Root Beer Ribs

Who knew that ribs could be this easy! Just add your favorite barbecue seasoning, root beer, and barbecue sauce, and your dinner is done.

Ingredients

    • 1 rack of pork back ribs (about 2–4 lbs/1–2 kg)
    • 2–4 tbsp (30–60 mL) Smoky Barbecue Rub (1 tbsp/15 mL rub per 1 lb/500 g ribs)
    • 6 oz (175 mL) root beer
    • 1–1½ cups (250–375 mL) barbecue sauce

Directions

  1. Remove the membrane from the rack of ribs (see cook’s tip).
  2. Season both sides of the ribs with the barbecue rub, and then cut between the bones to separate into four portions to fit into the pan.
  3. Add the root beer to the Rockcrok® Dutch Oven and then add the ribs. Cover and place in the Rockcrok® Digital Slow Cooker Stand. Cook on LOW for 6–8 hours or on HIGH for 4 hours. During the last hour of cooking, add the barbecue sauce.
