Slow Cooker Short Ribs and the Benefits of Cooking Slowly
Slow-cooked meat is a process that takes time and patience. This can be achieved by cooking the ribs for a long time in liquid or cooking them for a shorter period of time at a higher temperature.
Slow cooking meat is not only about tenderizing it but also about extracting flavors from the meat. One of the best ways to do this is to cook it in liquid, like water or broth.
Preparing Your Meat
Cooking meat in a crockpot is a great way to prepare tough cuts of meat. Itβs also one of the most economical methods for cooking.
The best way to cook bone-in short ribs in a crock pot is by boiling water and adding salt and spices. Then, place the ribs in the crockpot and fill with water so that it covers the ribs by about an inch or two. Add any vegetables you want to cook with your ribs, like carrots or potatoes. Turn on the crock pot and allow it to cook for about 8 hours on low heat.
