These Crock Pot country-style ribs are wicked delicious and insanely easy to make. The melt-in-your-mouth meat teamed up the spicy and tangy BBQ sauce- it truly is Southern comfort at its best!
In a 6-quart or larger crock pot, add onions to the bottom. Then, place the ribs on top.
Add barbecue sauce, brown sugar, spices, and Worcestershire sauce to a medium bowl. Whisk until well combined. Then, pour over the ribs.
Cover and cook on low for 8-9 hours.
Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. Then, gently remove the ribs and place them on the foil-lined baking sheet. Then, coat the top of the ribs with the remaining barbecue sauce.
Broil for 3-5 minutes until the barbecue sauce thickens and begins to bubble.
Notes
Make sure you preheat your broiler while preparing the ribs. This will ensure quick and perfect caramelization of the BBQ sauce.
If your BBQ sauce seems too thick, loosen it up with a bit of apple cider vinegar or water.
Avoid overcooking the ribs- take a peek during the final hour of cooking.
To check if the pork ribs are done cooking, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. If it reaches 145°F, it is ready!
Allow the ribs to rest for a few minutes after broiling. This will seal in the juices, keep the meat juicy and tender, and also help it reach the safe temperature for consumption as it cooks in the residual heat.
