Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 lbs Country-style pork ribs
- 2 tsp Salt
- 1 tsp Black pepper
- 1 tsp Garlic powder
- 1 tsp Onion powder
- 1 tsp Paprika
- 2 cups BBQ sauce
- 2 tbsp Apple cider vinegar
- 2 tbsp Brown sugar
- 1 tsp Liquid smoke (optional)
- 1 tbsp Cooking spray or oil
Instructions
Spray the inside of the crock pot with cooking spray or lightly grease it with oil to prevent sticking.
Pat the country-style pork ribs dry with paper towels. Season them evenly on all sides with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika.
Place the seasoned ribs into the crock pot. Arrange them in a single layer, overlapping slightly if necessary.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the BBQ sauce, apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, and liquid smoke (if using). Stir until well blended.
Pour the BBQ sauce mixture evenly over the ribs, ensuring they are fully coated.
Cover the crock pot with the lid and set it to cook on low heat for 6-7 hours or high heat for 3-4 hours. Cook until the ribs are tender and easily pull apart with a fork.
Optional: For a slightly caramelized finish, transfer the cooked ribs to a baking sheet lined with foil. Brush them with additional BBQ sauce and broil in the oven at 450°F (232°C) for 3-5 minutes, watching closely to prevent burning.
Serve the ribs hot with your favorite sides like coleslaw, cornbread, or mashed potatoes. Enjoy!
