Ingredients

4 1/2 lb baby back pork ribs
3/4 cup frank’s buffalo wings sauce
1/2 cup honey
3/4 cup apricot preserves
1 cup packed brown sugar
1/4 cup reduced sodium soy sauce
2 tbsp dijon mustard
1 1/2 tbsp cornstarch
1 1/2 tbsp paprika
1 1/2 tbsp packed brown sugar
2 tsp each chili powder
1 tsp each ground cumin
1/2 tsp dried thyme

Steps

Mix the paprika, chili powder, cumin, thyme, and 1 1/2 tablespoons brown sugar, then rub the mixture over the ribs.
Place the ribs in a 6-quart slow cooker and pour in the buffalo sauce, honey, apricot preserves, soy sauce, mustard, and remaining brown sugar.
Cover and cook on low for 4 hours, until the pork reaches at least 145 F and pulls away from the bones.
Heat the broiler and transfer the ribs to a foil-lined baking sheet.
Whisk the cornstarch with water, stir it into the slow cooker sauce, and simmer the sauce in a saucepan for 5 minutes.
Brush the ribs with the thickened sauce and broil 5 minutes, watching closely until the glaze bubbles and browns.
