Ingredients
  

Main
  • 2 pounds beef chuck country style ribs
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • 1/2 cup barbecue sauce
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Equipment

  • Slow cooker
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Cutting board
  • Sharp knife
  • Whisk

Method
 

  1. Trim any excess fat from the ribs.
  2. Sprinkle salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and smoked paprika evenly over the ribs.
  3. Sear the ribs in a hot skillet for 2-3 minutes on each side if desired.
  4. Pour the beef broth and barbecue sauce into the slow cooker.
  5. Arrange the seasoned ribs in the slow cooker, ensuring they are submerged in the liquid.
  6. Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours or high for 3-4 hours.
  7. Check ribs for tenderness with a fork; they should easily pull apart.
  8. Remove the ribs and serve with sauce from the slow cooker.

Notes

For an extra kick, brush more barbecue sauce on the ribs during the last 30 minutes of cooking.
