Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 pounds beef short ribs
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- ½ teaspoon pepper
- 1 large sweet onion, thinly sliced
- 8 ounces baby Bella mushrooms, sliced

- 2 teaspoons garlic, minced
- 3 cups beef broth
Instructions
- Season short ribs on all sides with salt and pepper.
- Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add seasoned ribs to the hot oil (bone side up first)and sear on each side for 1-2 minutes, until browned. (The ribs will not be cooked through.)

- Add garlic and cook for one more minute.
- Increase the heat to high and pour in the beef broth, stirring often and scraping up the brown bits from the pan. Bring the mixture to a boil and then reduce heat to medium. Simmer for 5 minutes, stirring and scraping the sides as needed.
- Pour over the ribs in the crockpot.
- Cover and cook on low for 7-8 hours. Or, cook on high for 3-5 hours.
- The ribs are done cooking when they easily fall off the bone.
- Serve over mashed potatoes.
