Slow Cooker Rib Meat

Ingredients

• 4 pounds pork baby back ribs


• salt and pepper


• garlic powder, onion powder (about 1/2 teaspoon each)

For the Sauce:

• 2 cups of your favorite barbecue sauce


• 1 cup ketchup


• 1/2 cup packed brown sugar


• 4 tablespoons red wine vinegar


• 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce


• 2 teaspoons dried oregano


• (optional) 1 Tablespoon liquid smoke (if you like a smokey flavor)


• (optional) dash hot sauce (my bbq sauce was spicy enough already)

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.


2. Place ribs in a shallow baking dish and season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Bake for 15 minutes and then turn over and bake for 15 more minutes. Drain fat.


3. In a medium bowl combine BBQ sauce, ketchup, brown sugar, vinegar, Worcestershire, oregano, and liquid smoke and hot sauce if desired.


4. Place ribs in a large slow cooker (at least 6 quart). I curled mine around but you can cut them in half if you need to. Pour sauce on top and cook on low for 6-8 hours or until tender.


5. If you want to carmelize your bbq sauce put them back in the oven for 15 minutes at 400 degrees. Totally your preference though.
