Ingredients
- 2 pounds of boneless beef short ribs
- Salt and black pepper
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 cups beef broth
- ¼ cup tomato paste
- ½ teaspoon fresh thyme
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
Instructions
- Season the meat with salt and black pepper. Heat the oil in a Dutch oven over high heat. Add the short ribs and sear the meat on all sides, 10 to 12 minutes total.
- Pour in the broth. Stir in the tomato paste, thyme, and garlic powder, and sprinkle in salt and black pepper to taste. Reduce the heat to maintain a simmer, cover, and cook for 2 hours.
Notes
Don't skimp on the beef quality. Select a high-grade cut and make sure it is well-marbled with fat for maximum flavor.
Brown your beef short ribs before adding them to the slow cooker or Dutch oven. This helps create a flavorful saucy base for your dish.
Season the meat generously with salt and pepper before browning them in a hot pan on all sides. This will create a nice crust that seals in all the juices.
