How to Make Awsome Ribs
- Cut the rack of ribs into smaller portions of 2 or 3 bones each.
- Bring a large pot of water (about 6 quarts) to a boil.
- Add 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, and 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes to the boiling water.
- Add the ribs to the seasoned water and boil for 20 minutes.
- Remove the ribs from the water, drain well, and let them rest for 30 minutes.
- Preheat your outdoor grill to high heat.
- Lightly coat the ribs with 1/2 cup of your favorite barbecue sauce.
- Grill the ribs over high heat for 5-10 minutes per side, until nicely charred.
- Transfer the grilled ribs to a slow cooker.
- Pour the remaining barbecue sauce (about 1/2 cup) and 1 bottle (12 ounces) of beer over the ribs. Ensure at least half of the ribs are submerged in the sauce mixture.
- Cover the slow cooker and cook on high for 3 hours.
- Check the ribs every hour. Add more beer (1/4 cup at a time) if the sauce becomes too thick. Stir gently to ensure all ribs are coated in the sauce.
- The ribs are done when the meat is easily falling off the bone. Enjoy!
