Melt In Your Mouth Ribs

Ingredients

  • Salt and Pepper

Directions

  1. Cut your rack of ribs into 3 equal parts. Fill a large pot with water and place ribs and garlic in to boil. Boil for 45 minutes. (You can do this part in your Ninja 3-in-1 Cooking System …simply turn Ninja to Stovetop on high, fill with water 3/4 full and let simmer for 60 minutes.)
  2. In a separate bowl mix BBQ sauce, apple cider vinegar and brown sugar. Stir well.
  3. Strain water and place ribs in your Ninja (crockpot or oven) on high.  Salt and pepper ribs generously. Cover ribs with 2 cups of BBQ sauce mixture and let cook in Ninja for 2.5 hours. 
  4. After slow cooking for 2.5 hours add the remaining 1 cup of BBQ sauce mixture (I actually like my ribs REALLY sauced so I add another 2 cups here) and carefully cover ribs, by spreading with the back of a spoon or sauce brush. Cook for another 30 minutes to get a final carmelization of the sauce on your ribs.
  5. They are done when you poke a fork into them and they fall apart…at that point taste the amazing goodness as they simply melt in your mouth!

    Hi. I’m confused..
    In Step 3, you say, “Strain water and place ribs in your Ninja (crockpot or oven).”
    ..WHICH ONE??
    a. If crockpot Ninja SLOW COOK setting, should it be HIGH or LOW for the 2-3 hours?
    b. If Ninja OVEN setting, what temperature?? And also for 2-3 hours?
    Thanks!
