Indulge in succulent, fall-off-the-bone tender barbecue ribs effortlessly prepared in your slow cooker. A flavorful dry rub and a rich, smoky-sweet sauce create the perfect blend of flavors for this hassle-free and unforgettable meal.
In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar, smoked paprika, chili powder, garlic powder, onion powder, kosher salt, and freshly ground black pepper. Rub the spice mix evenly over each rib, making sure to coat all sides.
2
Spray a 6-quart or larger slow cooker with nonstick spray. Layer the seasoned ribs in the slow cooker.
3
In another small bowl or large measuring cup, combine the ketchup, molasses, apple cider vinegar, hot sauce, and Worcestershire sauce. Pour half of the sauce over the ribs in the slow cooker, and set the other half of the sauce aside.
4
Cover the slow cooker and cook on low for 8 hours, or until the ribs are cooked through and ultra-tender.
5
Reheat the reserved sauce and serve alongside the cooked ribs.
