Slow cooked pork spare ribs, or country style ribs, also great with boneless, skinless chicken breasts.
The meat turned out very tender and moist. I made some changes: #1. Didn't boil the ribs first. #2.Cooked for 9 hours #3. Didn't use the sauce that was created because it was too onion-y. Next time I'll only use 1/2 an onion. After the ribs were done I transferred them to a cookie sheet and brushed them with BBQ sauce. I then baked them in a 400 degree oven for between 5 and 10 minutes while I set the table. We were able to pull the bones out (and they were clean), and then ate the meat with a fork. The meat was so tender we didn't need to use dental floss afterwards. It made a really good meal with coleslaw and corn bread.
Read MoreThis version is very bland & way too much onion. Also, you don't need to boil the ribs first. All I do is cut the ribs in strips & place them into crock pot. I add my favorite barbeque sauce to the crock pot & cook for 4-6 hours on high or 6-8 hours on low. They are the best & very tender. Much more simpler to make.

Five stars, although I did change it somewhat. I used 1.5 times the brown sugar and used 1 cup of ketchup in place of the tomato soup, as I didn't have any on hand. I then also ended up doubling the whole thing for 4 lbs of ribs. We put it in the oven uncovered at 375 for 30 minutes before serving. It was AMAZING! I will use this again and again.
Very Good, Very Easy. I WILL make this recipe again. After boiling the PORK ribs I put them in the crock pot, but my crock didn't work so hot today for some reason. (Time to get a new one), So instead I had to put the ribs in a "Reynolds Oven Bag" (plastic) and they turned out perfectly yummy! I followed the cooking times that come with the bag which was 325 for 1 1/2 hours, meat is done when fork tender. Thanks for posting your recipe
We loved the ribs--except I would definitely take other people's advice by not using a whole onion--and maybe about half as much garlic. It was way too oniony! I used BBQ sauce instead of soy, and steak marinade instead of worcester because I didn't have any on hand. I cooked for 8 hours and took the advice of someone else by brushing on more BBQ sauce and cooking them for an extra 10 mins in a 400 degree oven. Perfection! Thanks for the recipe!
I didn't think I would like this recipe because of the tomato soup. I doubled the sauce ingredients and cooked it for 5 hours. I was in for a surprise. My husband and I loved this recipe. It's not too sweet - just right. And the meat just fell off the bone. I will definitely make this again and again. Thanks Clayton
Loved this recipe and I will use it every time ribs go on sale at the grocery store! I always felt overwhelmed by ribs because I don't have a grill and they can go wrong so easily. I was delighted to come home from work to a pot of PERFECTLY cooked ribs!
the only good thing about the recipie was the beef it turned out so moist and tender it was very good me and my husband wherent crazy about the sauce but the next day it tasted a little better i wouldnt make it ever again
These are alright. I made them in my quest for a good rib recipe that can be made in the crock pot. Maybe that is my mistake because I feel that they were too tender. They were falling off the bone and then I had a crock pot full of bones and watery greasy sauce. Did not "look" appetizing in the pot.
I changed a few things after reading reviews. I used Sloppy Joe mix instead of tom. soup. also no cornstarch. I cooked with rice pilaf and green beans. Everyone loved it will definitly make again
Great flavor. My husband doesn't like soy sauce, so I substituted 1 tbsp mustard & 1 tbsp honey for the soy sauce. Turned out delicious!! Will definitely be making this one again.
I'll give this five stars but only because it's a easy recipe. I love garlic, but this is a bit much. Also, when you use canned tomato soup, you get exactly that taste ... canned soup!! Instead, just use your favorite BBQ sauce and forget all the other ingredients. It's a no-brainer. As for boiling the ribs before adding them to the slow cooker, it does help render some of the fat so you don't have greasy ribs.
This version is very bland & way too much onion. Also, you don't need to boil the ribs first. All I do is cut the ribs in strips & place them into crock pot. I add my favorite barbeque sauce to the crock pot & cook for 4-6 hours on high or 6-8 hours on low. They are the best & very tender. Much more simpler to make.
OMG! This was fall-off-the-bone delicious! This dish made me look like a fabulous cook. I made a few adjustments thanks to other reviewers. I did not boil the ribs. I used a cup of ketchup instead of the tomato sauce, beef ribs instead of pork ribs. I used a very small onion, and a bit more than a tablespoon of brown sugar. I put everything at once in a slow cooker adding about a 1/4 cup of water to make sure there was enough liquid in the slow cooker. Cooked it on low for 8 hours. Then put beef in a foil-lined baking dish with some of the sauce on it in a preheated oven at 400F for 10 minutes. It came out great! Thanks everyone!
