Meltingly tender meaty dishes like this one are made for cold nights. And while this would make a perfect Sunday supper, it's actual possible any night of the week, thanks to your slow cooker! That's right, this recipe truly benefits from cooking all day. Beef short-ribs are extremely flavorful, but to experience the full depth of their savoriness, you need time. Time, plus a prep technique we consider key to making the best possible slow-cooker meats: browning. Browning the short ribs, onions and garlic and deglazing the pan might sound cumbersome, but it's actually quite efficient, since the deglazing leaves you with a clean pan, and more importantly, the whole process amounts to next-level flavor. Flavor so dynamite, we think this recipe is destined to become a part of your cold-weather dinner rotation!
