Slow Cooker Ribs

Another one that takes some pre-planning, but worth the time. I do this with ribs mainly, but it’s also great for pork tenderloin and brisket.

In a bowl, mix 75% brown sugar to about 10% salt and the balance paprika, cayenne pepper, black pepper, and chipotle if you like. Of course, feel free to adjust. Whisk this with a fork, then rub it on your ribs until the ribs cannot hold any more of the spice mixture.

Then, pop it in the fridge overnight. In the morning, take the ribs out and place them in your slow cooker all day on low. By the time you’re ready for dinner, the ribs will fall off the bone. Serve with barbecue sauce if you wish, but I usually prefer a dry rub.
