EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

Country-style ribs are loin-cut ribs that are meatier than spareribs and are available with or without bones. Boneless ribs fit nicely into slow cookers.

One-half teaspoon of ground ginger can be used in place of the grated gingerroot.

I cooked the ribs in the sauce and used regular baby backs and they were fabulous. I also added a few red pepper flakes to add a touch of heat.

I made a batch of Slow-cooker Orange Glazed Country Ribs and rice for my family's Sunday dinner. Because of the previous comments by reviewers, I added orange juice concentrate, diced carrots, dash of red pepper flakes, and diced celery to the sauce. Rave reviews from Family. Simply Delicious. I will make this again.

To those who found the sauce bland: Make an orange juice reduction with orange zest in place of the orange marmalade. That should intensify the orange flavor considerably. And add a light sprinkle of red pepper flakes. That will definitely add a little kick to the sauce!

The sauce looked very unappealing and flavor was rather bland...orange flavor got lost in the soy sauce.

Really good, but I did add more onion, garlic and salt and pepper to the ribs. Also made double sauce with 2 tbls. of fresh grated gingerroot. Only draw back was mine cooked so quickly in my new Wolfgang Puck Versacooker, on low they were ready in 4 hours. Sauce really good over cooked carrots and rice with dinner. Deffinately make again.
