Slow Cooker Balsamic-Rosemary Bruased Short Ribs

"The acids in the balsamic braise help break the meat's tough fiber, making for a fall-off-the bone-tender centerpiece to a memorable dinner."
(serves 8)

2 lbs. beef short ribs
Kosher* salt and freshly* ground pepper
1 sweet* onion, thinly sliced
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 cups low-sodium beef stock
1/2 cup, plus 2 T. balsamic vinegar, divided
1/2 bunch fresh rosemary
1/2 bunch fresh oregano
1 T. chopped fresh flat-leaf* parsley

Season ribs with S&P. In a pan over high heat, sear ribs on all sides*. Transfer to slow cooker; add onions, garlic, beef stock, 1/2 cup vinegar, rosemary, and oregano. Cook on low 6-8 hours. Transfer meat and onions to platter. Let sit 10 min. Drizzle with remaining vinegar and sprinkle with parsley just before serving.
