➤ Ingredients:

 

● 2 racks of baby back ribs

● 1 cup barbecue sauce

● 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar

● 1/4 cup honey

● 2 teaspoons smoked paprika

● 1 teaspoon garlic powder

● 1 teaspoon onion powder

● 1/2 teaspoon salt

● 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

● 1/4 cup water

 

➤ Method :

 

Step 1: Prepping the Ribs

Start by removing the membrane from the back of the ribs. Use a sharp knife to pry up one corner of the membrane and then use a paper towel to grip and pull it off the rest of the way. This step is important to ensure that the ribs will be tender and juicy.

 

Step 2: Seasoning the Ribs

In a small bowl, mix together the smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Rub the spice mixture all over both sides of the ribs.

 

Step 3: Cooking the Ribs

Pour the barbecue sauce, apple cider vinegar, honey, and water into the slow cooker and stir to combine. Add the ribs to the slow cooker, meaty side down, and spoon some of the sauce over the top of the ribs. Cook the ribs on low for 6-8 hours, or on high for 4-5 hours, until they are tender and falling off the bone.

 

 

Step 4: Finishing the Ribs

Once the ribs are fully cooked, carefully remove them from the slow cooker and place them on a baking sheet lined with foil. Brush additional barbecue sauce over the ribs and broil them in the oven for 3-5 minutes, or until the sauce is bubbly and caramelized.

 

Step 5: Serving the Ribs

Serve the slow cooker ribs with your favorite side dishes, such as baked beans, coleslaw, or potato salad. Garnish with fresh herbs or sliced green onions, if desired.

 

 

➤ Tips and Tricks:

 

— If you prefer your ribs to have a bit of a kick, add some cayenne pepper or hot sauce to the spice rub.

 

— For an even deeper flavor, marinate the ribs in the barbecue sauce mixture overnight before cooking them in the slow cooker.

 

— To save time, you can skip the broiling step and simply brush the barbecue sauce over the ribs before serving them straight from the slow cooker.

 

— Leftover ribs can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months.

Slow cooker ribs are a foolproof way to create a delicious and flavorful meal without the need for a barbecue grill.
