Slow Cooker Short Ribs

As on YouTube  Wyse Guide

INGREDIENTS - 3/4 cup apple cider vinegar - 1/4 cup white vinegar - 2 tablespoons molasses - 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce - 1 cup ketchup - 2 garlic cloves, minced - 2 teaspoons paprika - 1 teaspoon salt - 1/2 teaspoon pepper - 3/4 teaspoon liquid smoke - 2 tablespoons brown sugar - 2 tablespoons neutral oil (grapeseed, corn or vegetable) - 2 pounds spare, baby back or country-style ribs INSTRUCTIONS In a large bowl, combine all ingredients except for the oil and ribs. Whisk to combine and dissolve the sugar. Set aside. If using a rack of ribs, cut into portions that contain 1-2 bones. Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the ribs on each side until well browned, 4-6 minutes per side. Be sure to not crowd the skillet or the ribs will steam and not brown. Once browned, place the ribs in a 4-6 quart slow cooker. Pour the prepared sauce over the ribs, making sure all are coated. Cover with lid and cook on low 6-8 hours. The ribs will be fall-apart tender. If a thickened sauce is desired, pour into a small kettle and simmer for 10-15 minutes to condense and thicken. Serve immediately and enjoy.
