With a perfect blend of honey, garlic, and soy sauce, this easy dump-and-go recipe delivers fork-tender ribs with zero fuss. Ideal for busy nights or relaxed weekends—no stress, all flavor.
1 rack of baby back ribs (about 2–2.5 lbs)
4 cloves garlic, minced
¼ cup dark soy sauce
¼ cup sweet soy sauce
¼ cup raw honey
½ tsp onion powder
½ tsp paprika
½ tsp cumin
Trim excess fat from the ribs and cut into 2–3 sections to fit your crockpot.
Combine minced garlic, dark soy sauce, sweet soy sauce, honey, onion powder, paprika, and cumin in a bowl—stir to blend.
Place ribs in the crockpot and pour the sauce over them, making sure they’re well coated.
Cover and cook on low for 6–7 hours (or high for 3–4 hours) until ribs are fall-off-the-bone tender.
Optional broil: Transfer ribs to a baking sheet, brush with extra sauce, and broil for 3–4 minutes to crisp the edges.
Protein-rich and loaded with flavor
Serve these ribs with steamed rice, roasted veggies, or a crisp salad for a hands-off meal that tastes like you spent all afternoon cooking. Simple, satisfying, and perfect for sinking into flavor without the fuss.
