Crock Pot Short Ribs

CrockPot Short Ribs


Easy Red Wine Braised Short Ribs are made in the CrockPot for a simple dinner that's rustic and cozy. So simple to make.


I uses a little over 2 lb short ribs.  Instead of beef stock, I used Beef Stew powder mix & brown gravy mix and did not use the bay leaf, rosemary & thyme


Author: Kellie Cost: $14 !!!

 6 lbs short ribs cost at least $8.00 lb. 6 lb = $48.00  $42.00 @ $7/lb 

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons flour
  • 6 pounds beef short ribs cubed
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 cups chopped onion
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 tbsp tomato paste I added this to the recipe as well as the diced tomatoes
  • 1 cup dry red wine
  • 1 15 ounce can diced tomatoes
  •  brown gravy mix 
  •   Beef Stew mix 
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons Pepperbelly Pete's Zippy Zap sauce (I used Valentina pepper sauce)
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Season the flour with 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt and pepper.
    Heat the oil in a large skille.

  • Dredge the short ribs in the flour to coat on all sides.

  • Working in batches, brown the short ribs in the skillet until golden brown and crusty on all sides. Transfer to a platter and keep warm.

  • Drain off all but 2 tablespoons of fat and return the skillet to the heat.
    Add the onions to the pan cooking until softened, approximately 5-7 minutes.
    Stir in the garlic and cook for an additional minute.
  • Add the tomato paste and stir to coat. Cook for 2-3 minutes or until a deep mahogany color.
  • Stir in the red wine to deglaze the pan and scrape up the brown bits on the bottom with a wooden spoon. (The brown bits are called "fond" and add rich flavor to the sauce.)
  • Transfer the short ribs to a slow cooker and pour the vegetable mixture over the short ribs.
  • Stir in the diced tomatoes..
  • Cover the slow cooker with the lid and cook on high for 4 hours or low for 6-7 hours.
  • Before serving, skim the fat off the top using a ladle and discard the fat. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Serve the short ribs with the sauce.
