Crock Pot Hawaiian BBQ Ribs
It makes making these Crock Pot Hawaiian BBQ Ribs so easy! I love it when crock pot recipes only call for a few ingredients. It makes my life so much easier and saves money in the kitchen.
I love bbq ribs and was so excited when I found the new (affiliate link) Sweet Baby Ray’s Hawaiian Style BBQ sauce at the grocery store.
This Crock Pot Hawaiian BBQ Ribs recipe only has 3 ingredients. Plus the spices for a rub. You can skip the rub if you like. It is not necessary but it does add another layer of flavor.

Hi Arlene — I just discovered your site and am thrilled with the selection of recipes and all the other great information you generously share! I love ribs, but have always been hesitant (or intimidated) to make them, but this crock pot recipe looks too good (and easy) to pass up. Question: Did you use spareribs or baby backs? Can either one be used in this recipe? Thank you so much!

Thank you so much. Readers like you are behind the inspiration of all my recipes. You could use any type of ribs you have on hand. I used baby back ribs. Thank you for being a reader. I appreciate it very much that you took the time to leave a comment. Enjoy the recipe! I plan on enjoying this recipe myself on Memorial Day!

Will it make a difference if you brown ribs lightly b4 putting them into crockpot ?

I don’t think you would get the same color or flavor if you brown before cooking. The lovely color comes from the sugars in in the bbq sauce and pineapple pieces.
