Scale
3 lbs beef short ribs

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Brown the short ribs on all sides, then transfer to the slow cooker.
In the same skillet, sauté onion and garlic until softened. Add to the slow cooker.
Pour beef broth and red wine into the skillet, scraping up browned bits. Stir in tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce, thyme, rosemary, salt, and pepper.
