Crock Pot Ribs

My husband isn't a picky eater... most of the time. The only time he is picky is when we are eating ribs. He likes his ribs cooked to the point where they are falling off the bone. He used to rave about ribs that his friend's wife made one time for dinner when he was a bachelor. Lucky for me I got the recipe. I like the recipe. It is easy. Throw everything in a crockpot and 3 - 4 hours later... Voila! The only thing that I found missing was a nice glaze over the ribs so I adjusted the recipe according to my tastes. I like to reduce the liquid in the crockpot to make a glaze, brush it on the ribs and then bake it in the oven for 30 minutes. The results are amazing. This is one of those dishes that people constantly ask me for the recipe. Here it is for everyone to enjoy!

Ingredients:

3/4 Cup Brown Sugar
1/2 Cup Soy Sauce
1/2 Cup Ketchup
1/4 Cup Honey
2 TBSP White Wine Vinegar
3-6 Cloves Minced Garlic
1 tsp Ground Ginger
1 tsp salt
dash of Crushed Red Pepper

5 LBS Baby Back Ribs

1 Medium Onion Sliced
2 TBSP Toasted Sesame Seeds
2 TBSP Chopped Green Onions

For glaze:

1 Cup Brown Sugar

1/4 Cup Soy Sauce

Directions:

Combine first 9 ingredients. Add ribs and turn and coat. Put in Crock with onion. Cook 3 hours (1 hour on high) 2 hours on low or until 160-170 degrees.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Remove ribs from crockpot and place in a single layer on an aluminum foil covered cooking tray. Spray some cooking spray so ribs don't stick to aluminum foil.

In a saucepan, add 1 cup of liquid from crockpot,1 cup brown sugar and 1/4 cup soy sauce. Cook over medium heat. Once sauce has thickened, brush over ribs. Put in oven for 30 minutes until a nice glaze forms over ribs. Garnish with Sesame Seeds and Green Onions.
