Slow-Cooked BBQ Baby Back Ribs

Preparing the Ribs Remove the membrane from the back of the ribs by sliding a knife under it and pulling it off.

Seasoning the Ribs In a bowl, mix the brown sugar, paprika, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper. Rub the mixture all over the ribs, ensuring they are fully coated. Let the ribs sit at room temperature for 30 minutes.

Prepping the Slow Cooker Pour the BBQ sauce, apple cider vinegar, and Worcestershire sauce into the slow cooker and mix well.

Slow-Cooking the Ribs Place the seasoned ribs in the slow cooker, ensuring they are fully submerged in the sauce mixture. Cook on low for 6-8 hours or until the meat is tender and easily pulls away from the bone.

Finishing Touches Preheat the broiler. Remove the ribs from the slow cooker and place them on a baking sheet. Brush with additional BBQ sauce and broil for 3-5 minutes until caramelized.
