Sweet and Tangy Slow Cooker Bar-B-Q Pork

"Great new way to prepare Pork Ribs. After reading other reviews, I browned the ribs in the oven at 400 degrees for 10 minutes on each side to help reduce the fat content. This worked great as I had n..." See moreo fat anywhere left in the sauce at the end. I then replaced the ketchup with bbq sauce (don't like ketchup), reduced the water to 2 tablespoons. I didn't have any celery seed so elimated that along with the sliced onions and red bell pepper. I also rotated the ribs halfway through the cooking to make sure all were evening covered. My husband absolutely loved them (we had no leftovers!!) Thanks MITCH103 for a new and easy way to prepare bar-b-que pork ribs!!"

"Wow!! This is great. I made it last Sunday and my husband requested it again this weekend. He is telling everyone about it. What is great about the sauce is that it is slightly sweet and tangy and..." See more has the perfect spice to it as well. I use Frank's hot sauce which is tangy as well and quadruple the amount. I also substituted teriaki sauce instead of worcesthire (as my husband hates it). I didn't have celery seed and eliminated it. I do think it's better the same day. I pre-boiled my ribs to get rid of the fat and boy do you! It also cuts down on the cook time. I leave it on high for about 15-20 min and then turn to low for the remainder of 6 hours. Yummy! I did not feel that the onion and pepper overpowered the dish. One warning!! Make a double batch. It's so good that you will be disappointed if you don't. Also - You can use half the water. Thanks for a great recipe."

"After reading the other reviews, I added a simple first step ... I boiled the ribs for 30 minutes ... that fat made its way to the top of the water and not into my slow cooker ... lots of ingredients ..." See morehere, but absolutely great flavor ... too easy not to do again ..."
