Slow Cooker Baby Back Ribs

Slow Cooker Baby Back Ribs


 "It's not rocket science, just ribs cooked in the slow cooker and finished in the oven. This is what I do when  I want ribs during the week and have to work all day. I'm eating them within a half-hour of getting home,  and they turn out perfect every time!"
