Spicy Country Ribs
I use country ribs for this recipe because they are meatier than baby-backs and tend to have fewer bones. You could however, make this with baby-back ribs and reduce the cooking time somewhat. I like to serve them with biscuits and cole slaw on the side.
Steps
Combine the onion , ketchup , vinegar , brown sugar , salt , worcestershire , chili powder and oregano in a 4 6 quart slow cooker.
Stir in the ribs.
Cook on low heat for 6 hours , or on high for 3 hours.
Using tongs , remove the ribs from the cooker and arrange on a broiler pan.
Heat the broiler.
Pour the juices from the cooker into a bowl and place in the freezer for 10 minutes to hasten the separation of the fat.
Remove and discard the fat.
Pour the defatted juices into a saucepan.
Boil over high heat until reduced by half , about 15 minutes.
Broil the ribs about 6 inches from the heat until browned.
Serve with the remaining sauce on the side.
