Slow Cooker Ribs

by Candace Sampson

I love my slow cooker. Like, if I wasn’t already married, I’d considering running away with it kind of love. This is one of my favorite recipes to make in it. Serve with mashed potatoes and roasted veggies, or homemade macaroni and cheese. My mouth is watering.  Can’t wait for dinner tonight.

 

Pleasantville Slow Cooker Ribs

 

4 lbs         pork back or side ribs ( 2 racks)

2 cups      ketchup

1 cup        chili sauce

1/2 cup    packed brown sugar

4 tbsps     vinegar

2 tsps       dried oregano

2 tsps       Worcestershire sauce

1 dash       hot sauce

 

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Season ribs with kosher salt and pepper. Line rimmed sheet pan with foil, place ribs on top and brown in oven for 15 minutes per side.

In a medium bowl, mix together ketchup, chili sauce, brown sugar, vinegar, oregano, Worcestershire sauce, and hot sauce.  Cut ribs into two rib sections and place in slow cooker. Pour sauce over ribs and turn to coat.

Cover, and cook on low 6 to 8 hours, or until ribs are tender.

    Now I have “Baby back, baby back, baby back ribs” going through my head. Not sure what that’s from, but ya, it came back to me and now it’s stuck in a loop. So thanks. 😉 Also, can you make this with beef ribs?

    You could make this with beef no problem 😉 Should have thought of that for my non-pork people .
