Prep Time 15 minutes
Cook Time 8 hours 10 minutes

Ingredients
  

  • 4 pounds short ribs
  • 1/4 cup cooking oil
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon oregano
  • 1 teaspoon dried parsley flakes
  • 1 teaspoon seasoned salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 cup chopped onion
  • 2 carrots, chopped, optional
  • 2 cups beef stock

Instructions

  • Combine flour, oregano, parsley, salt, and garlic powder; coat short ribs with mixture by dredging or shaking in a food storage bag. Discard any remaining flour mixture.
  • In a skillet over medium heat, brown short ribs on all sides in hot oil. Drain well and place in slow cooker. Add chopped onions, carrots (if using), stock, and beer.
  • Cover and cook on low heat for 8 to 10 hours or on high for 5 to 6 hours.
  • Serve with the juices or make a gravy (below).

Notes

  1. To make gravy, skim off the fat, transfer the juices to a saucepan, and cook over medium heat until the liquids are reduced and the flavors are concentrated. Combine 2 tablespoons of flour with 3 tablespoons of cold water and stir until smooth. Add to the juices and cook, stirring, until thickened.
