Lazy Man's Ribs

2-1/2 lbs pork baby back ribs, cut into 8 pieces
2 tsp. Cajun seasoning
1 onion, sliced
1 C. ketchup
1/2 C. packed brown sugar
1/3 C. orange juice
1/3 C. cider vinegar
1/4 C. molasses
2 TB. worchestershire sauce
1 TB. barbecue sauce
1 tsp. stone-ground mustard
1 tsp. paprika
1/2 tsp. garlic powder
dash salt
5 tsp. cornstarch
1 TB. water

Rub the ribs with Cajun seasoning.  Layer the ribs and onion in a 5 qt. slow cooker.  In a small bowl, combine the ketchup, brown sugar, orange juice, vinegar, molasses, worchestershire sauce, barbecue sauce, mustard, paprika, garlic powder, and salt.  Pour all over ribs.  Cover and cook on low 5-6hours or until meat is tender.  After that, remove ribs from slow cooker and set aside.  Strain the cooking juices and skim off the fat.  Transfer to a saucepan.  Combine cornstarch and water into a smooth paste; blend into juices.  Bring juices to a boil and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened.  Serve overtop of ribs.