I cooked them in the crock pot for about 8 hours. I just poured enough Sweet Baby Ray's over to cover. I didn't mess with the other ingredients. Once they had been in the crock pot long enough to be tender, I carefully placed them on a pan, brushed them with my Tastefully Simple Smokey Bacon Grill Sauce, and broiled for a few minutes. They were Fantastic! I will most definitely use this recipe from now on.
This recipe is AWSOME! I threw it together in minutes in the morning before work and let it cook on low all day (9 hours.) I did a few things differently, I didn't boil the ribs first and I added a little ketsup and bbq sauce to the tomato soup (I had more than 2lbs of ribs) I took the ribs out and put them on a foil lined cookie sheet and baked at 350 for 25 minutes just to crispen them a little. The meat fell right off the bone. DELICIOUS!!!!!!
I skipped the pre-boil and placed them directly into the crockpot. Set it on high for 1 hour followed by low for 3 and ended up with great ribs.
Trim your spare ribs, don't boil as it leeches the favor. Put in 400 degree oven for 20 minutes while preparing sauce. I used marmalade instead of brown sugar,pomegranite vinegar in equal amounts with soy and worchester, added a litte ginger less onion, reduced the sauce (which was doubled) and coated the ribs well before covering--smelled terrific all day long and the precooked ribs came out nicely browned and moist!
I have yet to try this recipe but I just know it will be awesome. The one thing I won't do tho' is boil the ribs, as they sit in their own fat. I always pre-cook them, no matter how I cook them but I steam them as there will be no water on them and steaming rids them of extra fat.
This recipe turned out tender and very flavorful! I made these for Father's Day and my husband was very happy with them! I did not boil them, I put them straight in the crock pot and cooked them for 6 hours on low (with about 45 on high midway through because I was concerned I put them in too late). I did watch a video of how to trim spare ribs first and I believe the key is in the trimming and the removal of the outer membrane. I used half the amount of onion, as I usually do in most recipes! I will make this again!
I did not boil these first and 9 hours was wayyy too long to cook them. They fell off the bone at 6 hours. So tender and juicy - I will definitely make again. Make sure you trim the fat before cooking.
wow. how easy and delicious! I tried this one day after I sprained my ankle and needed a dinner that wouldn't require much standing in the kitchen. I did make a few adjustments. I doubled the recipe of sauce, but not the onion. I also added some tabasco, as my husband & I both love a little heat. I will def. be making this again!
I made these over the weekend and OH MY they were so tasty!! MY house smelled wonderful I gave the recipe to my neice to make this weekend!!!
I took the advise of some other reviews and took them out of the crock after 6 hours, put BBQ sauce on them and baked them in the oven for 10 min. They were very good.
This recipe was my very first attempt at making BBQ ribs and it was met with resounding success. I used a commercial BBQ sauce for convenience as some others did but now know I prefer my own homemade sauce. Brilliant idea to parboil these first. The aroma while cooking was virtually irresistible. The meat was fall off the bone tender, rich and deep BBQ flavor, not just a glaze. In a family of known picky eaters, there was not left. Thank you, Claton, for sharing this excellent recipe so that we may all enjoy the benefit of your success.
I am not the best cook (according to my husband) so if I can pull something off that the family enjoys, then it's a winner! I followed the changes I recently read, and added the ketchup, cooked it later at 400 degrees for 10 minutes, and thickened up the sauce with cornstarch. It turned out pretty darn good! I'm a teacher, so coming home to this already done was not bad!!! Also, someone wrote about greasy sauce in the pan...mine was too until I thickened it on the stove...and it was so good, that I just stood there eating it with a spoon!!!! Husband approved!!!
Great recipe - I did make some changes - I doubled all the ingredients except the onion and used stewed tomatoes in place of the tomato soup. After removing the ribs I scooped out the remainder of the cooked ingredients and served over the ribs. Even our picky son cleaned his plate.
Firstly, we took the advice of other members and cut back on the amount of onions the original recipe called for. We have to say this recipe was amazing. The meat literally feel off the bone. Everyone loved it, kids included. The only negative was I made the mistake of using country style pork ribs. There was a lot of fat. I would definitely recommend using a better cut of ribs like baby back or St. Louis. Otherwise, this is a phenomenal recipe. Thanks so much.
