Using the same pan* .. fry diced beef bacon and dice onion (1 onion) and garlic (2 cloves gralic) till crispy.
and pour over this into the slow cook and place the beef short rib over the bacon and onion.

In a bowl add about 2 cup of tomato sauce, hot dry chili powder,1 cup of water, some  worcestershire sauce, some mushroom sauce, some sweet black sauce and squeeze some lemon , some brown sugar,salt and pepper leave on high for 5 hours and later low till the ribs tender.
