Short Ribs

Ingredients:

3 large carrots, cut into 1-inch pieces
2 medium onions, cut into wedges
3 pounds boneless beef short ribs, trimmed and cut into 2-inch pieces (we find that 1/2 pound of bone-in short ribs per person is a good general rule)
1/2 cup dry red wine
1/4 cup beef broth
2 tablespoons Silver Spring Dijon Mustard
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme, crushed
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 bay leaf
1 bottle Silver Spring Applewood Smoke Flavored Horseradish

Directions:

Place carrots and onions in a 4 to 5 quart slow cooker. Place beef on top of vegetables. In a small bowl stir together wine, broth, mustard, garlic, salt, thyme, and pepper. Add broth mixture and bay leaf to cooker. Cover and cook on low-heat setting for 8-9 hours or on high-setting for 4 ½ to 5 hours. Use a slotted spoon to transfer ribs and vegetables to a serving dish, reserving cooking liquid. Discard bay leaf. Skim fat from liquid. Pour some of the cooking liquid over ribs to moisten. Serve with Silver Spring™ Applewood Smoke Flavored Horseradish.
