For an even richer flavor, sear the short ribs in a hot skillet before adding them to the slow cooker. This will create a beautiful crust and enhance the depth of flavor. If you prefer a thicker sauce, mix a tablespoon of cornstarch with two tablespoons of cold water. Stir this slurry into the slow cooker during the last 30 minutes of cooking. These short ribs are excellent served over mashed potatoes, creamy polenta, or egg noodles to soak up all that delicious sauce.
