Categories     Appetizer/Main Course

Time 4h10m

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 tablespoons smoked paprika or paprika
3 tablespoons packed light brown sugar
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1 tablespoon ground black pepper
½ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
6 pounds St. Louis-style pork spareribs or Baby Back ribs (see note)
1 24 ounce jar Barbecue Sauce (Blue's Hog original is superb)
¼ cup cider vinegar (if the barbecue sauce is on the sweet side)

Steps:

  • Set the slow cooker to LOW and spray with nonstick cooking spray. (I always spray the underside of the lid to help with cleanup.)
  • Remove the silver membrane from the back of the ribs. Here's a video with instructions. (You might have bought ribs with the membrane removed, and if so, skip this step.)
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the paprika, brown sugar, salt, black pepper and red pepper flakes. Rub the dry-rub mix evenly over the ribs.
  • Brush both sides of the rib with barbecue sauce and set the ribs in the slow cooker standing upright with the meaty side against the inside wall, of the slow cooker.
  • Pour the remaining barbecue sauce over the ribs. If using a sweet sauce, pour the cider vinegar over the ribs.
  • Cover and cook on LOW 5-6 hours or until the meat is fork-tender.
  • Serve with additional store-bought barbecue sauce or strain the juices, from the pan, through a fine-mesh strainer into a medium saucepan.
  • Bring the sauce to a boil, reduce the heat to low and simmer 15-20 minutes or until the mixture has reduced to 2 cups.
  • To serve, slice the meat between the bones and serve with barbecue sauce.
  • Enjoy!

These are the best I've had, short of the actual grilling method of course! This is a very simple recipe that I came up with a few years ago. It's not rocket science, just ribs cooked in the slow cooker and finished in the oven. This is what I do when I want ribs during the week and have to work all day. I'm eating them within a half-hour of getting home, and they turn out perfect every time!

Yield 5 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

3/4 teaspoon black pepper
3/4 teaspoon white pepper
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/3 cup brown sugar
1 tablespoon paprika
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
4 lbs beef ribs
0.75 (16 ounce) bottle barbecue sauce

Tips:

  • Choose the right ribs: Baby back ribs are the most popular choice for crockpot ribs, as they are tender and flavorful. However, you can also use spare ribs or country-style ribs.
  • Season the ribs well: Before cooking, be sure to season the ribs liberally with your favorite rub or marinade. This will help to enhance the flavor of the ribs.
  • Cook the ribs on low heat: Low and slow is the key to tender, fall-off-the-bone ribs. Cook the ribs on low heat for 6-8 hours, or until they are fork-tender.
  • Add liquid to the crockpot: Adding liquid to the crockpot helps to keep the ribs moist and flavorful. You can use water, broth, or even beer.
  • Cover the crockpot: Covering the crockpot helps to keep the heat and moisture in, which will result in more tender ribs.
  • Let the ribs rest before serving: Once the ribs are cooked, let them rest for a few minutes before serving. This will help the ribs to retain their juices and flavor.

Conclusion:

Crockpot ribs are an easy and delicious way to enjoy this classic dish. With a little planning and preparation, you can have fall-off-the-bone ribs that are perfect for any occasion. So next time you're looking for a simple and flavorful meal, give crockpot ribs a try. You won't be disappointed!
