Description

Fall-off-the-bone tender baby back ribs cooked to perfection in your slow cooker!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 23 pounds rack baby back ribs
  • 21 ounces bottle barbecue sauce
  • equal amounts kosher salt, pepper and garlic powder

Instructions

  1. Season both sides of ribs with salt, pepper and garlic powder. Rub it in well.
  2. Place ribs in your slow cooker with the meat side facing the wall of the slow cooker.
  3. Pour barbecue sauce all over the ribs, making sure that it coats the ribs as much as possible.
  4. Cover and cook on low for about 4-6 hours (until the thickest part of the ribs reaches an internal temperature of 145°F degrees).
  5. Take the ribs out carefully and place them on a foil-lined baking sheet.
  6. Baste the ribs with some of the BBQ sauce that is hanging out in the bottom of your slow cooker.
  7. Turn the oven broiler on to high and place ribs under broiler (while watching carefully!).
  8. Let the ribs caramelize under the broiler for just a few minutes. Take them out, then chop them up into 2-rib sections for easy serving.

Notes

  • Make sure to monitor the ribs while they’re broiling to prevent burning.
  • Cooking time may vary depending on the thickness of the ribs.