Wow! Fabulous recipe. Used beef short ribs and didn't boil them, cooked for 10(!) hours. I personally hate tomato soup but as another reviewer stated the same problem and loved the recipe, I gave it a try. So glad I did! (Yes, the meat falls off the bone. Yes, there was a lot of oil on the top -- sucked it off with a turkey baster.) The taste was out of this world. My boys rated it a 10 out of 5!! Terrific recipe and one that will become a mainstay in my kitchen.
These were very good! I also only used half an onion but everything else to a tee. Took some of the sauce and thickened it on the stove and pour them on the ribs and put in the oven for about 10 min. They turned out great! Served over rice and used the non thinkened sauce also straight out of the crock pot to pour on the rice. Will make again
Hard to know how to rate this because I used a completely different sauce...but I used the boil/slow cooker method to cook the ribs and they were a-MAZ-ing...I could hardly get them out of the crock pot they were so tender. Would definitely make them this way again!
cut the bone out of the pork plus cut off most the fat. used 1c ketchup instead of tomato soup, 1/2 onion and the rest of the ingredients listed, plus added 1 1/2 bottle of sweet baby rays BarBQ sauce and then pulled the pork, best pulled pork sandwiches i ever had.
This recipe is great! It's packed with flavor and you can't help asking for seconds. Unfortunately, i only gave this 4stars because the it doesn't really taste exactly like barbecue because you can still taste the tomato sauce. But overall it's a wonderful recipe. Used double the amount of brown sugar and added a little honey mustard; we like our barbecue sweet. I cooked for 8 hours on low in my slow-cooker and the meat was literally falling off the bone. Don't know if that's a good thing, maybe for most people but it's a little too tender for my taste. Next time i'll cook it for only 6 hours. Will definitely make again and again and again.
I have made this recipe three times now and every single time it has been outstanding. My family has requested I make it every night. I did not alter the recipe and it turned out great. I highly recommend this recipe. You'll be glad you made it. Enjoy!
This was YUMMY!!! I used BBQ sauce in place of the tomato soup. One word of caution...boiling the ribs is really messy. Use a larger pot than you think you'll need because there will be tons of foamy fat that rises to the top. Except for the unwieldy process of boiling the ribs, once the crockpot got involved it was a breeze. Made the house smell incredible.
It was excellent. The whole family loved it. I'll definitely make it again. I followed it exactly, and felt I could do with more onions and garlic. I used the red onions and it was very sweet. One thing I've got to share - never omit Step 1. I read how some reviewers skip step 1 but this is what I've been told. Slow cooker takes a long time to heat up and cook the meat. Therefore, your raw meat would be sitting at room temperature for too long. In hot climate countries, you could easily get food poisoning. Therefore the advice to boil and cook the meat first is a good suggestion.
very good! Did follow some of the reviews and broiled it in the oven for a few mins just to crisp the outside.. very good!
The meat was fall-off-the-bone perfect, but the mixture left a LOT to be desired for my taste. We added some bbq sauce and it worked out just fine. I cooked in crock pot of HIGH for 4-5 hours. I noticed that it smelled like chili when it was cooking, but the taste didn't translate so well. I'll look at other people's suggestions when I do this again in the future, and certainly try to make the mixture more hearty and sweet.
No knife required! This meat comes clean off the bone. I only wish that the sauce had some kick to it. I will definitely make this again, but I'll use some bold spices or hot peppers to liven it up a little.
This was my first time making ribs, I used all of the seasoning in the recipe but I used kc masterpiece bbq sauce (kansas city flavor). 2lbs of spare ribs. Cooked for 6hrs on high. The meat was so tender and absolutely delicious!
Fantastic ribs! It was my first time attempting ribs and it couldn't have been easier. They were falling off the bone and my husband and I couldn't get enough. I also used half an onion and doubled the sauce (I used ketchup as I only had 1 can of tomato soup). I cooked on low for 8 hours and then used some of the extra sauce on them and put them in the oven on 400 for 10 minutes. Will make them again in a heartbeat. I added a picture as well.
Sauce was very bland, I would suggest adding more brown sugar, and we also added some HP sauce afterward just to make it less dull. Also, I followed other reviewers' advice and didn't boil the ribs first, and stick them in the oven afterwards, and they came out great. I would also suggest using a far shorter cooking time.
