Slow Cooker Blueberry Ribs

Level: Medium | Prep Time: 10 min | Cook Time: 6-8 hours | Serves: 3-6

Tender slow cooker baby back ribs seasoned with Pasolivo BBQ Rub and finished with a sweet and smoky glaze of Blueberry Bourbon Pecan Jam and Memphis BBQ Sauce for summer backyard cookouts.

Ingredients

Preparations

  1. Place the rack of ribs on a baking sheet. Remove the membrane from the back by loosening it with a knife or spoon and pulling it off using a paper towel for grip.
  2. Trim any excess fat and check for small bone fragments along the edges. Cut the rack in half to help it fit in the slow cooker.
  3. Pat the ribs dry with paper towels. Lightly coat both sides with Pasolivo Savory BBQ Rub, about 1 tablespoon per side.
  4. Pour ¼ cup apple cider vinegar into the bottom of the slow cooker.
  5. Place the ribs inside, standing them upright if possible. If needed, prop them using a rolled piece of foil to keep them elevated.
  6. Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours, until the ribs are fork-tender and reach an internal temperature of at least 190°F, or 200-205°F for best texture. Avoid removing the lid during cooking to maintain steady heat and moisture.
  7. Preheat your oven to broil or preheat grill to high heat. Line a baking sheet with foil and transfer ribs.
  8. In a small bowl, mix the Pasolivo Blueberry Bourbon Pecan Jam and Pasolivo Memphis BBQ Sauce to create a glaze. Brush generously over the ribs, coating all sides evenly.
  9. Broil or grill the ribs for 5-10 minutes, until the sauce is caramelized, sticky, and glossy. If broiling, place ribs on the top rack and watch closely to prevent burning.
  10. Let the ribs rest for 5 minutes before slicing between the bones and serving.
