Stewed spare ribs with BBQ sauce 燒汁茄醬燜排骨

I recently bought a 3.5l slow cooker and it's been one of my best purchases ever! I have cooked congees, stews and soups with the slow cooker and they all turned out divine. Meats (even cheap cuts) became meltingly tender, yet retained its flavours and juicy textures. I no longer have to worry about congee getting burned or spilled over, and there is little evaporation involved and minimal risk of soup drying up.

This spare ribs with BBQ sauce recipe is fairly easy to prepare. The spare ribs were simmered to perfection and so tender and moist that they fall off the bone.


Ingredients
2 slabs spare ribs
1 cup BBQ sauce of your choice
2 tbsp tomato sauce
2 tbsp honey mustard
Dash of black pepper
10 button mushrooms, quartered
1 brown onion, sliced
3 cloves garlic, chopped
1 tbsp cooking oil

Method
Marinate spare ribs with BBQ sauce, tomato sauce, honey mustard and black pepper for a few hours.

Place sliced onions in the bottom of the slow cooker. Arrange whole slab of spare ribs on top of the onion. Pour in the marinade. Cook on high for 3-4 hours or low for 6-7 hours.

Heat oil in pan and sauté garlic and mushrooms. Pour sauce from spare ribs over mushrooms. Dish and serve.
