As long as you can find the short ribs on sale (!), this is a wonderful recipe. Excellent snowy Sunday dinner. I do add garlic and onions, but you don't have to. My whole family loves this!

After reading the reviews, I added 3 cloves of garlic, before I put everything in the oven. Other than the addition of garlic, I followed the recipe exactly as written. I loved this recipe, and so did everyone else at dinner. This is a definite keeper. Thanks RCHEISS

Soo good. I added the garlic and the low sodium stock and it was great. It wasn't very difficult, even for a novice like me. Because of the tomatoes, it was even better the next day. Everyone loved it. This recipe's a keeper :)

It was delicious. My friends couldn't believe it was the first time I made it. I might try it with different meat next time. I don't like a lot of fat in my meat.

Loved this recipe! Didn't have any ribs on hand so I put a roast in the crockpot and threw all of the other ingredients on top. The aroma was wonderful all day and the whole family enjoyed. Thanks for a great tasting recipe!

Easy and excellent. The onion, leeks, tomatoes and broth braise the ribs perfectly!

These short ribs were great! Suggest low sodium beef stock (bloody mary mix is loaded), 4 clove minced/crushed garlic, 8 oz mushrooms (you can add the stems in also separately) and thicken at the end with 2-3 Tbs corn starch dissolved in water. Serve with/over thin egg noodles.

OMG!!!!!!! This dish was absolutely AMAZING!!!! I had to make a couple of changes bc my dutch oven was only 3.1 liters. I followed the recipe exactly except only used 2 cups bloody mary mix, added 4 gloves smashed garlic. Other than that, I made no changes. This is the first recipe that I made in my new Dutch Oven. I served the ribs on the side and other ingredients on top of long grain wild rice with mashed potatoes on the side. I know... 2 starches but hubby wanted the mashed. Absolutely fabulous!!!! Thanks for a great recipe!!!!

As I read the recipe, something kept niggling at the back of my consciousness. I couldn't quite put my finger on it. Then it hit me. There was no garlic in the dish!!! I wept! Then I added 5 cloves of finely chopped garlic to the leeks as I added them to the pot. That was the only change needed. This dish is TOTALLY a keeper! Don't you DARE pass this one up!
