No Grill BBQ Ribs, A Crockpot Alternative with all of the BBQ Flavor

It's Sunday Dinner time with Magical Slow Cooker and I know, we are all itching for the BBQ Grill! But, When it's buried under a foot of snow or when we work all week, we sometimes just can't get there. Whether it's the weather, or it's errands and household chores. The added task of cleaning and prepping the BBQ Grill is too time consuming.
What if I gave you a way to get that deep smokey flavor, in a melt in your mouth, BBQ Rib, with little or no trouble at all?
Your wish is my command!
These ribs can be done in the Crock Pot!!! When I tell you they are melt in your mouth, they literally fall off the bone and just melt away in your mouth! These are a must try!!!
