CROCK POT BABY BACK RIBS

Steps:

• Peel the membrane off the back of the ribs. I find this goes better if I use a butter knife and start at the narrow end. Loosen that end and slowly pull it off as you work to be sure you get the whole width. Also, trim any chunks of fat on the ends and look for bone chips on the end of the ribs.
• If you want to use liquid smoke, rub a small amount on the ribs before the dry rub. Use a commercial rub or make your own. Apply a good coat of the rub.
• Cut in half and place in a large crock pot. Position the ribs in the crock pot to keep as much of the ribs elevated as possible. Use rolled-up foil if you need to brace or elevate the ribs.
• Cook on low for 7-8 hours. Do not remove the top to check the ribs as they cook. You are creating a mini oven. So, don't let the heat out. The ribs need to be "fork-tender" and reach a minimum of 185° but over 195°-205°.
• Remove the ribs. At this point, you could refrigerate for later use. Or place on pan and brush with BBQ sauce of your choice.
• Place under a broiler until you get the desired browning - about 5 minutes for me with a high broiler and the rack at 7 inches. Or you may also brown on your grill.

SLOW COOKER RIBS, POTATOES AND SAUERKRAUT

Steps:

• Remove the membrane off the back of the ribs by sticking a finger under it in the middle of the ribs, life up and pull. It may not come off in one piece. You can see how I remove this in the video.
• Preheat the oven to Broil.
• Cut the ribs into single rib pieces. Place the cut onion onto a baking sheet. Add the ribs on top of the onion. Drizzle over the oil. Sprinkle over the salt, pepper and thyme over the ribs. Add the garlic cloves.
• Place the baking sheet into the oven under the broiler. Leave in the oven until the ribs are slightly browned. Mine took about 10 minutes. Keep an eye on them so they don't burn.
• Add the sliced potatoes to the slow cooker. Add the contents of the baking sheet on top of the potatoes. Drain and rinse the sauerkraut if desired. Add the sauerkraut on top of everything.
• Pour over the chicken broth.
• Cover and cook on HIGH for 5 hours or for 7-8 on low.
• Serve and enjoy!
