Coat a 6-quart crockpot with nonstick cooking spray.
Trim excess fat from the boneless country-style pork ribs.
Warm olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Brown ribs on all sides, then place them in the crockpot.
In a medium bowl, combine chicken broth, orange marmalade, hoisin sauce, minced garlic, sesame oil, and all the seasonings. Whisk together until fully incorporated.
Pour the sauce mixture over the ribs in the crockpot and toss to coat.
Cover with the lid and cook on low for 5 to 7 hours, basting with the juices a couple of times, until the pork registers 145°F and is fall-apart tender.
Transfer the meat to a serving platter and spoon some of the sauce over it. Pass the remaining sauce at the table and serve over hot cooked white rice and a sprinkle of diced scallions.

Use the right cut of pork. I’ve had the best results with boneless country-style ribs or pork shoulder because they get super tender without drying out.
More flavors. Add a splash of soy sauce for a salty kick, or stir in red pepper flakes if you like a little heat.
Add broccoli, snap peas, or zucchini, wait until the last 30–45 minutes of cook time so they don’t turn mushy.
