These slow cooker ribs are the best — they turn out perfect every time! They cook in a crockpot until tender, then are covered with barbeque sauce and finished in the oven for fall-apart ribs. Perfect for during the week as the slow cooker does most of the work!

Ingredients

• 3 pounds baby back ribs, trimmed
• salt and ground black pepper, to taste
• ½ cup water
• ½ onion, sliced
• 1 clove garlic, minced
• 1 (18 ounce) bottle barbeque sauce

Directions

1. Gather all ingredients.
2. Season ribs with salt and pepper.
3. Pour 1/2 cup water into the slow cooker, then add ribs. Scatter onion and garlic over top. Cover and cook on Low for 8 hours or High for 4 hours.
4. When the ribs are almost finished, preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
5. Transfer ribs from the slow cooker to a baking sheet; discard onion and garlic. Coat ribs with barbeque sauce.
6. Bake ribs in the preheated oven until sauce caramelizes and sticks to meat, 10 to 15 minutes.
7. Enjoy!
