Easy Slow Cooker Ranch Short Ribs Recipe

Ingredients

• 4 pounds bone-in beef short ribs
• 1 teaspoon Hidden Valley® Original Ranch® Salad Dressing & Seasoning Mix
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 onions, quartered
• 1 cup red wine
• 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
• Kosher salt and ground black pepper, to taste

Instructions

1. Place short ribs in a resealable plastic bag; sprinkle generously with ranch dressing seasoning mix for maximum flavor. Seal the bag and toss until the short ribs are evenly coated in the ranch mixture.
2. Heat olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add short ribs in batches, being careful not to overcrowd the pot; brown them on all sides (approximately 10 to 12 minutes per batch). Transfer the browned short ribs to your slow cooker.
3. Arrange sliced onions around the short ribs in the slow cooker. In a separate bowl, combine red wine and mustard; pour this flavorful mixture evenly over the ribs and onions. Cover the slow cooker securely.
4. Cook on Low heat for 8 hours or on High heat for 4 hours, or until the short ribs are fall-off-the-bone tender. Before serving, skim as much excess grease as possible from the top of the sauce. Season generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