This is the best spare rib recipe I've tried. I used country style spare ribs and followed the recipe exactly. I was also skeptical about using tomato soup but it turned out wondeful! I served it with mashed potatoes to soak up the juices and even the kids asked for seconds. I will be using this recipe from now on!
Love this, nice and easy. I made minor changes, doubled the sauce, used half the onion. After they were cooked, brushed them in bought barbeque sauce and cooked 10-15 mins at 400 to "dry" them up. I also added a little bought sauce to the cooked sauce before serving, to thicken it up. This a wonderful recipe, will definately make again.
I did not care for this sauce at all-I had my doubts based on several reviews that there wasn't enough flavor, but figured I'd try it since I had some ribs on hand and it seemed simple. I put them in the crockpot and followed the ingredients exactly and they came out tasting bland. After pouring Sweet Baby Ray's over the top and baking for another 10 minutes, they were somewhat more palatable but not worth wasting good ribs. Sorry, just didn't care for this at all.
Did as others suggested and used 1 c ketchup, 1 small onion, diced, 1 clove of garlic, 1 1/2 tbsps brown sugar, 1 tbsp worcestershire sauce and 2 tbsp soy sauce. Cooked as directed for 7 hours. Removed ribs and placed in baking dish in oven for 20 min (375 degreesF). Did not preboil ribs either. At about noon mouthes were watering waiting for dinner tonight. Excellent recipe with awesome suggestions.
My husband and son states it's a keeper. The meat was very tender. I only used 1/2 an onion and baked them for a few minuets after they were done to crisp the outside as seen in another review. My husband and son states is a keeper.
This was my first attempt at cooking dinner in a slow cooker (and my first attempt at homemade ribs). The meat was so tender it fell right off the bone and my husband loved it. I added a little chili powder to the sauce for a bit of a bite. Delicious.
I doubled this recipe and took the advice of other reviewers to cut back on the amount of onion used. However, I found it to be EXTREMELY garlicky when all was said and done. Don't know if I just had large cloves or if the recipe is meant to be that garlicky, but even for someone who loves garlic, it was almost too much to tolerate.
Our family loved this sauce. The meat fell off the bones. Like others mentioned, I did not boil the ribs first because I knew they would be in the slow cooker for longer than the cooking time suggested. This was an easy throw together & eat when you get home kind of meal!
did not boil the ribs. I prefer to have that flavor in the sauce but other than that htis recipe was fantastic. My kids and wife loved them.
I did actually make this recipe as written the first time, and I would give it 4 stars as written but 5 (to our taste) when onion is reduced by half. I have used this MANY times for boneless country style ribs and even a couple of times for a whole pork butt which I shredded for pulled pork sandwiches. For the people who are complaining it turns out greasy- are you boiling the ribs first? This step removes much of the fat. And for the people who are complaining that their beef ribs did not taste good- this is a recipe for pork!
My husband raved about this recipe! He's a meat and potatoes guy- and this was a first for me, I'd never made spare ribs before. I've been married for 12 yrs, and there aren't many firsts left! It was easy, just prepare and leave them until they're tender. I seared the ribs with a rub instead of boiling them, and added 2 cups of chicken broth to the crockpot. After they were done I boiled down the liquid to a sauce, even with the cornstarch I added our favorite BBQ to thicken it more. Potato salad and deviled eggs made a very fun fresh meal on a mild day with spring on it's way!
I doubled the recipe. I also used 2 cans of Trader Joe's Tomato Sauce instead of the condensed tomato soup. I also boiled the meat for about 25 minutes to get out as much fat as I could. It was a rousing success! I served it over Asian noodles and 4 people finished it off - no leftovers! The meat was tender and moist. Excellent recipe and I will certainly cook this again!
We like this recipe, it is easy and good...I use more brown sugar and ketchup instead of tomato soup. I also added a little honey and some garlic. It is awesome!
I made the recipe as directed except used tomato bisque instead of regular tomato soup. I was generous with the brown sugar too. The meat is tasty - it did cook thoroughly in 6 hours, I think 8 hours is a bit much for only 2lbs of meat.
This recipe turned out great! I did not have tomato soup, so I used two cans of tomato paste as a substitute. I was not particularly tied to quantities in the recipe and certainly used more garlic and onion than the recipe called for. I didn't need to thicken the sauce even after about 10 hours in the crock pot. I'm saving the leftover sauce (abundant) because it is too savory to toss, although the ribs are long gone! Make the recipe your own with preferences that match your family's tastes...the foundation of the recipe is very good.
