Here’s a tender, fall-off-the-bone Slow Cooker Barbecued Beef Ribs recipe you can make easily at home 🍖🔥
🥩 Ingredients
- 1.5–2 kg beef ribs
- 1½ cups BBQ sauce (your favorite)
- 1 onion (sliced)
- 4 cloves garlic (minced)
- 2 tbsp brown sugar
- 1 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tsp black pepper
- 1 tsp paprika (smoked if possible)
- ½ tsp chili powder (optional, for heat)
- Salt to taste
🍲 Instructions
1. Prep the Ribs
- Pat ribs dry and season with salt, pepper, and paprika
- (Optional) Sear in a hot pan for 2–3 minutes per side for extra flavor
2. Make the Sauce
- Mix BBQ sauce, garlic, brown sugar, soy sauce, and chili powder
3. Slow Cook
- Place onions at the bottom of the slow cooker
- Add ribs on top
- Pour sauce over the ribs
👉 Cook on:
- Low: 7–8 hours (best for tenderness)
- High: 4–5 hours
🔥 Optional Finish (Highly Recommended)
- Transfer ribs to oven or grill
- Brush with extra BBQ sauce
- Broil/grill for 5–10 minutes until caramelized
😋 Tips for Perfect Ribs
- Remove the thin membrane from the back of ribs for better texture
- Don’t skip the broiling step—it gives that sticky, smoky finish
- Let ribs rest 5 minutes before serving
🍽️ Serve With
- Mashed potatoes
- Coleslaw
- Corn on the cob
- Garlic bread
If you want, I can give you a spicy desi-style BBQ ribs version or a no-sugar healthy version 👍
