Crockpot Beef Short Ribs with Mushrooms Recipe
Crockpot meals are perfect for busy days. A little prep in the morning, then let the crockpot do its magic on boneless short ribs. By the time you return hours later the tantalizing waft of dinner will welcome you, and the beef will be fork-tender. Serve with mashed potatoes or rice for the mushroom gravy bonus.
