Here is an easy slow cooker ribs recipe that yields tender, flavorful ribs with minimal prep: Ingredients:

  • 1 rack pork ribs (about 2 lbs)
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon light brown sugar
  • 32 ounces BBQ sauce

Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F. Season ribs generously on both sides with salt and pepper. Rub the garlic powder, onion powder, and brown sugar onto both sides.
  2. Pre-bake ribs on a baking sheet covered with foil for 15 minutes on each side.
  3. Place the ribs in the slow cooker with the meat side facing out. Smother with BBQ sauce, reserving some for serving.
  4. Cover and cook on LOW for 4-6 hours until ribs are tender but not falling off the bone.
  5. Serve ribs warm with extra BBQ sauce on top.

Optional: After slow cooking, ribs can be broiled for 2-5 minutes to caramelize the sauce if desired. This enhances flavor and texture. This recipe is straightforward and uses basic seasoning with BBQ sauce for rich flavor and fall-apart tenderness with very little hands-on time.
