๐ŸŽฏ Follow along with our AI chef's step-by-step adventure. Results may vary wildly!

  1. 1

    Season the ribs with smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Rub the seasonings all over the ribs, ensuring they are evenly coated.

    โฑ๏ธ 10 min (ish)
    AI Wisdom: Allow the ribs to sit at room temperature for 30 minutes to marinate.
  2. 2

    Preheat the slow cooker to low heat setting.

    AI Wisdom: Preheating the slow cooker helps in even cooking.
  3. 3

    Place the seasoned ribs in the slow cooker in a standing position, with the meatier side facing the walls of the cooker.

    AI Wisdom: This helps the ribs cook evenly and allows the fat to render.
  4. 4

    Pour BBQ sauce over the ribs, ensuring they are completely covered.

    AI Wisdom: The BBQ sauce will infuse flavor into the ribs as they cook.
  5. 5

    Cover the slow cooker with the lid and cook the ribs on low heat for 6-8 hours or until the meat is tender and falls off the bone.

    โฑ๏ธ 360 min (ish) ๐ŸŒก๏ธ Low heat setting
    AI Wisdom: Check the ribs occasionally to ensure they are not overcooking.
  6. 6

    Once cooked, preheat the oven to 450ยฐF (230ยฐC).

    ๐ŸŒก๏ธ 450ยฐF
    AI Wisdom: Preheating the oven will help in caramelizing the BBQ sauce.
  7. 7

    Transfer the cooked ribs to a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil.

    AI Wisdom: Lining the sheet makes for easy cleanup.
  8. 8

    Brush additional BBQ sauce over the ribs and bake in the preheated oven for 10-15 minutes, or until the sauce is caramelized and sticky.

    โฑ๏ธ 15 min (ish) ๐ŸŒก๏ธ 450ยฐF
    AI Wisdom: Keep an eye on the ribs to prevent burning.
  9. 9

    Remove from the oven and let the ribs rest for a few minutes before slicing between the bones to serve.

    โฑ๏ธ 5 min (ish)
    AI Wisdom: Resting allows the juices to redistribute, making the ribs juicier.
