Ingredients
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1 tablespoon sweet Hungarian paprika
2 teaspoons freshly cracked black pepper
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
5 pounds bone-in country-style pork ribs (about 8 ribs, 1 1/2 to 2 inches thick)
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1 large onion, sliced into 1-inch wedges
One 12-ounce peach soda, preferably Nehi
1 cup barbecue sauce
1/2 cup peach preserves
1/4 cup pickled cherry pepper relish
Directions
Special equipment:
a 6-quart slow cooker- Mix the salt, paprika, black pepper and cayenne in a small bowl. Sprinkle both sides of the pork ribs with the spice mixture.
- Add the garlic and onion to a 6-quart slow cooker and place the pork ribs on top.
- In a medium bowl, mix together the peach soda and barbecue sauce and pour evenly over the top of the ribs.
- Cook until the pork is very tender, on low for 6 to 8 hours or on high for 3 to 4 hours.
- Transfer the ribs to a foil-lined baking sheet fitted with a wire rack. Position an oven rack a couple of inches away from the broiler and set to broil on high.
- Add 2 tablespoons of the liquid from the slow cooker to a small bowl, then add the peach preserves and pickled cherry pepper relish. Stir everything to combine.
- Generously brush the sauce over the top of the ribs and broil until the glaze is caramelized and bubbling, 5 to 7 minutes.
