Slow-Cooker Beef Short Ribs
I make these first thing in the morning if I know I won't have time to cook that evening. I've even made the entire dish the night before, so all I have to do in the morning is take the slow-cooker pan out of the oven and set it to low.

PREPARATION
1.
If your slow-cooker has a "brown/saute" option, I'd use this to brown the edge of the ribs prior to slow-cooking. If it doesn't put the ribs into the slow-cooker first, so they're on the bottom near the heating element.
2.
Toss in potatoes, kerrits, onion, garlic, celery, diced tomatoes, etc.
3.
Add the tomato paste. Try to spread this around.
4.
Pour in the chicken broth until the vegetables are covered.
5.
Set your slow-cooker on "low" and leave it for 8 hours.
NOTES, TIPS, TRICKS, HINTS, ETC:
1.
Serve over rice, or pasta, or alongside mashed potatoes, spinach and chopped garlic, or bok choy.
2.
I've been told that the ribs should go into the cooking pan first, so they sit at the bottom of the pan, nearest to the heating element. I think you want the ribs to absorb a lot of heat, which helps them reach their full flavor potential.
