Chile Short Ribs (Slow Cooker)
When it comes to beef, we order by a quarter beef from JX Ranch natural Beef every fall. The cows are grass-fed from start to finish. No growth hormones or antibiotics. And the flavor is fabulous! The other plus side is we get cuts of beef we don't really have experience with - one being short ribs. I first tried this recipe a few years back, and then I got busy and the short ribs hid in the deep freeze until I had several packages and knew it was time to cook them up. You start off with onions, carrots and beer in the bottom of a slow cooker. Pull out your short ribs - I like to trim the extra fat - and rub some salt and pepper in to both sides. Have your pan (I use my big cast iron skillet) nice and hot with some olive oil on the bottom, then sear all sides of the ribs, placing the seared ribs into the crock. Once they are all in, add the sauce on top, put the lid on, and cook away! Serve it up with some kind of potatoes and veggi...
