If you have been looking for slow cooker rib recipes, here are 2 to try. I think you will want to make both of them more than once. I have included a recipe for both pork and beef slow cooker ribs. Both of these recipes are quick to put together and easy to make. Both recipes taste very good, with very tender meat. I think you will be happy you tried them.

Pork Spare Ribs

Ingredients:

2-3 pounds pork spare ribs
1 can tomato soup
1 small onion, chopped
1 clove garlic, minced
3 teaspoons brown sugar
2 tablespoons prepared mustard
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper

Preparation:
Place spare ribs in slow cooker.

Mix together soup, onion, garlic, brown sugar, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, salt and pepper. Pour sauce into cooker and stir until ribs have been coated on all sides. Cover with lid.

Set slow cooker on LOW setting and cook for 5 to 7 hours. Ribs are done when tender and meat pulls away from the bone easily. Don’t overcook or the meat will fall off the bone into the sauce.

Tip: You can substitute thicker country style ribs for spare ribs, but will need to allow up to an hour additional cooking time.

Beef Ribs

Ingredients:

3-4 pounds beef ribs, fat trimmed
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 clove garlic, minced
1/2 teaspoon thyme
1/2 teaspoon mustard powder
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
2 packages French Onion instant soup
2 cups water

Preparation:
In a medium mixing bowl, mix the flour with a little water to form a paste. Add the rest of the water, brown sugar, garlic, thyme, mustard, pepper and dry soup mix. Stir well.

Place the beef into slow cooker or crock pot. Mix together until all side of ribs are coated with seasoning mixture. Cover with lid.

Set slow cooker on LOW setting for 8 to 9 hours or on HIGH setting for 4 1/2 to 5 1/2 hours. Ribs are done when tender and pull away easily from the bone.

Tip: Serve over cooked egg noodles or with mashed potatoes. Leftover beef is great to use for making open faced roast beef sandwiches.
