Crockpot Cranberry Ribs

I think this was my first really successful meat dish in the slow cooker. It came out tender and juicy and delicious. This required less than 5 minutes to get ready to go in the crockpot (my ribs were already cut in individual pieces) and absolutely no work once they came out.

Ingredients

• 4 pounds Pork Ribs (I Used Ribs On The Bone)
• 1 can Whole Berry Cranberry Sauce (14 Ounce Can)
• ½ cups Applesauce
• ½ cups Orange Juice
• ½ cups Chicken Broth
• 1 clove Garlic, Minced
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Pepper
• 2 Tablespoons Chopped Fresh Parsley For Garnish (optional)

Preparation Instructions

1. Cut the ribs into individual ribs to fit into the crockpot and add them into a medium to large sized crockpot.
2. Add cranberry sauce, applesauce, orange juice, chicken broth, garlic, salt and pepper and stir. Put the lid on.
3. Turn crockpot on high and cook for at least 6 hours. Remove ribs from crockpot and set aside on a platter.
4. Skim fat from the sauce. Remove sauce from crockpot. Pour half of the sauce over the ribs and reserve the rest of the sauce for those who want more.
5. Garnish with chopped parsley.
