This BBQ sparerib recipe is great for the slow cooker. If we want to go hiking or exploring for a few hours, I can put these spareribs into a slow cooker, and when we get back I just need to cook some rice and supper is ready! Adjust the recipe for quantity, depending on how many people you are feeding.

Slow Cooker BBQ Spareribs

4 lbs. spareribs, cut into 2-rib pieces
3/4 cup onion, chopped fine
1 cup ketchup
1 cup water
1 1/2 tsp dry mustard
1/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar
