Method
Preparing the Ribs
- 1
Season the Ribs
In a small bowl, mix together salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika. Rub this seasoning blend all over the pork ribs, ensuring they are well-coated.

Slow Cook the Ribs
Place the seasoned ribs in a slow cooker. Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours, or until the ribs are tender and the meat is pulling away from the bone.

Cook the Sauce
Heat the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a simmer. Cook for about 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens slightly.
Glazing and Serving

Glaze the Ribs
Once the ribs are cooked, carefully remove them from the slow cooker. Brush a generous amount of BBQ sauce over the ribs, coating them well.

Finish Under Broiler
Preheat your oven's broiler. Place the glazed ribs on a baking sheet and broil for 3-5 minutes, watching closely to prevent burning, until the sauce is caramelized.

Serve
Remove the ribs from the oven and let them rest for a few minutes. Cut between the bones to separate into individual ribs. Serve with remaining BBQ sauce on the side.
