I want to make sure my ribs stay on the bones. I bought a package of Chinese cut ribs. It’s like they cut the ribs in thirds horizontally. I also want to cut them with two bones per piece. With such small pieces how long do you think it would take to cook...probably on low. Besides doubling the recipe I plan on making this following the exact recipe. I’m just not sure if I should add the red pepper flakes because my sister and friend do not like spicy foods (bummer for me)! Now how do I spice it up myself?!!! Lol I’ll use some Sambal Oelek! Mmmmm spicy.......

My daughter and I made these in her new crockpot i got her on Christmas Day and they were absolutely fall off the bone ridiculously delicious!!! My recommendations are to double the recipe and triple the sauce, the leftovers will most definitely not go to waste, Or have some to freeze for later If they last! This recipe is definitely in my top five crockpot recipes that I will be rotating regularly! thank you for sharing this amazing recipe it is much appreciated!

This was very quick, easy to prepare, and delicious. I didn't have enough carrots (just 2 small ones) so I served them alongside in a stir fry of celery, carrots, garlic, and sesame oil. I started the crock pot on high, but the ribs were starting to look like they were going to burn, so I turned them on low about 4 hours in. They were fall-apart done by 5 hours, so you need to be aware that your crock pot's heat may vary from the 6 hours called for in the recipe. At the end, I turned the pot back on high, took the ribs out, and added the cornstarch slurry. There was plenty of heat to thicken the sauce, so there was no extra dirty pot to wash. I highly recommend this dish, and thoroughly discourage you try it with full-sodium soy sauce. The low-sodium provided more than enough salty flavor. (Hubby just said, "those ribs were good!" (He only comments on exceptionally good dishes.) So try this one - you won't be sorry.

This recipe was awesome. I, like the previous reviewers tripled the sauce recipe and added the cornstarch to the crock pot, removed the bones , sorta shredded the meat and served over rice. I used Trader Joes full sodium soy sauce and it came out great. A word to the wise though, stay close to your crock pot! I cooked on low for five hours and had fall off the bone tender pork using country style ribs. This recipe is very versatile. You could easily sub chicken OR tofu. I defenantly will make this again. It's the perfect crockpot summer meal. Requires minimal effort with an outstanding result!

I live on a very large farm here in West Virginia. We really do live off the land. I plant a large garden, I freeze, dehyrate and can everything possible. We raise beef cattle and hunt wild game. It's a family thing.
I met my husband at work. We got stuck on night shift together and he seemed to grow on me like a wart. We married 5 months after we started dating. We have now been married 11 yrs. He's a great husband and father too our two children. Our oldest is in the 6th grade and youngest is in the 5th grade. We have lived all over the east coast. We spent 5 years in South Carolina. I would have to say it was a great 4 years. I learned so much about that area and experienced alot of different foods while there. I truely miss the people from there.
A little about me. I'm a SAHM. Most of my time here alone is spent playing euchre, canning, gardening, cooking (a lot of OAMC), flipping thru my cook books (and i have plenty) and browsing thru Zaar! I just love it here. Trying to add a lot of our family favorites.
I enjoy traveling, reading, camping, fishing, hunting, gardening, canning, bbq-ing, bon fires, entertaining, baking, playing board and card games with the kids, swimming, photography, and just being with family and friends.
