Instructions
In a large bowl, combine flour, salt and pepper. Toss ribs in seasoned flour, shaking off excess.
Warm oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Working in batches, cook ribs, turning with tongs, until browned on all sides, about 10 minutes.
Transfer ribs to slow cooker.
Pour off all but 1 Tbsp. fat from skillet.
Add onion, ginger and garlic to skillet. Cook, stirring often, until slightly softened, 2 to 3 minutes.
Pour in broth, increase heat to high and bring to a boil, stirring with a wooden spoon to pick up any browned bits on bottom of skillet. Stir in hoisin sauce, soy sauce and five-spice powder until well combined.
Pour contents of skillet over ribs in slow cooker.
Cover and cook until beef is very tender, with slow cooker on low for 6 to 8 hours or on high for 3 to 4 hours.
Remove ribs to a platter. Skim as much fat as possible from cooking liquid in slow cooker; discard fat. Spoon remaining liquid over ribs and serve hot.
Recommended wine: Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Pinot Noir
Beef Short Ribs works really well with Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Pinot Noir. Beef and red wine are a classic combination. Generally, leaner cuts of beef go well with light or medium-bodied reds, such as pinot noir or merlot, while fattier cuts can handle a bold red, such as cabernet sauvingnon.
