Crock Pot Ribs... Dry

[Raazor]

I tried these. They cook 7 hours in a crock pot without any sauce, water, nuthing. Throw em in dry with only a rub. Stand them up, set on low, 7 hours later take them out and hit the oven broiler on them for 4 minutes with bbq sauce.

How to Make Memphis-Style Ribs in the Slow-Cooker - YouTube

My family loved them. The meat literally fell off the bone. That's what I don't like. I want to chew the meat off the bone and not have it be like stew meat.

It was easy peasy and there's a ton of YouTube recipes.

Meh :shrug:

It's no McRib, but how were they?

Edit: Nevermind you posted a follow up as I was typing. :seasix:

:funniest::funniest::funniest:

Personally, I'd rather have the McRib. Flavor was great, I just don't like that 'stew meat' texture on a rib.

[Steve_R]

I’ll stick with smoking them.

buried in snow here but I agree. I've been working at making a good St. Louis style rib in the house for so long and I just can't master it.

Best I produced was an oven recipe that was close but not quite there.

You had me until BBQ sauce....

:yesnod: I know exactly what you are talking about. My feeling is that they are overdone if they are falling off the bone.

too much moisture being closed in.

I'm going to try a Crock Pot recipe next weekend that cooks them in Coke-a-Cola. Has 1000 reviews and 5 stars.

But in the end, I've got to continue experimenting with them in the oven. I've got to get the time down...

How long with foil over leaving the moisture in... how long with foil off letting the moisture out.

I'm close! But just need to keep grinding it out.

Thread fail unless your surprised the next morning about what you cooked and posted on the interent.\

No. $14 at Walmart

Try rubbing them down and leaving uncovered in the chill chest for 24 or so. That will pull quite a bit of moisture out of the meat. And get some real BBQ sauce please. That simple sugar syrup you are using adds nothing to the flavor. Perhaps some Stubbs Original if sauce in a bottle is ok.

Then cut the time back 1/2 hour at a try until you get to textural nirvana. Crock pot ribs can be quite good if the details are sorted.

[Raazor]

Stubbs is my go-to :seasix: Had a blizzard so just used what was in the fridge.

Crock pot ribs minus the ribs and meat. :hurray:

[Cybercowboy]

If you're not smoking the ribs, why even? It's the whole point of eating pork candy, you gots to have the smokes.

[kingpin]

You overcooked them if they fall of the bone. Plus too much moisture in a crock pot for what you want.
You can try less time and maybe cracking the cover open slightly.

BTW I've never ate anything out of a crock pot/slow cooker that didn't end up haveing the texture of a stewed meat.

:iagree: I use the crock pot for pot roast and other cheap meats. That’s about it.

The only way to make something tasty in a crock pot, like say beef short ribs, is to brown the crap out of them before slow cooking. At that point you've already got your dutch oven dirty so you may as well just braise them off at that point over a low burner or in the oven. But you can sear and then put into a crock pot, or even get a crock pot with a metal insert that you can sear in (I happen to have one, it's OK but not great for that.) I should say that my wife has one, I'd never use it but have one if you know what I mean.

I made braised beef short ribs yesterday and they were great. Seasoned very well with salt and pepper. Seared them really hard in a heavy enamel-coated dutch oven, drained all the excess fat, then cooked off half a can of tomato paste before adding the braising liquid. It was several kinds of dried chilies (re-hydrated in hot water) guadillo, ancho, chipotle, and de arbols. Roasted sliced onion and about 8 roasted garlic cloves, pureed that up in the old Vitamix with about six cups of water, and cooked over low heat on the cook top for 4 hours+. Then I tossed in some acorn squash at the end, plated with full fat plain Greek yogurt, cilantro, and lime wedges. Some nice mashed potatoes and green salad to finish it off. Fed five of us with 8 short ribs with a little leftover.

May have to give that crock pot for ribs try, looks delicious. :seasix:

I know that if you were in a competition, you don't want the meat to fall off the bone, but honestly, when I cook ribs, that is how I like them. They look great!

Where’s the fun of a BBQ if ya can’t drink beer, tell the wife to get away...

smoke dem ribs, wrap in Butcher Paper paper I do....

typically 3-2-1 method for St Louis ribs or 2-2-1 for Baby Back ribs....

grille by choice Kamado Joe or Egg type, 250f degrees....

All dry. Use the Rendezvous dry rub and just sit back and watch time pass...

Of course no snow here like Montkucky area

Well, I was raised in the mountains of Va, so as a fellow hillbilly, I'm on their side!:lol:
