Instructions
Turn the slow cooker on to high heat.
In a large, non-stick skillet over medium high heat brown the short ribs (a few minutes per side). Transfer them to the slow cooker.
To the same skillet add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 5 minutes.
Add the beef consommé, tomatoes with green chilies, crushed tomatoes and all the seasonings. Bring to a simmer and add to the slow cooker so it covers the short ribs.
Put the lid on the slow cooker and cook for 6 to 8 hours.
Using tongs, remove the short ribs and bones from the chili. Using two forks, shred the meat and discard the bones and any obvious fat.
Return the shredded beef short ribs to the slow cooker and add the drained black beans. Stir well to combine. Cook for an additional 30 - 60 minutes. Serve the chili topped with shredded cheese and sour cream.
