Cut ribs in to sections (about 3 ribs each)
Arrange ribs around the sides and the bottom of your slow cooker - "meaty" side down, trying not to overlap the ribs as much as possible
Spread apple slices over the ribs.
Combine onion, applesauce, brown sugar, vinegar and ½ of the barbecue sauce in a blender or food processor. Pulse until smooth.
Pour sauce over ribs.
Cook on high for 5 hours, or on low for 8 hours, until ribs are tender.
Carefully remove the ribs from your slow cooker and brush with remaining BBQ sauce.
If you want more crispy ribs,you can transfer them to a foil-lined baking sheet and broil for about 4 minutes,
Serve and enjoy!
