– Season the beef short ribs generously with salt and pepper on all sides.
2- In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Sear the short ribs on each side for 2-3 minutes until browned. Remove from heat and set aside.
3- In the same skillet, add the chopped onion and garlic, sautéing for 2-3 minutes until softened.
4- Transfer the short ribs, onion, and garlic to a slow cooker. Add beef broth, red wine (if using), tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce, thyme, paprika, and bay leaves. Stir to combine.
5- Cover and cook on low for 8 hours, or until the short ribs are tender and falling off the bone.
6- Remove the bay leaves, garnish with fresh parsley, and serve the short ribs with the sauce over mashed potatoes or your favorite side dish.
