Sweet and Sour Ribs
Turn your meal into something special with these delicious sweet and sour pork spareribs.
We enjoy slow cooker meals as we can prepare it all the night before, place it in the slow cooker, cover and refrigerate overnight. In the morning, we just set it on the counter, turn it on and go about our day. This recipe is ideal for that because it essentially marinates overnight, although marination is not required in this recipe.
