How long to cook ribs in a crock pot?

Cooking time will vary based on preferences. As a general rule, the longer the cooking time the juicier and more tender the meat will be. For the best result, cook them on a low setting for 7-8 hours, or on a high setting for 3-4 hours. This will result in soft but stay on the bone meat.

What is the difference between Baby back ribs vs spare ribs?

Just remember that baby back ribs are smaller in size and also shorter compared to spare ribs. This means a rack of them will feed fewer people (about 2-3 people), but at the same time are a bit more tender and leaner. On the other hand, spare ribs have more meat on them and also more fat. This adds extra flavor when cooked. A rack of spareribs will feed about 3-4 people because they are also large in size and are meatier.

How to remove the thin membrane from the ribs before cooking?

First, just flip the ribs so the meaty side part is face down. Then, slide your fingers under the membrane and rip it off. You can use a paper towel to hold and yank it off.

Slow Cooker

Slow Cooker Recipes are versatile, super easy to make, and perfect for busy weekdays. The crock pot can do pretty much anything from breakfast, lunch, soups and stews, succulent dinners, and flavorful desserts. It requires nearly zero prep time, and even beginner cooks will enjoy using it. You just put all the ingredients in the crock pot and let it slowly cook to perfection.

Another reason we love cooking in the slow cooker is that it cooks the meat to tender perfection. Every time we use it, we end up with fork-tender meat, bursting with aromas and flavors. Whether you are cooking something special like this Slow Cooker Corned Beef with Cabbage, or a simple dinner for two, you are guaranteed to end up with a restaurant-quality dish.

During the holiday season, using the slow cooker makes the cooking process so much easier. For Thanksgiving, we love making Slow Cooker Turkey Breast, and when it comes to Christmas time, this Slow Cooker Ham is our family’s favorite dish!
