Trim any excess fat from the pork ribs and pat them dry with paper towels. Set aside.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, brown sugar, rice vinegar, minced garlic, minced ginger, chili garlic sauce, sesame oil, ground coriander, cumin powder, and black pepper to create the sauce.
Place the pork ribs in the crock pot in a single layer, overlapping slightly if necessary.
Pour the prepared sauce evenly over the ribs, ensuring they are well-coated.
Cover the crock pot with the lid and cook on low heat for 7 hours, or until the ribs are tender and the meat easily pulls away from the bone.
Once cooked, carefully remove the ribs from the crock pot and transfer to a serving plate. Skim off any excess fat from the sauce in the crock pot.
Optional: Transfer the sauce to a small saucepan, bring it to a simmer over medium heat, and reduce slightly to thicken. Drizzle the thickened sauce over the ribs for extra flavor.
Garnish the ribs with sliced green onions and chopped cilantro.
Serve hot with steamed jasmine rice, if desired.
