The slow cooker barbecue ribs are so tender that they fall off the bone. They are also packed full of flavor. They don't take long to prepare or cook, so they're great for a quick dinner during the week or a get-together on the weekend.

Ingredients: 2 racks baby back ribs. 1 cup barbecue sauce. 1/4 cup brown sugar. 1 tablespoon paprika. 1 tablespoon garlic powder. 1 tablespoon onion powder. Salt and pepper to taste.

Instructions: BBQ sauce, brown sugar, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper should all be mixed together in a bowl. To fit the ribs in the slow cooker, cut them up into smaller pieces. Spread the spices out on the ribs by rubbing the mixture on them. Put ribs in the crock pot. Take the lid off and set the heat to low. Cook for 6 to 8 hours, or until the ribs are soft and fully cooked. When the ribs are done, take them out of the slow cooker and brush them with more barbecue sauce. Finish by putting it under the broiler for a few minutes to make the sauce caramelize.

These honey-glazed baby back ribs with a kick of whiskey marinade are sweet and smokey at the same time. Great for a BBQ or a family meal on the weekend!

Ingredients: 2 racks baby back ribs. 1 cup honey. 1/2 cup whiskey. 1/4 cup soy sauce. 3 cloves garlic, minced. 1 teaspoon onion powder. 1 teaspoon smoked paprika. 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper. Salt to taste. Chopped fresh cilantro for garnish.

Instructions: Set your grill or smoker to medium heat, which is about 275F 135C. Take off the membrane from the back of the ribs so that the flavor can get in better. Mix honey, whiskey, soy sauce, onion powder, smoked paprika, black pepper, cayenne pepper, and salt in a bowl to make the marinade. Put half of the marinade over the ribs in a large zip-top bag. Put the bag in the fridge for at least 4 hours or overnight. Keep the rest of the marinade to use as a basting sauce while you're grilling. Don't put the ribs on the grill right away; let them sit out for about 30 minutes to get room temperature. For about 2.5 to 3 hours, bast the ribs with the marinade you saved every 30 minutes while grilling them over indirect heat. For a sticky glaze, brush the ribs with more honey during the last 15 minutes of cooking on the grill. Since the meat is soft and the internal temperature has reached 190F 88C, take the ribs off the grill. After 10 minutes, cut the ribs into pieces. Add some chopped fresh cilantro as a garnish. Enjoy the honey-glazed baby back ribs with your favorite sides.
