Ingredients | Beef Short Ribs Slow Cooker Recipes Easy

1 habanero pepper, minced

1 ½ teaspoons ground black pepper

1 teaspoon monosodium glutamate (MSG)

1 teaspoon paprika

½ teaspoon ground cumin

2 pounds beef short ribs

1 (12 fluid ounce) can or bottle cola

2 tablespoons apple cider

1 tablespoon raspberry jam

1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

1 tablespoon brown sugar

2 teaspoons canola oil

½ onion, diced

4 cloves garlic, minced

2 tablespoons water

2 tablespoons cornstarch

Directions

Combine habanero pepper, black pepper, MSG, paprika, and cumin in a bowl. Rub mixture evenly over ribs; refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

Combine cola, apple cider, jam, Worcestershire sauce, and brown sugar together in another bowl; stir well.

Heat oil in a pressure cooker over medium-high heat. Add ribs in batches; cook until browned all all sides, about 8 minutes. Remove from pot and set aside. Add onions and garlic to the pot. Cook and stir until onions are translucent, about 5 minutes. Return ribs to the pot; pour in cola mixture.

Close pot securely and place pressure regulator over vent according to manufacturer's instructions. Bring to high pressure, with rapid steam escaping the cooker, about 5 minutes. Reduce heat to medium and cook for 30 minutes. Let pressure release naturally according to manufacturer's instructions, about 15 minutes.

Combine water and cornstarch together in a small bowl; mix until cornstarch is dissolved.

Open pot carefully; transfer ribs to a plate. Skim any extra fat off the top of the liquid; drain to remove any solid bits. Return liquid to the pot. Mix in the cornstarch slurry. Cook, stirring constantly, over medium-high heat, until boiling. Remove from heat. Add ribs back in and coat in the liquid.

Salt can be substituted for the MSG.

If you don't handle spice very well, feel free to cut back the paprika to 1/2 teaspoon and to omit the habanero. You will still want a little bit of heat while cooking to counter the sweetness from the jam and soda, but cutting it back a bit will still help the flavors come together.
