Slow Cooker Boneless Pork Ribs



My Slow Cooker Boneless Pork Ribs are unbelievably tender and full of tangy BBQ flavor! They cook low and slow all day for juicy, fall-apart perfection!

Life Changing Tenderness!

  • Insanely Tender! Slow cooking makes these incredibly tender, falling apart with each bite. Just let them cook long enough for the best results.
  • Family Favorite! You love my fall off the bone ribs, so I created a boneless version that’s kid-friendly and perfect for everyone to enjoy!
  • Packed with Flavor! The dry rub and tangy BBQ sauce pack these ribs with bold flavor, making them juicy and irresistible.

Slow Cooker Boneless Pork Rib Ingredients

  • Are boneless pork ribs the same as country-style ribs? Yes, boneless pork ribs are the boneless version of country-style ribs.
  • Perfect Tenderness: Ribs should be fork tender and fall apart easily when done. If they are tough, cook them longer.
  • For Extra Flavor: After slow cooking, brush ribs with BBQ sauce and bake at 425ºF for 8-10 minutes for a caramelized finish.

Slow Cooker Boneless Pork Ribs Recipe

This recipe is just three simple steps: rub, sauce, then cook low and slow in the crockpot! You won’t believe how amazing they turn out for how easy the recipe is!

  1. Make the Rub: In a small bowl, whisk together the brown sugar, cumin, onion powder, garlic powder, paprika, oregano, salt, and black pepper.
  2. Season the Meat: Rub the boneless pork ribs evenly with the spice mix and then place them into a crock pot.
  3. Cook: Pour your favorite bbq sauce over the boneless ribs, then toss to coat. Place the lid on the slow cooker, then cook on LOW for 6-8 hours. You can cook them in HIGH for 3-4 hours, but they won’t be as tender. Remove and serve fresh!

Storing and Overnight Prep Hack

Save any leftover crock pot boneless pork ribs for an easy lunch the next day. Also use my overnight hack to save you time in the morning.

  • In the Refrigerator: Store leftovers in the fridge in an airtight container for up to 4 days. 
  • In the Freezer: Freeze in an airtight container for up to 3 months.
  • Prep the Night Before: Season and coat ribs in BBQ sauce the night before, refrigerate, then pop in the slow cooker the next day for tender ribs by dinner!
