Instructions
- Heat the olive oil in a large pan over medium high heat.
- Place half of the short ribs in a single layer in the pot and season with salt and pepper.
- Cook for 4-5 minutes per side or until golden brown. Repeat the process with the remaining ribs.
- Remove the meat from the pan and cover with foil to keep warm.
- Add the onions and carrot to the pan. Season the vegetables with salt and pepper to taste. Cook for 4-5 minutes or until just tender and starting to brown. Remove the vegetables from the pan and cover to keep warm.
- Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds, stirring constantly.
- Add the red wine and bring to a simmer. Cook until the liquid is reduced by half, about 3-4 minutes.
- Stir in the beef broth and tomato paste, then simmer for another 2-3 minutes.
- Slowly whisk in the flour and cook for 3 minutes or until the sauce starts to thicken.
- Place the red wine sauce in a slow cooker. Add the short ribs, vegetables, thyme and bay leaf. Stir to combine.
- Cover and cook on low for 8 hours.
- Remove the ribs from the crock pot, then arrange them in a serving dish. Spoon the sauce over the top of the ribs. Add salt and pepper to taste if desired. Garnish with thyme sprigs, then serve.
