Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1 lb short ribs
  • 1 tbsp avocado oil
  • 1 tsp thyme
  • 1 tsp rosemary
  • dash salt
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 4 rainbow carrots
  • 1/2 sweet onion
  • 4 cloves garlic
  • 1 1/2 cups apple cider
  • 1 cup chicken broth

Instructions

  • Gather your ingredients.
  • Add avocado oil to the bottom of your pot, turn up to medium-high heat and place short ribs inside. Add salt and spices. Cook until short ribs are browned on both sides, about 3-4 minutes per side.
  • While short ribs are browning, chop onions and carrots and mince garlic.
  • Remove short ribs from the pan.
  • Add onion and garlic to the pan and cook over medium heat until lightly browned.
  • Add in carrots.
  • Pour in apple cider and broth and add short ribs back in to the pan. You want the liquid covering about 2/3 of the meat. If it's not, add in some more broth and cider.
  • Cover and simmer on low heat for 2 1/2-3 hours. Serve over mashed potatoes and enjoy!
