Equipment
Ingredients
- 3-4 pounds (about 2 racks) baby back ribs, with membrane on back removed
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 cup BBQ Sauce, plus additional for serving
Instructions
- Place the ribs in the slow cooker and sprinkle both sides with salt. Cut the racks into smaller portions if needed to fit your slow cooker.
- Pour the BBQ sauce over the ribs and coat them well on all sides.
- Cover and cook on low for 8 to 10 hours, until tender and pulling away from the bone.
- Baste with additional BBQ sauce and serve. For sticky, caramelized ribs, transfer to a foil-lined baking sheet, brush with more sauce, and broil 3 to 5 minutes until bubbling.
Notes
To Store: : Place the ribs in an airtight container or wrap them tightly in aluminum foil. Store in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days.
Reheating: To reheat, preheat your oven to 250°F (you want to reheat low and slow) Place the ribs on a baking sheet, cover with foil, and heat for about 20 minutes or until warmed through.
