This is one of those no-brainer dinner recipes where everything gets dumped into your slow cooker, and you don’t even have to think about it for 8 hours! I love my slow cooker because when the cooking time is done, it just switches to a warm setting. This means I don’t have to be home when the end buzzer goes off. These braised short ribs turn out a meat that is pull-apart tender with a delicious sauce too.

About Short Ribs:

You should be able to buy bone-in short ribs at your regular market. If you cannot locate short ribs at your market, ask your butcher. Often times, he will have some in the back that he can cut for you- and he can trim off a lot of the fat too!

Ingredients needed:

short ribs kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper dry red wine canned diced tomatoes sliced mushrooms onion garlic Italian parsley bay leaves

How to make Braised Short Ribs:

The full, printable recipe is at the end of this post.

Using a slotted spoon, transfer the ribs to serving platter. Discard the parsley and bay leaves. Spoon the fat off the top of the sauce in the slow cooker insert and discard.

Spoon the sauce over the ribs. Be sure to serve these braised short ribs with plenty of crusty bread so you can use it to soak up all of the delicious juices. Enjoy!
