Instructions:
-
Begin by placing the onion rings at the bottom of your crock pot.
-
Next, arrange the country-style pork ribs on top of the onions, making sure to trim off any excess fat.
-
In a separate bowl, whisk together the remaining ingredients: tomato juice, molasses, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, and poultry seasoning. However, hold back the cornstarch for later use.
-
Set aside 1 cup of the sauce mixture and refrigerate it for later use. This reserved sauce will be used to create a thickened sauce to drizzle over the ribs.
-
Pour the remaining sauce over the ribs in the crock pot, ensuring that they are evenly coated.
-
Cover the crock pot and set it to cook on low for 5 to 6 hours. This slow cooking process allows the flavors to meld together and the meat to become tender and juicy.
-
Once the ribs are cooked, carefully remove them from the crock pot and keep them warm.
-
In a small saucepan, add the reserved sauce along with 1 1/2 teaspoons of cornstarch that has been mixed with cold water. Simmer the mixture until it thickens to your desired consistency, stirring occasionally.
-
Serve the succulent country-style ribs with your choice of accompaniments, such as noodles, rice, or gnocchi, and drizzle the thickened sauce over the top for an extra burst of flavor.
Enjoy this hearty and comforting meal with your loved ones on those chilly evenings, and savor every delicious bite of these tender country-style ribs! 🍽️🌧️
