Ingredients

• 3 pounds Beef short ribs or pot roast
• 1 large Yellow onion, diced
• 4 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
• 0.5 cup Honey
• 0.25 cup Dijon mustard
• 1 cup Barbecue sauce
• 0.5 cup Beef broth
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
• 1 teaspoon Fresh rosemary, chopped (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Season the short ribs or pot roast with salt, pepper, and smoked paprika.

Step 2

In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Sear the meat on all sides until browned, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.

Step 3

In the same skillet, add the diced onion and cook until softened, about 3-4 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute. Transfer the onion and garlic mixture to the crock pot.

Step 4

In a medium bowl, whisk together the honey, Dijon mustard, barbecue sauce, and beef broth until well combined.

Step 5

Place the seared meat into the crock pot on top of the onion and garlic mixture. Pour the honey mustard barbecue sauce over the meat, ensuring it is fully covered.

Step 6

If using fresh rosemary, sprinkle it on top of the sauce.

Step 7

Cover the crock pot and cook on low heat for 8 hours, or until the meat is tender and easily pulls apart with a fork.

Step 8

Once cooked, carefully remove the meat from the crock pot and shred or slice, depending on preference.

Step 9

Serve the meat with the sauce spooned over the top. Pair with mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or rice for a complete meal.
