Prep Time
This recipe requires a bit of preparation time before the ribs can be cooked in the crock pot. First, the ribs must be trimmed of any excess fat and the membrane must be removed from the back of the ribs. The ribs should then be seasoned with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Next, the ribs should be browned on all sides in a large skillet. This step helps to lock in the flavor of the ribs and adds a golden color.
Cook Time
Once the ribs are browned and seasoned, they can be placed in the crock pot. The crock pot should be filled with the vegetables, herbs, and spices of your choice. The ribs should then be cooked on low heat for 8-10 hours. The longer the ribs cook, the more tender they will become. The ribs are done when they are tender and the meat is easily falling off the bone.
