Pat the beef short ribs dry with a paper towel and season them lightly with salt and pepper on all sides.
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, brown sugar, hoisin sauce, rice vinegar, minced garlic, ginger, sesame oil, and beef broth.
Place the short ribs in the crock pot in a single layer (you may need to overlap them slightly).
Pour the sauce mixture evenly over the short ribs, ensuring they are well-coated.
Cover the crock pot with a lid and cook on low for 8 hours or on high for 4-6 hours, until the short ribs are tender and falling off the bone.
Once cooked, use a spoon to skim off any excess fat from the top of the sauce.
Optional: To thicken the sauce, remove the ribs and transfer the liquid to a saucepan. Simmer the liquid on medium heat for 5-10 minutes until slightly reduced.
Serve the ribs over steamed rice or noodles, spooning the sauce on top.
Garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds before serving.
