Barbecued Ribs in the Crock Pot

Barbecues Ribs in the Crock Pot

This recipe was one my mom made a lot.  She would mix up the sauce and pour it over the meat then cook it in the oven for an hour or more. I like it done in the crockpot.

1 tsp chili powder
1 tsp celery seed
2 cups water
1 cup ketchup
1/4 cup vinegar ( I use apple cider vinegar)
1/4 cup worcestershire sauce
1 onion
1 lemon
3 pounds pork (ribs, steaks or chops)  We like the boneless short ribs or the boneless chops.

Spray the crockpot with cooking spray.  Layer one half of the ribs in the bottom. Slice the lemon and onion in thin slices.

Spread 1/2 of the onions and lemon slices over the ribs in the crock pot.   Add the remaining ribs and cover with the rest of the onions and lemon slices.

Mix the remaining ingredients in a large mixing bowl.  Pour over the meat in the crock pot.

I don't stir it but to take a knife or long spoon and just push it down to the bottom to allow the sauce to get between the ribs. 

Cook on Low for 5-6 hours.
