Ingredients

• Beef short ribs - 500 grams
• Garlic - 2 cloves, minced
• Onion - 1 medium, finely chopped
• Olive oil - 2 tablespoons
• Smoked paprika - 1 teaspoon
• Cumin - 1/2 teaspoon
• Salt - 1 teaspoon
• Black pepper - 1/2 teaspoon
• Gluten-free burger buns - 2
• Lettuce - 2 leaves
• Tomato - 1 medium, sliced
• Cheddar cheese - 2 slices
• Pickles - 4 slices

Steps

1. In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onion and minced garlic, cooking until the onion is translucent.
2. Add the beef short ribs to the pot, browning them on all sides for about 5-7 minutes.
3. Sprinkle in smoked paprika, cumin, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to coat the ribs with the spices.
4. Cover the pot and reduce the heat to low, cooking for 1.5 hours or until the beef is tender and easily shredded.