I loved this recipe and will use it again. I would use the sauce with a pork tenderloin instead. Plus, it would have been nice for it to have a little "kick." Next time I'll add a dash of tabasco. Otherwise, very easy adn very delicious.
Amazing! I cooked this on high for three hours due to lack of preparation, and used a different kind of tomatoe soup, due to preference. Thank you so much ts is a keeper!
This is awesome - you gotta try it!! So easy to make and so worth it! I sauteed the onions in butter and browned my spare ribs before I placed them in the slow cooker. I also changed this recipe to make 10 servings (i have boys) and had so much sauce left over. I put the excess sauce in the freezer so I can use it the next time I make these ribs. I'll cut the sauce recipe in 1/2 when I make it again. Other than that I would'nt change a thing!! thanks for this awesome, easy & delicious recipe!
I dont know if I did something wrong or not, but I did not care for the flavor or the lack there of at all. But thanks for sharing.it was good to experiment
These are the best ribs I have ever had! I did modify the recipe a little bit though. First of all, I changed the amount of servings to feed 6 people. Second, instead of using 2 cans of tomato soup, I used 3/4 can tomato soup, and 1/2 can of ketchup. Third, I only used one onion and about a teaspoon more brown sugar. Finally, I used country style ribs instead of spare ribs. I made these for a dinner party I had, and everyone raved over them. Everyone who came, left with the recipe. They are awesome. Enjoy!
Very bummed, I followed the recipe to a T and was disappointed how flavorless the meat and sauce turned out
We love these....we use pork country style ribs and they just fall apart. I use more brown sugar about half a cup and more garlic. But overall the recipe is great we make it frequently. Thanks for sharing it!
This recipe caught my eye because you don't use BBQ sauce. My husband hates BBQ sauce, so I made this last night and it turned out well. Six hours is plenty of time to let it cook. I made the recipe exactly as it said. Next time though, I would add more tomato soup. After it was served it could have used more sauce. It had just the right amount of flavor for my family. We aren't big on robust or spicy flavor. I would definatley make it again.
I took the suggestions of all the other reviewers (substituted ketchup for tomato soup, 1/2 an onion, and finished the ribs in the oven) and we loved it. We will definitely make this again.
These were tasteless. I followed the recipes exactly. I was skeptical when I saw the ingredients. I used country ribs and cooked for 7.5 hours. The meat was very tender and falling of the bone but very bland. I am now wondering how this recipe got so many good reviews. I ended up putting some bottles BBQ sauce on the ribs for flavor.
Tried this great recipe last night for dinner. I followed the recipe exactly. Very tasty. As an accompaniment to this dish, I added some cooked egg noodles and a tin of Asian vegetables, i.e., baby corn, bamboo shoots and water chestnuts, during the last 15 minutes of cooking. I will definitely make this again. Thanks.
This recipe was awesome. I boiled four pounds of ribs for 25 minutes. Then cooked for 6 hours in slow cooker. I added more onions , worcestershire sauce and soy sauce the flavor was great
Best slow cooker BBQ rib recipe I've tried so far. I deleted the rest. :) I used 2 Tbs of brown sugar because I like it sweet - other than that, this recipe is prefect.
Good recipe!! I used a 2 qt. crock pot and changed the ingredients to 2 servings. The amount was just perfect. No over eating and no leftovers. Be sure to cook it on low for half the time stated in the directions.
Great recipe, I did not precook teh ribs. I served over mashed potatoes. They were a huge hit. Only thing was they were a little fatty. I'm new to cooking so maybe it was the type of ribs I bought. Everyone loved the flavor and was very satisfied.
OK but nothing great. Used can of Manwich and a tsp of Liquid Smoke to replace everything else. Put in 400 oven for 10 minutes with BBQ sauce after the slow cooker. Very tender, falling apart, but flavor was not nearly as good as they smelled .
these are wonderful with a few changes: i used the large can tomato soup. i added a packet of sloppy joe season mix, a pkg lipton onion soup mix, used more garlic and used chicken or beef broth in place of 1/4 c water. furthermore, i followed others suggestions to omit boiling ribs at first. the key is to bake them at the end. brush with plenty of bbq sauce and bake at 400 for 10 mins. this will make these ribs taste like restaurant quality! also, DO NOT make the mistake and buy country style ribs. you must use either spare ribs (cheaper) or baby backs. my family loves this recipe buy we like things sort of salty so it needs doctoring.
