Smothered in a mouthwatering barbecue sauce, these meaty ribs are a popular entree wherever I serve them. The recipe is great for a busy cook - after everything is combined, the slow cooker does all the work.—Pam Halfhill, Medina, Ohio

My husband is a hunting guide. So coming up with recipes for hungry hunters is a must for me. This recipe made the cut. Wonderfuly tangy and melt in your mouth meat. I made with pork, but I am sure that beef would be awesome also. This will be going in the "Family Cook Book" for sure.

I have made this recipe many times, substituting country style pork ribs for the short ribs. It is a family favorite and a crowd pleaser. (the cooking time is less for pork)
