SLOW-COOKER BARBECUE RIBS



Slow-Cooker Barbecue Ribs image

Yes, you can cook ribs in a slow cooker! In this easy recipe, the seasoning paste transforms into a savory dipping sauce. Slather it on the ribs and pop them on the grill just before serving for a final char.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 4h40m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

One 6-ounce can tomato paste
1/3 cup packed dark brown sugar
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 tablespoon ground mustard seeds
2 teaspoons granulated garlic
2 teaspoons smoked paprika
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 racks baby back ribs (about 3 pounds)
Oil, for grilling

Steps:

  • Whisk the tomato paste, brown sugar, vinegar, chili powder, mustard, garlic, paprika, Worcestershire, 1 1/2 tablespoons salt and 1 teaspoon pepper in the insert of a 6-quart slow cooker until smooth. Cut each rack of ribs in half and add to the slow cooker. Use your hands to rub the sauce on to the ribs. Cover with a lid and cook on low heat until tender, about 4 hours.
  • Gently transfer the ribs to a baking sheet and cool for at least 20 minutes; this will help maintain the shape of the ribs as they grill. Whisk the sauce at the bottom of the slow cooker until smooth. Reserve 1/4 cup of the sauce to brush on to the ribs and save any remaining sauce to serve on the side (it will thicken as it cools).
  • Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grates. Grill the ribs, top-side down, until lightly charred in parts, 3 to 5 minutes. Flip, brush the top side of the ribs with the reserved barbecue sauce and grill until the underside of the ribs are lightly charred in parts, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove to a platter and serve immediately with the extra barbecue sauce on the side.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of ribs: Baby back ribs are the most popular choice for slow cooker ribs, but you can also use spare ribs or country-style ribs. Spare ribs have more meat and fat, while country-style ribs are meatier and have more bone.
  • Season the ribs well: A good rub is essential for flavorful ribs. You can use a pre-made rub or make your own using spices like paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cumin, and chili powder.
  • Cook the ribs on low heat: Low and slow is the best way to cook ribs in a slow cooker. This allows the meat to become tender and fall off the bone.
  • Add liquid to the slow cooker: Adding liquid to the slow cooker helps to keep the ribs moist and prevent them from drying out. You can use water, broth, or even beer.
  • Cook the ribs until they are fall-off-the-bone tender: The cooking time will vary depending on the type of ribs and the size of the slow cooker. Baby back ribs usually take 6-8 hours on low, while spare ribs and country-style ribs may take 8-10 hours.

Conclusion:

Slow cooker saucy barbecued ribs are a delicious and easy meal that can be enjoyed by the whole family. By following these tips, you can make sure that your ribs turn out tender, flavorful, and fall-off-the-bone delicious.