Loved the flavor of the sauce however I didn't think there was ENOUGH sauce. I cooked them on low for the amount of time specified but there was very little sauce left and the edges of my ribs were a tad burnt. I suggest adding a little more water to the recipe. Otherwise great! Thanks :)
this was good. A little too tomatoey...probably because of the tomato soup. Next time I will use V8 instead for the extra flavor. I used ribs cut in half lengthwise and then cut between each bone. Only needed to be in the crockpot for 5 hours and still fell off the bone.
I made this with boneless country style ribs. After 3 hours they were falling apart, reminded me of pulled pork. I add a dash of liquid smoke for a nice smokey flavor.
Very good recipe! Like other reviews, I doctored sauce a bit. Added 1/2 of a bottle of BBQ sauce and squirted in some catsup. Grated 1/2 an onion and used minced garlic. Had no brown sugar, which I thought was ok because of BBQ sauce. My house smells wonderful while it's cooking!
Never made ribs before, honestly I'm not a big rib guy. But I got the itch to try to make some after seeing the recipe on here. I added about 1/4 cup of honey to the sauce and otherwise cooked as directed. I was going to save some for my wife to try when she got home, but... you don't get much ribs with a 3lb rack when they are this good, looks like I'll be making this again and again and again.
These ribs were 'fall of the bone'. I added just about 1/2 cup of Honey BBQ sauce, but otherwise I followed the recipe exact. Delicious. These will be in my family forever.
This recipe is amazing!!! The ribs just melt in your mouth and have a wonderful after taste as well. After the ribs were done we kept on dipping the bones into the remaining sauce and sucking it off them. I followed the recipe exactly as it appears here and the ribs were done in 3 hours, bu then again I could only buy tiny, little ribs at the time.
This is a very good recipe. I put my spare ribs in the oven for a little bit til they brown a little and some of the fat is taken out then put them in the crock pot. Very good recipe. Thank you.
I didn't care for the taste of the sauce. The taste of tomato soup was very prevalent. I followed the recipe exactly as written. I might make this again, but add Sweet Baby Ray's BB sauce next time. Thanks for sharing
I had to fight my 10 year old son away from the crock pot so I could get these on the plate. HUGE hit at my house. Ribs fell off the bone. Will definitely do this again.
I used a 4 pound slab of spare ribs, cut it into 2 rib pieces, and cooked them in a 6 quart slow cooker. Otherwise, I followed the recipe and cooked them for 6 1/2 hours. The meat was so tender and juicy that it fell off the bones and the flavor was fantastic. The recipe is so easy that I don't think that I will ever do ribs any other way.
OMG....I work nite shift at our local hospital so anything i can slow cook and ready when i wake up is the recipe for me WOW I surprised myself i did not have all the ingredients so i took a small can of tomatoe sauce, 1 onion, 2 stalks of celery some worcestire sauce, soy sauce and a couple of dads of pepper sauce sprinkled the ribs with garlic and pepper and slow cooked on low ...it was the best my son is still asking for more and more and more thank you
This was a great recipe and I thought the flavor was wonderful! My problem was that I had to turn on the slow cooker early in the morning (7:00) and by the time I got home (4:00), some of the sauce was burning in the crock pot! If I could have started it later, it would have been fine. Perhaps I will double the sauce recipe the next time so it won't all boil away by the time I get home. The meat was PERFECT and just falling off the bone! I will definitely make this again.
Family, LOVED this. I modified it by halving the amount of onion, I added honey bbq sauce, added some additonal honey and brown sugar and it was fall off the bone delicious!!!
The ribs were nice and tender, but the sauce needed some more flavor. Perhaps I should have read the past reviews for some ideas.
Just delicious and super easy. I made this the other night when I bought the ribs on sale. I wasn't sure what to do with thme and I stumbled on this recipe. I didn't have fresh onion or garlic on hand so I substituted dried minced onion and garlic powder. Still came out great. I could tell my hubby loved it because he stopped talking and only grunted a few times while he skarfed the ribs down. That means it was delicious.
Fabulous! But I tweeked it a little. Doubled the recipe...except used 1 can tomato soup and 1 cup ketchup. Not a whole onion. Used 4 tbsp. of brown sugar and a splash of vinegar. Loved it.
I used 1 T of molasses instead of the brown sugar, and a bit more garlic - but these would probably be quite tasty as is. The condensed soup sauce worked out much better than I expected. In my crockpot on low, 8 hours was really pushing it - I'll go for 7 at the max next time.
