Tender and flavorful Crockpot Beef Short Ribs slow-cooked to perfection in a rich, savory sauce. Perfect for a comforting and hearty meal.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 lbs beef short ribs
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • 1/2 cup red wine (optional)
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp tomato paste
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • 1 tsp dried rosemary
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 2 tbsp cornstarch (optional, for thickening)
  • 2 tbsp water (for cornstarch slurry)

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the short ribs on all sides until browned. Transfer to the crockpot.
  2. In the same skillet, sauté onions and garlic until fragrant, about 3-4 minutes. Add to the crockpot.
  3. In a bowl, whisk together beef broth, red wine (if using), soy sauce, tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce, thyme, rosemary, salt, and pepper.
  4. Pour the mixture over the short ribs in the crockpot.
  5. Cover and cook on low for 8 hours or high for 4-5 hours, until meat is tender and falls off the bone.
  6. If you prefer a thicker sauce, mix cornstarch and water to make a slurry. Stir it into the crockpot 30 minutes before serving and cook on high until thickened.
  7. Serve hot with mashed potatoes or your favorite side dish.

Notes

  • Red wine adds depth of flavor but can be replaced with more beef broth.
  • Skimming excess fat off the top before serving is recommended.
  • Great for meal prep and tastes even better the next day.
