Directions
- Season the ribs generously with salt and black pepper on all sides.
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the ribs for 2-3 minutes per side until browned. This step locks in flavor but can be skipped if you’re short on time.
- Place the sliced onions et minced garlic in the bottom of the slow cooker.
- Arrange the seared ribs on top of the onions.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the BBQ sauce, Worcestershire sauce, apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, Dijon mustard, smoked paprika, et cayenne pepper.
- Pour the sauce evenly over the ribs.
- Pour the beef broth around the edges of the ribs, being careful not to wash away the sauce.
- Cover and cook on LOW for 8 hours or until the ribs are tender and the meat is falling off the bone.
- Once cooked, carefully remove the ribs from the slow cooker with tongs. Let them rest for a few minutes before serving.
- Serve with your favorite side dishes like mashed potatoes, coleslaw, or corn on the cob.
Notes
- For extra saucy ribs, remove the ribs after cooking and let the sauce reduce in a pan over medium heat until it thickens.
Can I cook the ribs on high instead of low?
Yes, you can cook the ribs on HIGH for 4–5 hours. However, cooking them on low for 8 hours yields the best tender, fall-off-the-bone texture.
