Ingredients

Units Scale

Ribs:

  • 2 racks baby back ribs
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon paprika
  • 1 tablespoon garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Barbecue Sauce:

  • 1 cup ketchup
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Ribs: Remove the membrane from the back of the ribs. In a small bowl, mix the brown sugar, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Rub this mixture all over the ribs.
  2. Cook in the Crockpot: Place the ribs in the slow cooker, standing them up against the walls with the meaty side facing out. Cook on low for 6-8 hours or until tender.
  3. Make the Sauce: In a saucepan, combine all the barbecue sauce ingredients. Simmer for 10-15 minutes until slightly thickened.
  4. Finish the Ribs: Preheat your oven broiler. Brush the cooked ribs with the barbecue sauce and broil for a few minutes until caramelized.
  5. Serve: Cut the ribs between the bones and serve with extra barbecue sauce on the side.

Notes

  • For a smokier flavor, add a dash of liquid smoke to the barbecue sauce.
  • You can finish the ribs on a hot grill instead of broiling for a charred finish.
  • Adjust the sweetness and tanginess of the sauce to suit your taste preferences.
