Ribs Slow Cooker

[ljonesind_10396381]

Yo, will it hurt my ribs to cook on high, instead of the low setting I found a recipe for on this website? In a hurry, of course. thanks for help!

No, but you want to watch the time, to make sure nothing burns. I made the mistake of setting the cooker to high when I meant low when making meatballs, and came home to a crock full of little round cinders!

If you reduce the cooking time by about half, you will be fine. When I do ribs in the crockpot, I usually cook them a while without sauce, drain the fat and then add sauce for the last hour.

Good Luck

Thanks, yes, I'd planned on shortening the time, but still wanted that super result. It seemed like it'd work, but I feel better having your input. Much thanks, Linda

Good points. Regardless of the type of ribs (spares, babybacks or beef), the lil' dudes are done when the temp is 200 F internally. Cooking them on high is similar to smoking/BBQ temps (240F) so no harm in cooking on high.
