By Susan52

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 cups ketchup
• 1/2 cup light brown sugar
• 3 tablespoons white vinegar
• 3 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
• 2 tablespoons yellow mustard
• 1/3 cup finely chopped onions
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• 4 pounds baby back ribs, cut into individual ribs
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil

Preparation

Step 1

In a medium bowl, combine ketchup, brown sugar, vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, and onions, mix well and set aside.

In a small bowl, combine garlic powder, salt, and pepper; mix well. Rub the seasoning mixture over the ribs, coating thoroughly.

In a large skillet over high heat, heat the oil; brown ribs in batches 3 to 4 minutes, turning once. Place ribs in slow cooker and pour barbecue sauce over ribs.

Cover and cook on low setting 7 to 8 hours, or until ribs are fork-tender. Serve with sauce.


Notes:

• If you want your ribs to be cooked sooner, just set your slow cooker to high and they'll be done in 4 to 5 hours.
