BBQ SpAre riBS
For fabulous, rich, tasty BBQ pork spare ribs, the Programmable
Slow Cooker is your best friend. Whether you finish these under the broiler
or over a hot charcoal grill, these meaty ribs are good to the bone!
Cook: 5:00 – 6:00 HIGH
Serves 6 - 8
1-1/2 - 2 full slabs (4 – 5 lbs.) pork spare ribs, brisket removed
Dry Rub
1 cup chili powder 2 teaspoons cumin
2 tablespoons garlic powder 4 tablespoons seasoned salt
1 tablespoon onion powder BBQ sauce, your choice
Combine all dry rub ingredients in a small bowl. Mix well.
Remove sliver skin from the backside of the slabs, if desired. Cut into half slabs to fit
the stoneware liner.
Rub ribs well with the dry rub. Reserve leftover rub. Wrap ribs in plastic
and refrigerate 4 to 6 hours.
Program the Slow Cooker for HIGH; set the TIME between
5:00 – 6:00 hours. Add the ribs, close the lid, and allow to cook
in the dry stoneware liner, until fork tender.
IMPORTANT: Do not overcook unless you want the meat to fall off the bones.
Remove ribs from stoneware liner to foil-lined baking sheet.
Dust with remaining rub. Brush BBQ sauce generously onto both sides
of the ribs and finish browning under the broiler or on a charcoal grill
for 10 to 20 minutes per side.
