Slow Cooker Short Ribs
Calories
Ingredients
- ¾ cup apple cider vinegar
- ¼ cup white vinegar
- 2 tbsp molasses
- 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1 cup ketchup
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 2 tsp paprika
- 1 tsp kosher salt
- ½ tsp black pepper
- ¾ tsp liquid smoke
- 2 tbsp brown sugar
- 2 tbsp neutral oil (grapeseed, corn, or vegetable)
- 2 lb ribs (spare, baby back, or country-style)
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine all ingredients except for the oil and ribs. Whisk to combine and dissolve the sugar. Set aside.
- If using a rack of ribs, cut into portions that contain 1-2 bones.
- Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the ribs on each side until well browned, 4-6 minutes per side. Be sure to not crowd the skillet or the ribs will steam and not brown.
- Once browned, place the ribs in a 4-6 quart slow cooker.
- Pour the prepared sauce over the ribs, making sure all are coated.
- Cover with lid and cook on low 6-8 hours. The ribs will be fall-apart tender. If a thickened sauce is desired, pour into a small kettle and simmer for 10-15 minutes to condense and thicken.
- Serve immediately and enjoy.
