Oven Cooked Barbecue Pork Ribs

Country style pork ribs were on sale this week, so I bought some.  I didn't know what to make with them, so I looked up a recipe on the internet.  Finding random recipes doesn't always turn out well, but this one was awesome.  Pork is often tough when I cook it, but this was really tender and delicious.  The original recipe is from here, but I modified it a little bit since I had country style pork ribs instead of ribs with the bone in. 

4 lbs country style pork ribs 
3/4 cup light brown sugar
1 tablespoon paprika 
1 tablespoon garlic powder 
1/2 teaspoon ground red pepper (optional) 
1 tablespoon liquid smoke
2 cups of your favorite barbecue sauce (mine is Sweet Baby Ray)

1. Preheat oven to 275 degrees f.
2. Mix together sugar and spices to make a rub.
3. Lay ribs on two layers of foil, shiny side out.  
4. Poor liquid smoke over ribs.  Apply rub to ribs on all sides. 
5. Lay two layers of foil on top of ribs and roll and crimp edges tightly, edges facing up to seal.
6. Place in a baking dish and bake for 4 hours, remove from oven. 
7. Heat Broiler
8. Remove tinfoil, drain off fat, and brush on barbecue sauce. (You can move the ribs to a broiler pan if you prefer, but I'd rather save dishes.)
9. Broil for 1 to 2 minutes on each side until sauce is cooked on and bubbly.

I made this the other day and it turned out great. Very tender and very tasty. Do you think it would work out the same in a crock pot? We are trying not to use our oven much now that it is super hot because the oven just makes our whole house too hot.

I bet it would work. It's the same idea, to cover it and cook for a long time at a low heat. I guess you could put it in tinfoil in the crock pot.
