Beef Short Ribs (Slow Cooker)

By Thom7747

These are fall off the bone tender and the taste is impressive. I have prepared these often for friends and family who always comment how great they are.

Ingredients

• 1/3 cup flour
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon pepper
• 2 to 3 lbs boneless beef short ribs
• 1/4 cup butter
• 1 cup chopped onion
• 1 cup beef broth
• 3/4 cup red wine vinegar
• 3/4 cup brown sugar
• 1/4 cup chili sauce
• 2 tablespoons catsup
• 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
• 2 tablespoons minced garlic
• 1 teaspoon chili powder

Preparation

Step 1

1. Put flour, salt and pepper in a bag.
2. Add ribs and shake to coat.
3. Brown ribs in butter in a lg skillet.
4. Put in slow cooker.
5. In same skillet, combine remaining ingredients.
6. Bring to a boil, stirring.
7. Pour over ribs.
8. Cover and cook on low for 9 hours.

Notes: I follow the recipe as is except I reduced the salt by half since the broth and Worcestershire Sauce both have salt in them. I used unsalted butter so it did not add any additional salt to the recipe. I also recommend using a good red wine vinegar when cooking with the slow cooker as I have found the Regina brand and some other cheap brands to be bitter cooking so long.
