The best way to cook barbeque pork ribs is to start by preheating the oven to 250°F. Place the ribs on a baking sheet and cook for 2 hours. After 2 hours, drain the fat from the ribs and baste them with your favorite BBQ sauce. Cook for an additional 1-2 hours, or until the ribs are tender. Be sure to check the temperature of the ribs with a meat thermometer to ensure they are cooked to an internal temperature of 165°F. Once cooked, serve the ribs hot with extra BBQ sauce. Enjoy!
 
Unfortunately, without knowing the specific model and brand of your slow cooker, it's difficult to give you an accurate answer. I recommend consulting the manufacturer's website or manual for specific cooking times and temperatures for your slow cooker model. Alternatively, you can also search online for slow cooker barbeque pork rib recipes and adjust the cooking times and temperatures to your preference. Sorry I couldn't be of more help!
