There’s a reason why meat and potatoes are a perfect pair. Rich and saucy short ribs need fluffy, buttery potatoes for soaking up all that extra savory sauce. In this delicious meal, short ribs slow cook for 7 hours until tender and then served with our favorite mashed potatoes for a classic meal the whole family will love.

I just saw a video ad showing the short ribs loaded on top and the potatoes on the bottom. The recipe card accompanying the food states to put the potatoes in the top zone and the short ribs in the bottom. This recipe also says the opposite of the card. Which is correct? I have this cooking now as directed on the card so I hope it turns out ok!
Hi Kari, for any of our Slow Cook meals it technically doesn’t matter which zone you put the potatoes or short ribs in; the top and bottom zones have identical temperatures and times when slow cooking. When in doubt, always follow meal card instructions.
