The Aroma of Crockpot Cooking

The Aroma of Crockpot Cooking

I am making one of my favorite things today, ribs, and I opted to put them in the crockpot.  I turned the pot on at 10 this morning and the aroma of those ribs is really starting to permeate every nook and cranny of this house!  My husband had better not be late from work tonight because I’m going to start eating as soon as they’re ready.  There is no way I can sit here smelling this wonderful smell all day and have to postpone eating them!

 Here’s my recipe:

31/2 pounds pork loin back ribs

1/2 c packed brown sugar

1/2 tsp. black pepper

3 T liquid smoke

2 cloves garlic, finely chopped

1 tsp. salt

1 medium onion, sliced

1/2 c. cola

1 1/2 cups barbeque sauce

  1. Spray inside of large crockpot with cooking spray.
  2. Remove inner skin from ribs.  Mix brown sugar, pepper, salt, garlic and liquid smoke.  Cut ribs into about 4-5 inch pieces and rub mixture into ribs.  Layer the ribs and onions in the slow cooker.  Pour the cola over the ribs.
  3. Cover and cook on low for 8-9 hours or until ribs are tender. (mine usually fall off the bone).  Remove the ribs from the cooker. Drain liquid.
  4. Pour bbq sauce into shallow bowl.  Dip ribs into sauce.  Place the ribs back into the slow cooker, pouring remaining sauce over the ribs.  Cover and cook on low 1 hour.

I’m making potato salad to go with mine and probably some corn.  Enjoy!

    Laura - Everytime I make these ribs they fall of the bone, they’re so tender.

    Karen - I might save some, but then again, he’d be better off to get home in time for dinner, not take any chances! :-D

    […] I found a recipe Lynne uses for making crockpot ribs. She likes margaritas and daquiris. […]

    Meagan - These are delicious in the crockpot. I don’t think they need to cook as long as it says because they fall off the bone.
