Fork Tender Short Ribs Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the Short Ribs

   Season the beef short ribs with salt and black pepper on all sides.

2. 2

   Sear the Meat

   In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the short ribs and sear them until browned on all sides, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.

3. 3

   Sauté the Vegetables

   In the same skillet, add the chopped onion, carrots, and celery. Sauté until the vegetables are softened, about 5-7 minutes. Add minced garlic and cook for an additional minute.

4. 4

   Deglaze the Pan

   Pour in the red wine and scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet. Allow the wine to simmer for about 3 minutes.

   Combine Ingredients

   In a slow cooker, add the seared short ribs, sautéed vegetables, beef broth, tomato paste, bay leaves, and dried thyme.

6. 6

   Slow Cook

   Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours or until the ribs are fork-tender.

7. 7

   Serve

   Remove the bay leaves, garnish with chopped parsley, and serve the short ribs with the rich sauce.
