Indulge in the rich and savory flavors of these Crockpot Beef Short Ribs! This dish is perfect for a cozy dinner and requires minimal effort. Just let your slow cooker do the work! Here’s how to make it:
Ingredients:
3 lbs bone-in beef short ribs
3 cups baby carrots
2 cups mushrooms, sliced
2 cups beef broth
1 cup red wine (optional; see notes)
2 tablespoons tomato paste
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 bay leaf
8 sprigs fresh thyme
1 tablespoon garlic, minced
Salt to taste
Pepper to taste
Instructions:
Prepare the Short Ribs:
Season the beef short ribs generously with salt and pepper on all sides.
Sear the Ribs (Optional):
In a large skillet over medium-high heat, melt 1 tablespoon of butter. Sear the short ribs for about 3-4 minutes on each side until browned. This step adds extra flavor but can be skipped if you're short on time.
Add Ingredients to the Crockpot:
Place the baby carrots and sliced mushrooms at the bottom of the crockpot.
Add the seared short ribs on top of the vegetables.
Mix the Sauce:
In a bowl, combine the beef broth, red wine (if using), tomato paste, minced garlic, and remaining 2 tablespoons of butter. Mix well and pour over the short ribs and vegetables in the crockpot.
Add Herbs:
Add the bay leaf and fresh thyme sprigs to the crockpot.
Cook:
Cover and cook on low for 8-10 hours or on high for 4-6 hours, until the beef is tender and falls off the bone.
Serve:
Once cooked, remove the short ribs and vegetables from the crockpot. Discard the bay leaf and thyme sprigs.
Serve the short ribs with the vegetables and spoon some of the cooking liquid over the top.
