Ingredients
- 2 pounds country-style pork ribs
- 0.5 cups pure maple syrup
- 0.5 cups ketchup
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 cups water
- 2 tablespoons optional: chopped parsley for garnish
Directions
Step 1
Pat the country-style pork ribs dry with a paper towel and season them evenly with salt and pepper.
Step 2
In a small bowl, whisk together the maple syrup, ketchup, apple cider vinegar, soy sauce, minced garlic, smoked paprika, onion powder, and water to form a smooth sauce.
Step 3
Place the ribs into the slow cooker, arranging them in a single layer as much as possible.
Step 4
Pour the maple sauce evenly over the ribs, ensuring that they are well-coated.
Step 5
Cover the slow cooker with the lid and set it to cook on LOW for 6-8 hours or HIGH for 4-5 hours, until the ribs are tender and easily pull apart with a fork.
Step 6
Once done, taste the sauce and adjust seasoning if needed. If a thicker sauce is desired, transfer it to a small saucepan and simmer for 5-10 minutes to reduce.
Step 7
Serve the ribs warm, drizzled with the maple sauce. Optionally, garnish with chopped parsley for a pop of freshness.
