      We haven’t tested this recipe in a slow-cooker, but see no reason why not. Please let us know how it turns out if you try it.

    • Michele W Missner

      I made this in a slow cooker. 5 hrs on low and the meat was tender and juicy. I plan to try it with chicken.

    • Michele W Missner

      Turned out great in the slow cooker. 5 hrs on low. Meat was fall off the bone tender. Am trying the recipe with chicken!

  • Sandra

    I too would like to use a slow cooker. Wondering if you don’t need to increase liquid? Be expensive to do if it failed.

  • Michele W Missner

    I’m trying it in the slow cooker! I had some bourbon, not brandy and pomegranate syrup that I substituted for juice. I’ll report on how they turn out. Cooking on low for 6-7 hrs. I browned the short ribs before putting them in cooker. Don’t know if it’s necessary but I looked at other recipes.

  • Michele W Missner

    I am cooking them in the slow cooker. it’s been three hours. There is plenty of liquid without adding any. If I did need some, I was going to add red wine. I took a picture but no way to add it. I think they will be good!!

  • Michele W Missner

    I made the short ribs in my slow cooker and they were fabulous. Except for 2 substitutes, pomegranate syrup for juice and bourbon for brandy, I followed the recipe. I did brown the short ribs before putting them in the crock pot but I don’t know if it was necessary.
    I put them in the crock pot at 11 am and they were very tender by 4 pm. I cooked them on low. At 4 I put them on warm. We ate about 7 and the meat literally fell off the bones. I served them with mashed potatoes and green salad. Peach cobbler for dessert.

  • Michele W Missner

    I did make this in my slow cooker. I followed the recipe except bourbon for brandy and pomegranate syrup for juice. I did brown the meat first in a frying pan. I put the short ribs in at 11 am. They were very tender at 4 pm. I cooked them on low and at 4 pm at keep warm. Served with mashed potatoes and green salad.

  • Judy B

    Would this recipe also work for brisket, adjusting ingredients and cooking time for the weight of the meat?

  • Lynn

    Are you using boneless short rib or on-the-bone? makes a huge difference in terms of weight. Can’t wait to try this!

    • The Nosher

      You can order pomegranate juice on Amazon or just use an extra 1 Tbsp orange juice.

  • Pamela

    Been making this in a scan pan with lid for years. Excellent recipe. Cooked it a little longer.

  • Vera

    I have a pot roast that I want to convert into a stew for dinner. What would be the adjustments
