Slow Cooker Country Style Ribs with BBQ sauce cooked until juicy and tender

Although I am all about the smoky, charred goodness of a great barbecue feast, the last place on earth you’d find me is standing by a hot pit tending meat. Lucky for me, G enjoys cooking outdoors and fires up the grill every chance he gets.

But on days when I have a mad craving for BBQ flavors, and my in-house pitmaster can’t be peeled away from the TV, these slow cooker BBQ country style ribs are my delicious solution.

Country Style Ribs cooked in the slow cooker with homemade BBQ sauce for super tender, flavorful meat

In the mood for summer food but not up to the trouble of getting the charcoal going? This country-style pork ribs slow cooker recipe is your answer. Other than the few minutes needed to sear the meat, it’s mostly hands-off.

Throw the ingredients into the crock pot, go about your day’s business, and have it do the work. With such minimal effort, you won’t believe the mouthwatering aroma and robust flavors of these ribs. They’re melt-in-your-mouth tender and loaded with sweet and tangy flavors!

How Long Do Ribs Take in the Slow Cooker?

About 7 to 8 hours on LOW or 4 to 5 hours on HIGH in the slow cooker.

What is a Good Side Dish for Ribs?

I usually serve them with loaded potato salad, tossed greens, and a crusty loaf to sop up the sauce but they’ll be amazing with any of your cookout favorites such as mac and cheese, grilled corn cobs, and collard greens.

You can also shred the meat and pile on kaiser rolls along with coleslaw for a scrumptious pulled pork sandwich!

    We love cooking bbq ribs in the slow cooker too! In fact, it’s probably the meal I use my slow cooker for the most so I’ll have to try your recipe next time.

    Ribs can be a pain to make, but the slow cooker makes them so much easier. I bet they are super tender and fall off the bone.
