Ingredients

Instructions

In a large mixing bowl, pat all short ribs dry with a paper towel. Salt generously and dredge in flour until evenly coated.
In a large dutch oven, melt butter over medium-high heat. Dust off excess flour and sear meat on all sides until golden brown with a crust, about 10 minutes.
Remove meat and add to slow cooker. Stir in all remaining ingredients except rice; season with 1 tablespoon salt and cook on low, 8 hours. Meat should be tender and fall off the bone. Skim off top layer of fat and remove bay leaves.
Meanwhile, cook wild rice according to package directions. Serve stew over wild rice.
