Bready or Not: BBQ Ribs in the Crock Pot
I love my slow cooker. I love that it makes meat all amazing and delicious with little effort on my part. It's really rather magical, that chemical change that occurs when meat cooks all day long and steeps in juices.
It's the sort of magic you can eat. The sort of magic that fills the house, so you come back inside and could just float into the kitchen like a scene from an old Bugs Bunny cartoon. That's the way these ribs smell when they're cooking--like you can bite the air itself and swallow the savoriness.
These ribs are so tender, the meat falls off the bone when you pull them out. Use whatever BBQ sauce you want here, and you can certainly save extra for dipping!
Barbecue Ribs in the Crock Pot
from Team Hess
3 pounds pork or beef ribs
1 cup water
1/4 cup cooking sherry
1 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
salt and pepper to taste
1/2 cup barbecue sauce
Place ribs standing upright in crock pot (see picture above); you want them braced like a picket fence along the sides of the slow cooker. Pour in sherry and water. Sprinkle with Worcestershire sauce and salt and pepper. Pour barbecue sauce over ribs.
Cook on low approximately 8 hours. Serve with additional barbecue sauce for dipping.
