I also call this Slow Cooker Beef Short Rib Chili my football watching chili! It's thick, hearty and full of rich delicious meat that will keep you full for hours!
Season ribs on both sides with a sprinkle of salt and pepper
Place ribs in hot skillet and let sear for about 1 to 2 minutes on each side until lightly browned and crusted
Remove ribs to slow cooker and add onions and garlic to pan
Let cook another 2-3 minutes while stirring until they start to brown
Add about 1/4 cup of the broth to the pan and use spatula to scrape off any remaining meat
Add the onion, garlic and other contents of pan to slow cooker
Add all remaining ingredients and stir to combine
Cover and cook on low for 7-9 hours
Remove ribs and shred meat from bones (should shred easily with a fork)
Discard bones and return meat to slow cooker
Stir to combine well and add additional seasonings or salt and pepper to taste as desired
Notes
I cooked this in my 5 quart slow cooker on low for 8 hours (then reheated on my grill at the tailgate the next day)Recipe adapted from: Cooking in Stilettos
