How to Make Fall Off The Bone Ribs
What Kind of Ribs: This recipe is for baby back ribs, but if you want to use St. Louis style ribs, you can. They are meatier and longer so make sure they fit your slow cooker. They also need a longer time to cook, so do not cook them on high. Low and slow is the only way to go for them.Remove the Membrane: Use a fork, knife to get under the membrane. If it seems a bit slippery use a paper towel to grab a hold of it and pull it off. Once in a while, the butcher will have taken it off, so if you can’t find it, it’s ok.
Dry Rub: Be generous with the dry rub, if you need to double the recipe and make sure the ribs are well coated on both sides. You really want the rub everywhere so that you have great flavor. Cooking: The ribs will be best cooked slow and low, so if you have time do that. If you don’t they will still be tender and delicious on high. Broil: Putting them in the oven after you have slow-cooked them will caramelize the BBQ Sauce giving them an absolutely delectable crispy skin but still tender and juicy inside.
Slow Cook Ribs on High: If you are short on time or just remembering to make dinner cook for 3 to 4 hours long. Slow Cook Ribs on Low: Make time to cook for 6 to 7 hours if possible. It is super simple to make but so worth the wait!
