Ingredients
  

  • 2 cloves garlic crushed
  • 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon ground coriander
  • 3/4 cup barbecue sauce divided
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 rack pork ribs about 2 pounds

Instructions
 

  • In a bowl, stir together the garlic, Worcestershire sauce, brown sugar, smoked paprika, ground coriander, 1/2 cup of the barbecue sauce, salt, and pepper until well combined.
    Savory barbecue sauce with spices in a white bowl on neutral background.
  • Cut the rack of ribs in half if needed to fit into the slow cooker. Brush the ribs all over with the sauce mixture, coating evenly. Arrange them in the slow cooker and pour any remaining sauce from the bowl over the top.

  • Cover and cook on low for 6-7 hours or on high for 3-4 hours, until the meat is tender and begins to pull away from the bones. The internal temperature should register between 190°F and 203°F at the thickest part.
  • Preheat the oven to 400ºF and line a baking tray with parchment paper or foil.
  • Using tongs, carefully transfer the cooked ribs to the prepared baking sheet. Brush with the reserved 1/4 cup barbecue sauce.

  • Serve warm with extra barbecue sauce on the side, if desired.
