How to Make Asian Style Short Ribs Crockpot

  1. Place short ribs in the slow cooker.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup honey, 1/4 cup soy sauce, 2 tablespoons rice vinegar, 2 cloves minced garlic, 1 teaspoon grated ginger, 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes, 3/4 cup chopped scallions, and 1 1/2 cups water.
  3. Pour the sauce mixture over the short ribs in the slow cooker.
  4. Cover and cook on low for 7-8 hours, or on high for 3-4 hours, until the ribs are incredibly tender.
  5. Carefully transfer the short ribs to a cutting board. Remove the meat from the bones and shred with two forks.
  6. Skim excess fat from the cooking liquid in the slow cooker and reserve 1 cup of the flavorful juices.
  7. Cook noodles according to package directions. Drain.
  8. Toss the cooked noodles with 1 cup of the reserved short rib juices.
  9. Divide the noodles among 6 serving dishes. Top with the shredded short ribs, the remaining chopped scallions, lime wedges, and extra reserved juices for an extra burst of flavor.
