Ingredients
- 3 pounds Pork baby back ribs
- 2 teaspoons Sea salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1.5 teaspoons Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 tablespoon Liquid smoke
- 1.5 cups BBQ sauce
- 3 tablespoons Honey
- 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
Directions
Step 1
Remove the membrane from the back of the ribs for easier seasoning and maximum tenderness. Rinse the ribs under cold water and pat dry with paper towels.
Step 2
In a small bowl, mix together sea salt, black pepper, garlic powder, paprika, and onion powder. Rub the spice mixture generously over both sides of the ribs.
Step 3
Place the ribs in the crock pot, curling them along the edges if necessary to fit properly.
Step 4
Drizzle the liquid smoke over the ribs to add a smoky flavor.
Step 5
In another bowl, combine BBQ sauce, honey, and lemon zest. Stir until well mixed, then pour the mixture evenly over the ribs, ensuring they are coated thoroughly.
Step 6
Cover the crock pot with the lid and cook on low heat for 6 hours, or on high heat for 4 hours, until the ribs are tender and easily pull apart with a fork.
Step 7
Optional: For a caramelized finish, preheat your broiler to high. Remove the ribs from the crock pot and place them on a baking sheet lined with foil. Brush with additional BBQ sauce and broil for 2-3 minutes until the sauce bubbles and slightly chars.
Step 8
Serve hot with your favorite sides, such as cornbread, coleslaw, or roasted vegetables. Enjoy your Seashells Crock Pot BBQ Ribs!
