Slow cooker ribs

Since it's a bit cold to be on the grill and I do not have a smoker-next spring, I figured I share a recipe, nerf proofed!

1 bottle of your favorite bbq sauce

2 racks of baby back ribs or st louis style

olive oil

2 potatoes- large chunks

3 onions- sliced

colgin liquid smoke

slow cooker- the larger the better, reduce portion size if small'

your favorite rub or 1tsp salt, 1/2 tsp of ground whatever pepper, 1/4 cup brown sugar, 1/2 tsp of ground mustard.

Rip the back fat off the ribs. Start the broiler portion of your oven. Cut rib racks in 3 bone portions and place on a baking sheet, brush on the olive oil starting with the top side of the ribs, be generous with the rub. Once you coated them all, flip them and repeat. Pour three Tbs of liquid smoke on the pan itself. IMPORTANT: Make sure your oven rack is not at the closest position to the broiler. Broil for 15 mins and flip to do the otherside at 6-8 minutes.

While this is happening cut the potatoes and onions and place the potatoes on the bottom of your slow cooker. Pour 1/2 cup of water into it. Add three Tbs of liquid smoke.

Layer the ribs upon the potatoes, if you need to do another layer put some of the sliced onions in between them. Layer the topmost ribs with the rest of the onions. Set it to low for 7-8 hours. Take the ribs out place them on a plate. Your onions and potatoes are edible, there will be a smokey flavour to them. If you want to use them as a side, add sea salt or kosher or whatever type of salt you have on hand to taste.

Coat the ribs in the sauce of choice, do not go nuts, a cup should suffice, keep the rest for dipping. Back in the slow cooker on top of the onions and potatoes, low for 1 hour more and enjoy.
