serving. This method yields rich, tender short ribs with a balanced savory and wine-accented flavor.
Ingredients
- 4 lbs beef short ribs cut into 3 x 2 inch pieces
- 3 cups beef broth
- 1 cup red wine
- 1 tsp salt adjust to taste

- Add Beef Short Ribs to the slow cooker. Cook on High for about 6 hours or until the meat is tender.
- Remove ribs. Move the liquids to a skillet and simmer for about 15 minutes or until the liquid reaches desired thickness. Serve over Beef Short Ribs. Enjoy!
