Instructions
- Start by cutting the onion into thick slices and placing them in a layer in the bottom of the slow cooker.
- With a sharp knife,remove the membrane from the back of the ribs with a knife. Cut the ribs into portion sized pieces, usually 3-4 ribs each.
- In a small bowl mix the brown sugar and spices with a spoon until well blended. Using your fingers, rub the mixture all over the ribs, both front and back.
- Place the ribs in the slow cooker, and set to low. Cook for 6-8 hours.
- When the ribs are cooked, remove them from the slow cooker to a sheet or broil pan lined with foil.
- Preheat the broiler to high and raise the oven rack to the second highest shelf setting.
- Brush 1/2 of the BBQ sauce over the ribs, coating both sides. Place under the broiler for about 3 minutes, until the BBQ sauce starts to bubble and caramelize.
- Remove the pan from the oven and repeat with another layer of BBQ sauce. Place under the broiler again for about 3 minutes until the ribs have a second coat of caramelized sauce.
- Remove the ribs from the broiler and let stand a few minutes to cool before serving.
