Slow Cooker Root Beef BBQ Pork Ribs (Page 2 ) | August 21, 2024

Start by removing the silver skin from the back of the ribs. You can do this by sliding the back of a spoon underneath the membrane and then peeling it away with your fingers.

Season the ribs generously with salt and pepper.

Cook the Ribs:

Place the seasoned ribs in a 6-quart slow cooker. Pour the root beer over the ribs to give them a sweet and tenderizing bath.

Cover and set your slow cooker on low for 5 hours or on high for 3 hours. This slow cooking process allows the ribs to become wonderfully tender.

Add the BBQ Sauce:

After cooking, remove the ribs from the slow cooker and discard the liquid.

Return the ribs to the slow cooker and slather them with your barbecue sauce, making sure they’re well coated.

Cook on high for another hour to let the sauce caramelize slightly and cling to the ribs.

Serving Suggestions:

Gently remove the ribs from the slow cooker and they’re ready to serve. For a little extra pizzazz and if you love the smoky flavor of grilled ribs, brush them with a bit more sauce and pop them under the broiler for a few minutes until they get nice and charred.

Pro Tip: The broiler step is a great trick to mimic the finish of grilled ribs, adding those delightful crispy edges and a touch of smokiness.

This Slow Cooker Root Beer BBQ Pork Ribs recipe is perfect for when you want the deliciousness of BBQ without the fuss. It’s a great dish for casual family dinners or for wowing guests at your next gathering. Enjoy the ease and the incredible flavors of your new favorite rib recipe!
