Ingredients
  • RIBS
  • 3 pounds of pork ribs
  • 2-3 cups BBQ sauce
  • Coarse salt
  • Pepper
  • BBQ SAUCE
  • 2 cups Simply Heinz ketchup
  • ½ cup raw agave syrup
  • 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce (check for a gluten-free brand)
  • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 1 and ½ tablespoons garlic salt
  • 1 tablespoon cayenne pepper
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
Instructions
  1. Heat your oven to 400 degrees. Sprinkle salt and pepper liberally over both sides of the ribs. Put the ribs on a large baking sheet covered with foil and bake for 15 minutes or until the ribs begin to brown.
  2. While the ribs are cooking, mix all the BBQ sauce ingredients together in a bowl until combined.
  3. Cut the ribs in half and transfer them to your slow cooker. Add 2-3 cups of the BBQ sauce and cook on high for 6 hours or until the meat is falling off the bone. **Seriously, these ribs were so tender that some of them didn't even make it out of the slow cooker.
  4. Reheat the oven to 400 degrees. Transfer the ribs back to the baking sheet, baste the ribs with some of the sauce from the slow cooker, and bake for another 15 minutes so that the sauce caramelizes on top of the ribs.
  5. Top with more BBQ sauce (or not because they are delicious on their own) and enjoy!
