  • Cook in HIGH for 4 hours.
  • When the ribs are almost ready, pre-heat the oven to 200ºC and roast the vegetables.
  • Roasted vegetables: Place sliced vegetables on a baking tray, season with salt and pepper and drizzle with olive oil. Bake for 15 minutes at 200ºC.
  • When the ribs are ready remove them from the slow cooker and place them on the baking tray (move the vegetables to one side).
  • Honey-soy sauce: In a medium bowl combine the honey, soy sauce, pepper, garlic and the liquid from the slow cooker.
  • Brush the ribs from both sides with the sauce. Bake for 15 minutes at 200-220ºC.Open the oven and brush the ribs (just the upper-meaty part) every 5 minutes, so 3 times in total. This will create an amazing caramelized layer.
  • Allow the ribs to cool and rest for 2-3 minutes and remove the bones. They will fall off easily.
  • Assembly tacos: Place some meat in a warm tortilla, add some roasted vegetables and one tablespoon guacamole. Serve warm and enjoy!
