Crock Pot Ribs Super Easy

I've been reading EN's cooking guides today....and now I'm starving!!!!!  Damn you, EN!!!  I have 3 hours left till my shift ends....
Anyway, this past week, I made crock pot ribs....  here's the 'recipe'.
   Buy a rack of ribs.  I buy the cyro packed (vacuum) baby back ribs, usually 2 rows in a pack, from local grocery  (Shop Rite).   Cut them open, hack them into 3 or 4 rib sections, and put in crock pot..
Add 1/2 an average sized bottle of your favorite BBQ sauce flavor....   (I used KC Masterpiece Low Sugar), I'm not a smokey fan, more a savory fan.  Use whatever you like.  Add 1/2 a box of brown sugar.  (I used 1/2 a pack of the Splenda brown sugar).  Turn crock pot on low, go to bed.  Somewhere between 11 or 12 hours (yep, eleven or twelve) later, turn pot off.  Ribs will be falling off the bone, sauce and sugar will have made a phenom coating, and your house will smell like heaven.    Hand out the wet wipes, and dig in.   This is, without a doubt, the easiest party meat thing I have ever made......     Mary C

I do something similar with meatballs...I throw a bag of frozen homestyle meatballs, some Pace picante sauce & some grape jelly into my crockpot, but only for about 4 hours or so.  Good for potluck.

Mmmm!

NO WAY I AM NOT MAKING YOU HUNGRY. That's your body telling you that you need MEAT :-D. Don't blame ME for your DS working RIGHT, y'hear?

A crazy woman bequeathed to me her sauce for smoke meat bits:

regular size jar grape jelly/jam
medium onion chopped fine
1/2 pound bacon chopped and fried
(onion fried in bacon grease)
half regular bottle ketchup
couple shakes tabasco sauce
handful of dried currants or raisins
quarter bottle cider vinegar (compared to jam and ketchup)

Cook this all together for a while till it's sauce. Use to baste meat that you are smoking.

If you don't smoke your meat, cook meat in crockpot with liquid, including acid stuff, and some liequid smoke. Serve with this sauce or pour the sauce in for the last couple hours. Think of the crazy woman getting her just desserts when you do so, cuz she needs it.
