    I know this is an old video but it's a classic. My go to method. Dry slow cook ,rest, baste, broil, rest, baste and eat! My family loves these ribs. We've not done grilled ribs since using this method. So tender and full of flavor.

    I made these ribs without the membrane and liquid smoke in the sauce and cut the recipe in half for 2 people. When taking them out of the slow cooker after 5 hours, they were falling off the bone. After baking them for 10 minutes because our broiler burns everything within 2 minutes, and adding more sauce, my bff declared them restaurant quality. To me, they were melt in your mouth heaven. Will definitely make these again. Thanks, ATK.

The beans were equal to the ribs. An excellent contribution to the family's Holiday. Thanks Cook's Country and ATK.

    Recently did a pressure cooker (one of those I Pots) version very similar to this crock pot recipe. Also turned out great, and was about 90 minutes from start to finish. 40 minutes was heat up/cook/release time. Rest prep work and final slather of sauce for the broiler. For winter time when the smoker is packed away, these kinds of recipes are super great alternatives.

    Thank you ladies I have made ribs in a slow cooker before and like you said it's more like a stew by the time you're done. I'm going to try this method this weekend and make them prove my father who is coming to my house to help me install a screen door. This is how I'm going to show him my appreciation. and it looks like it would be great serve with beer 😇

    Tried the recipe. Excellent and close enough to real outdoor bbq ribs on a rainy or snowy day. I did not take the membrane off as suggested and it helped keep the ribs together.
    For all those that “demanded” the membrane removal, you probably didn’t leave your ribs in the slow cooker long enough or you may have a failing cooker.
    Thank you ladies for a great recipe!

    • @JakobNoone
      @JakobNoone Рік тому

      If you're religiously dedicated to removing it, it comes off after cooking super easily. Why waste time? I do slit it and throw some rub on it before cooking. Seems to offset any flavor-blocking the membrane might cause.

    Thank you ladies. You're the greatest! I used half garlic powder and half onion powder. Then threw a few peeled garlic cloves in the crock. Finished them off on our little grill for the proper char - and oven clean up concerns. Too chicken to make our own sauce - no molasses or apple juice in the pantry! Plus we have some excellent local sources of some pretty decent store bought sauce. Just my little tweeks!

For spices I usually use a couple of tablespoons of whatever rub I'm using on the ribs. It'll be awesome.

      I usually make my ribs in the oven and get them pretty fall off the bone tender. What's worked for me is to put them meat side down between 2 pieces of foil, top and bottom, so 4 total, and then roll and crimp the edges. After about 2 hours for 4 lbs take them out and basically do the rest of this video with sauce and the broiler. I sauce and broil both sides for a couple minutes.

    Wonderful video...I don't have a stove at the moment. Is the second step crucial after the Crock-Pot?

    Can these be made ahead of time, freeze them with the sauce and do the last step of broiling after thawing and then serve? Super recipe! Thanks!

    Oh this looks absolutely delicious!!! I wonder if this recipe & method would work for beef ribs?

    These ribs are delicious and meaty but the best part is this recipe is simple!!! These will be my summer go to rib recipe. Fabulous job. Thank you ladies. I was really lazy and used bottled bbq sauce and they turned out perfectly. I, like you, don';t like the liquidy (a word?) ribs.

    I do ribs the same way, but in a pressure cooker. The rub really does make a difference.

    Okay don’t hate on the slow cooker juices. This might sound crazy but one of my favourite things was the rib sauce / juices over plain rice. So good
