Description

Tender pork ribs slow-cooked with a fragrant blend of garlic, rosemary, and thyme, finished under the broiler for a caramelized crust.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 3–4 lbs pork baby back ribs
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon fresh thyme, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

  3. Rub the herb paste evenly over all sides of the ribs.
  4. Sear the ribs in a hot skillet for 2-3 minutes per side until browned.
  5. Place the seared ribs into the slow cooker, curling them to fit the pot.
