We got hungry from the sell of the ribs cooking! Our 15 yr old and 10 yr old loved this! We made sandwiches with the leftovers and it was still delicious. I did use an altered recipe that added more flavor. Great slow cooker choice!

These are very good. A different taste than you typically get with ribs (having grown up on BBQ)-- much more subtle. Some might find the flavor a little bland and need a little more seasoning, but with good ribs, it lets the flavor of the meat through!

This recipe is definitely a keeper! The meat became so tender that it could be easily pulled apart. I threw in some carrots towards the end so I used more liquids than the recipe suggested, and the whole thing was delicious.

I did not have ribs so I used 4 pork chops, and followed a reviewers advise to use 1/3 cup for the liquids. Then I doubled the recipe and added carrots and let it all simmer. The only change that I would make is to double everything except for the onions and the cinnamon. Used a little corn starch to thicken the juices and served it all over rice. Amazing! We all loved it and will make again!

Mild flavoring but nice..it didn't over-power the pork flavor. Something different than the usual pork in barbecue sauce. It didn't create a sauce that was thick that clings to the meat like BBQ sauce, which I was actually hoping for. But..it was o.k.

As per the suggestion of other reviewers, I increased both the maple syrup and the soy sauce to 1/3 cup each. Other than that, I followed the recipe. Nobody disliked it, but nobody was wowed by it either.

Very good! I used 1/3 cup of the maple syrup and soy sauce when I did mine. Even my picky husband liked them and gave the thumbs up for making them again. I thought the flavor was good but it is somewhat mild so if you're looking for bold or spicy go elsewhere.

These were very good and a nice change from barbecued ribs. I followed the recipe as written and they came out perfect!

These were sooo good! I think that 9 hours is too long though. I wouldn't go any longer than 7. Mine were a little burnt. The meat was so tender and loved the sweetness... we served it with rice.

I made this the time last night for my daughter and her husband. I followed the recipe, doubling the maple syrup & soy sauce (made 4 lbs of pork ribs). The meat fell off the bones, but was dry and practically tasteless. Would use BBQ sauce the next time !!

They were delicious but took forever to cook all the way through. I only had 3 ribs in the slow cooker, but after 7 hours it still wasn't completely done. It looked done on the outside--nice and brown, meat falling off the bone--but the meat was still bloody near the bone. So I took it all out--meat and sauce--and cooked it on the stove. I let it boil and then covered it and let it simmer for about 15 minutes.

I made this earlier in the week and everyone ate it all. My son rated it "double thumbs up". I am making again today. I did double the sauce ingredients because i had more ribs. Flavors aren't overwhelming and i might try adding some BBQ sauce when on the plate. Very easy to do as i mix the sauce right in the crockpot and you don't have to brown/sear the meat.

The flavor of this recipe was great, it was super easy, everyone like it, & I'd make it again. I didn't have a slow cooker, but it didn't matter. Cooking time was about 3.5hrs maybe less. I doubled the sauce, & added about 1/4c of bbq sauce & 1/2c water. So tender & the whole house smelled so good during cooking. Really tasty!
