Steps:
- Put 4 tbsp of barbecue sauce along with the rest of the ingredients into your slow cooker. Top up with enough water to cover (roughly 1.5l). Slow cook on Low for 8 - 9 hours until very tender but not completely falling off the bone.
- Heat the oven to 220C/ 200C fan/ gas mark 7. Remove the ribs from the slow cooker using a slotted spoon or tongs. Handle them carefully as the meat will be very tender and may start to fall off. Baste with the remaining barbecue sauce and lay on a foil-lined oven tray. Cook for 20 - 30 mins until starting to crisp on outside. Alternatively, cook on the barbecue, turning from time to time until piping hot throughout.

Tips:
- Choose the right ribs: Use pork ribs that are meaty and have a good amount of fat. This will ensure that they stay juicy and tender while cooking. Spare ribs and baby back ribs are both good choices.
- Season the ribs well: Before cooking, rub the ribs with a mixture of spices and herbs. This will help to enhance their flavor. Some good options include garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, chili powder, and cumin.
- Brown the ribs before cooking: This step is optional, but it can help to add flavor and color to the ribs. To brown the ribs, sear them in a hot skillet over medium-high heat for a few minutes per side.
- Cook the ribs on low heat: This will help to ensure that they cook evenly and become fall-off-the-bone tender. Cook the ribs for 6-8 hours on low, or until they reach an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Glaze the ribs: In the last hour of cooking, glaze the ribs with your favorite sauce. This will help to add flavor and moisture to the ribs.
Conclusion:
Spare ribs in a slow cooker are a delicious and easy-to-make meal. By following these tips, you can ensure that your ribs turn out perfectly tender and flavorful. Serve them with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, coleslaw, or corn on the cob.
