Slow Cooker Short Rib Sauce

Tender and succulent short ribs make this Slow Cooker Short Rib Sauce an unbelievably delicious meal. The short ribs become fork tender after hours of slow cooking in the crock pot and they really soak up the flavors of the other ingredients. Slow Cooker Short Rib Sauce is a thick and meaty sauce that is sure to become a family favorite.

The short ribs that I used for this recipe are from The Naked Pig, a mail order business with a farm in Oakboro, NC. They have a variety of beef and pork products all at very reasonable prices, including sausages, bacon, ribs, steaks, and even hot dogs.

All of their beef and pork products are free of artificial ingredients and preservatives and are also free of nitrates, nitrites, antibiotics, and hormones. The animals are raised humanely and the cows are grass fed.

If you don’t have access to high quality meat products near your home or you aren’t satisfied with the ones you have been purchasing take a peak at The Naked Pig’s Products.

Beef Short Ribs are one of the most delicious meats you can eat. They cook up so flavorful and tender, especially in a crock pot. Short ribs have just the right amount of fat and as they cook, the fat melts and flavors the meat. You can use either bone-in or boneless short ribs for this recipe.

Be sure to use quality tomatoes for this recipe. In addition to adding a can of plum tomatoes, I add a whole can of tomato paste and a few chopped sun-dried tomatoes to make sure the sauce has a really robust tomato flavor.

Slow Cooker Short Rib Sauce is perfect served over pasta, egg noodles, or even mashed potatoes.
