Advertisement

Ingredients:

  • 2 racks of baby back ribs
  • 1 cup barbecue sauce
  • 1/2 cup ketchup
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
  • 2 teaspoons smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Ribs:
    • Start by removing the membrane from the back of the ribs. This will help the flavors penetrate better during cooking.
    • Pat the ribs dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
  2. Season the Ribs:
    • In a small bowl, mix together smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and salt.
    • Rub the spice mixture evenly over both sides of the ribs, ensuring good coverage.
  3. Preheat the Crockpot:
    • Turn on your crockpot to the low setting.
  4. Layer the Ribs:
    • Cut the racks of ribs into sections that will fit into the crockpot.
    • Place the ribs in the crockpot, standing them up against the walls with the meaty side facing outward.
  5. Make the Barbecue Sauce:
    • In a medium bowl, whisk together barbecue sauce, ketchup, brown sugar, and apple cider vinegar until well combined.
  6. Coat the Ribs:
    • Pour the barbecue sauce mixture over the ribs, ensuring that each piece is well-coated.
  7. Slow Cook:
    • Cover the crockpot with the lid and cook on low for 6-8 hours or until the ribs are tender. The low and slow cooking will allow the meat to become incredibly tender and flavorful.
  8. Baste Occasionally:
    • Optionally, baste the ribs with the sauce every 2 hours to enhance the flavor.
  9. Serve:
    • Once the ribs are done, carefully remove them from the crockpot.
    • Serve the ribs hot, brushing with additional barbecue sauce if desired.
  10. Garnish and Enjoy:
    • Garnish the ribs with chopped fresh parsley or green onions for a pop of color.
    • Serve with your favorite sides, such as coleslaw, baked beans, or cornbread.
