These ribs are so tender and flavorful that they literally fall off the bone. The tangy explosion of flavors will leave you craving for more. Whether you’re planning a summer picnic, a family gathering, or just a simple dinner, these crock pot ribs are sure to impress.

The best part about this recipe is that it’s incredibly easy. There are no complicated techniques or messy wet ingredients involved. All you need is a mouthwatering dry rub and a slow cooker. The natural juices from the ribs will provide all the moisture needed to create a truly delicious dish.



To start, make a dry rub using a combination of brown sugar, smoked paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, salt, and cracked pepper. This blend of sweet and savory flavors will elevate your ribs to a whole new level.

Before you begin cooking, make sure to remove the membrane on the back side of the pork ribs. It’s not the most pleasant task, but it’s crucial for achieving tender ribs. Just peel away the pink fleshy layer using a knife or your fingers. Trust us, it’s worth the effort!

Once you’ve prepared the ribs, place them in the slow cooker standing up and lean them against the sides. Cooking them upright ensures that all sides are evenly cooked and enhances the tenderness.

Let the ribs cook on low in the slow cooker for 6-8 hours. When they’re done, you have two options to finish them off: broiling or grilling. Brush the ribs with your favorite BBQ sauce, such as Sweet Baby Ray’s, and either broil them in the oven for a few minutes or cook them on the grill to give them a caramelized, smoky flavor.

Serve these mouthwatering Easy Slow Cooker BBQ Ribs with creamy coleslaw or a refreshing pasta salad for a complete and heavenly meal. If you’re worried about cleaning up, consider using a slow cooker liner for easy cleanup.

So go ahead, try out this fantastic recipe and make it your own. Experiment with different dry rubs and barbecue sauces to find the perfect combination that suits your taste buds. Get ready to impress your family and friends with these fall-off-the-bone delicious ribs!
