The best ribs i have ever had in my life. I followed the recipe to a t, i found the end result was very spicey (my hot sauce was franks extra hot). OMG they where juicy and the meat just fell off the bone though 100% amazing loved it. I will try the other variations as well though to cut back on the spice but still fantastic as is as well

Even though I went a different route as far as ingredients, I have to rate this a 5 for the technique. I have made ribs in the slow cooker before, but the meat just didn't have the right consistency. That first step is the key. Also, not mentioned but equally important, be sure to remove the skin from the backside of the ribs. It's tough and won't break down, even when cooked low and slow. These ribs were fall-off-the-bone tender but still had a little bite to them. They were some of the very best ribs my wife and I have ever eaten. As for the ingredients, I used a pork rub on the ribs before I put them in the oven. A bottle of mustard-based BBQ sauce with one cup of ketchup were mixed with the remaining ingredients as listed. I also added some dried minced onion to the sauce. I think I'm going to add a little liquid smoke to them, next time, to make them taste a little more "authentic".

This recipe was really good. The meat was really nice and tender. But it takes a long time to make

I used my own sauce and rib seasonings, but did follow the cooking directions for the ribs with the high oven and then the slow cooker. They came out perfect! No finishing in the broiler or grill. The sauce was perfectly clung to tender, fall off the bone, ribs. Thanks for a great recipe!

Not really a fan of barbeque ribs, but this is very good.

If you want fall off the bone ribs this is a great recipe. The secret is to cook the ribs as indicated in the oven first to get some fat off, then you can add your own BBQ sauce or follow the recipe. I usually make my own with BBQ sauce,ketchup,worchesterchire, hot sauce, brown sugar & red wine vinegar to my liking. The kids love these ribs everytime I make them and its so easy with the crock pot. Set it in the morning and come home to a dinner that is easy to put together!

This was decent in taste and certainly simple to prepare. I would recommend this for anyone who doesn't have the time to cook ribs on a grill or who just wants a filling meal with little fuss.

As others mentioned, loved the technique but love my Bullseye BBQ sauce. Used 3.46 pounds (1 big rack) which only made barely enough for 4 people, so I feel like the serving size was off unless 2 ribs a person is normal. I suggest spending the time to carve most of the fat up front. It will make the eating more enjoyable. The meat comes out sooooo moist and tender. Will try other's suggestions of baking with a fresh layer of BBQ sauce to carmelize the sauce on.

Tender and juicy ribs! So easy to prepare and to spice up depending on your taste.

Wonderful recipe. I made a little change and used 1 1/2 C of chili sauce and 4 dashes of hot sauce. I also use country ribs because they are meatier and juicier than baby backs. I often get asked to make this recipe when we have get togethers with friends and/or family.
