Fall Off The Bone BBQ Ribs Recipe
These ribs are so simple to make - throw them in the slow cooker to tenderize all day, then toss them on the grill to caramelize the BBQ sauce and seal in all the flavors. Holy cow . . . these are amazing!
Serving6
Ingredients
- 3 pounds pork loin ribs
- 3½ cups pineapple juice, divided
- 1½ cups brown sugar
- 16 ounces BBQ Sauce, 1 bottle, (I love Famous Dave's Rich and Sassy sauce)
Instructions
- Spray the slow cooker with non-stick cooking spray (or use a slow cooker liner to make clean up a breeze!).
- Take your slab of ribs (make sure that they are defrosted) and cut into individual slabs (about 2-3 ribs each). Throw the ribs into the slow cooker.
- Mix 3 1/4 cups pineapple juice and the brown sugar together and pour over the ribs.
- Cook on HIGH heat in the slow cooker for 7-8 hours or LOW for 10-12 hours.
- After they are done in the slow cooker, use tongs to gently pull them out (they will literally fall apart when you touch them).
- Turn the grill on medium heat. While the grill is warming up, mix together the bottle of BBQ sauce and 1/4 cup of pineapple juice you saved from earlier.
- Place the ribs gently on the grill and and brush with BBQ sauce.
- Turn the ribs twice, slathering with more sauce each time (you can't have enough sauce).
- They will take about 10-15 minutes to glaze over (as soon as that sauce starts to turn sticky, you know they are done).
- Serve immediately and enjoy.
Notes
- We've also used this marinade for chicken, steak, pork, etc.
