Sweet and Savory Ribs Recipe

By Addie

"My husband, Randy, and I love barbecue ribs, but with our conflicting schedules, we rarely have time to fire up the grill," says Kandy Bingham, Green River, Wyoming. "So we let the slow cooker do the work for us. By the time we get home from work, the ribs are tender, juicy and ready to devour." (Taste of Home)

Ingredients

• 1 large onion, chopped
• 2 1/2-3 pounds boneless country-style pork ribs
• 1 bottle (18 ounces) honey barbecue sauce
• 1/3 cup maple syrup
• 1/4 cup spicy brown mustard
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon pepper

Preparation

Step 1

Place onion in a 5-qt. slow cooker. Top with the ribs. Combine the barbecue sauce, syrup, mustard, salt and pepper; pour over ribs. Cover and cook on low for 8-9 hours or until meat is tender.

REVIEW:

I accidentally used boneless beef ribs and the sauce was very good, but I think I overcooked them at 8 hours...my slow cooker seems to cook things fast, though.
