Delicious Short Ribs from the Slow Cooker

I found this terrific slow cooker short rib recipe on wordstoeatby and found boneless short ribs on sale Saturday at the grocery store.

Great combination.  They turned out so well, are super easy to make and the rich, comforting smell fills the house.  Yum.

Red Wine Braised Short Ribs of BeefFrom Not Your Mother's Slow Cooker Cookbook
Serves 4

1 cup red wine [I used an Italian table wine]
2/3 cup ketchup
3 tablespoons soy sauce
2 cloves garlic, crushed
2 tablespoons dark brown sugar
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
4 pounds beef short ribs
2 medium-sized yellow onions, chopped

Combine first six ingredients (through black pepper) in the slow cooker and stir. Add the ribs, submerging them in the sauce. [In my oval, this required cutting the ribs into one-bone widths, then dunking each end in the sauce. I cooked them with the bones positioned upright.] Scatter the onions over the ribs, cover, and cook on low until the meat starts to separate from the bone, 7 to 9 hours.
