Equipment

  • Crockpot

Ingredients
 

  • 2-3 pounds pork riblets (rib tips were used in photos)
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1 tablespoon liquid smoke
  • barbecue sauce of choice

Seasoning Rub

  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon paprika

Instructions
 

  • First, mix all the ingredient for the seasoning mix together. Remove the ribs from the package and pat them dry if needed. Season all the ribs heavy. The rub is good for up to 3 pounds of ribs.
  • Now, measure out the chicken broth then mix the liquid smoke in with the chicken broth. 
  • Next, arrange the riblets in the crockpot so that they all fit, you can crowd them if you need to but try not to stack them. Then, pour the chicken broth and liquid smoke mix over all the riblets. The seasoning will come off some of the ribs but this is ok.
  • The liquid should fill up where just the tops of the riblets are out. This is why I said do not stack them.
  • Cook on high for 2.5 hours. If you have a temperature probe the ribs should read 190-200F. Remove the ribs from the crockpot and baste them with barbecue sauce. If wanting to cook on low I would check the ribs around the 4-5 hour mark.
  • Place in a preheated oven to 275F for 30 minutes. You will flip the ribs at 15 minutes and baste the other side with bbq. Once they are done and sticky they are ready to serve. Enjoy!
