Beef Short Ribs Recipe Slow Cooker

Slow Cooker Beef Short Ribs: A guide to creating restaurant-worthy, fall-off-the-bone tender short ribs with minimal effort.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 pounds beef short ribs (about 8 ribs)
  • 1 teaspoon salt & 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 3 cups beef broth
  • 1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder & 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 sprig fresh rosemary

Instructions

  1. Prep the meat: Pat those ribs dry with paper towels, then season generously with salt and pepper on all sides.
  2. Get a good sear: Heat up a large skillet until hot, and sear each side of the ribs for about 60 seconds until browned.
  3. Mix your magic potion: In your slow cooker, combine the beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, and onion powder.
  4. Arrange your ribs: Place seared ribs into the liquid, bone side up if bone-in, and add the rosemary on top.
  5. Walk away and let magic happen: Put the lid on, set your slow cooker to low, and cook for 6-8 hours.

Notes

  • Choosing high-quality ribs will make or break your dish.
  • Don’t throw away the leftover cooking liquid; use it for gravy or a reduction.
  • Leftover ribs taste even better the next day after the flavors meld overnight.
  • For slow cookers running cool, start on high for the first hour, then switch to low.
