Slow cooker pork ribs recipe

I must have edited this photo half-asleep - what's going
 on withthe cornbread? It looks like food made by angels....

I didn't grow up in a rib-eating family so I wasn't really sure what I was doing with these little guys but slow cooker rib recipes are all over the net so I figured it must be a good way to cook them. I didn't have time to rustle up a recipe that day so I made up my own sauce and they turned out really well but, not being a ribs connoisseur, there may well be many ribby tricks that I missed. Feel free to educate me in the comments!

Ingredients for 4:

About 12 pork ribs
2 tbsp BBQ sauce - I used HP Honey Woodsmoke flavour
2 tbsp honey
2 tbsp Fajita seasoning
2 tsp mixed grill herbs (rosemary, thyme etc)
1/2 tsp salt

Directions:

Mix together everything except the ribs in your slow cooker to form a sauce.

Stir the ribs in the sauce until they are well coated.

Cook on Low for 6 Hours or High for 3, making sure your sauce doesn't catch.

Serve with cornbread and creamed spinach as we did or any other classic rib accompaniments you enjoy.

Verdict:

We really enjoyed how tender these ribs were. The meat was juicy but not greasy. This recipe doesn't provide so much sauce that it provides much more than a sticky coating - I saw some recipes which would have come out much wetter with the ribs swimming in sauce - but we enjoyed them this way. The flavour was fine with a sweet, smoky taste, but could do with some work for real finesse. I think I'd have liked a little more tang and maybe some more heat. I'll use this method again but I might actually find a recipe next time!
