Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add olive oil.
Season the country-style pork ribs on all sides with salt, black pepper, and smoked paprika.
Sear the ribs in the hot skillet for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown. This step is optional but enhances flavor.
Transfer the seared ribs to the crock pot.
In the same skillet, add the sliced onions and cook for 2-3 minutes until slightly softened. Add the onions to the crock pot.
Add the minced garlic, chicken broth, barbecue sauce, and brown sugar to the crock pot. Stir to combine and coat the ribs evenly.
Cover the crock pot with the lid and cook on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 4-5 hours, until the ribs are tender and fall apart easily.
Once cooked, carefully remove the ribs from the crock pot and place them on a serving platter.
If desired, skim any excess fat from the sauce in the crock pot. You can serve the sauce as it is, or thicken it by simmering it in a saucepan over medium heat for 5 minutes.
Serve the ribs hot, garnished with extra barbecue sauce or fresh herbs if desired. Pair with mashed potatoes, coleslaw, or cornbread for a complete meal.
