Ingredients

  • 3 lbs beef short ribs

  • 1/2 cup soy sauce

  • 1/4 cup rice vinegar

  • 1/4 cup brown sugar

  • 2 Tbsp sesame oil

  • 4 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 Tbsp ginger, grated

  • Tony Chachere’s No Salt Seasoning, to taste

  • Chinese 5 Spice Powder, to taste

  • smoked paprika, to taste

  • 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes

  • 1/2 cup beef broth

  • 2 carrots, sliced

  • 2 green onions sliced, for garnish

  • sesame seeds for garnish

  • quick grits

  • Clear

Directions

  1. Pat the short ribs dry with a paper towel.
  2. Drizzle ribs with olive oil and season generously with Tony Chachere’s, Chinese 5 Spice, and smoked paprika.
  3. Heat a skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add in the short ribs to brown on all sides (2-3 mins on each side).
  4. Remove from heat and add ribs to the slow cooker along with the sliced carrots.
  5. In a large bowl, whisk together soy sauce, rice vinegar, brown sugar, sesame oil, garlic, ginger, red pepper flakes, and beef broth.
  6. Pour the sauce mixture over the top, ensuring the ribs and carrots are well coated.
  7. Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 3-4 hours, until the meat is tender and falls off the bone.
  8. Within the last 10 minutes of the ribs cooking, make the grits.
  9. Once cooked, remove the ribs and carrots, and pour the sauce into a saucepan. Simmer the sauce over medium heat and stir in cornstarch slurry until slightly thickened (about 10 minutes).
  10. Serve the ribs over grits drizzled with the sauce and garnished with sliced green onions and sesame seeds.
