My family really liked these ribs, great way to have ribs in the winter. Like others though I made changes! I didn't use the chili sauce, cut the ketchup, added BBQ sauce, used apple cider vinegar instead of regular vinegar. Then I had too many ribs for the slow cooker for this, so I put them in a large roaster in the oven at 250 degrees F, let them cook approx 8 hours. They were wonderful, fell off the bone!

This was a pretty fair start at making the Crispy Orange Beef. I used the cornstarch for the beef, I tried a couple of strips with flour as others stated, but you don't end up with the same crispness. Let the beef sit in the cornstarch for 5-10 before you place it in the skillet. Like other I couldn't find 'rice wine vinegar' there is rice vinegar, I used about half the about called for, replaced the other half with beef broth. Next time will cut the rice vinegar down further. I also double the sauce since we like these types of items a little more saucy. I used Minute Rice instead of the long cooking rice, for speed, works fine. I also used frozen broccoli spears, steamed them in the mircrowave until hot & still somewhat firm. Will try this recipe again with some moderate changes.

This might be something others like, but my family just didn't like it. The flavor just wasn't really there, just not through the meat well enough. And with the bacon on top I thought it added too much greasy flavor. Sorry but not something I'll make again. But the meat once shredded, put into a crock pot with BBQ sauce & simmered made some great BBQ pork for sandwiches.
