Simple, delicious recipe for making baby back ribs in sauce.

One of the best meals out of
my former mother-in-law's kitchen was ribs. I didn't have much experience with them then, but dinner at her house
was especially good when she made her baby back ribs. I remember a particularly delicious night
sitting on her deck when I finally asked her for the recipe, and she seemed
pleased to share. Yesterday morning, I
got a call informing me that she had just passed away. It wasn't until much later in the day that I
realized I had already planned to make ribs in the slow cooker -- something I
don't often do. Here is the recipe she
gave me. It is casual, the way you share
recipes with people while sitting outside. Diane, you will be missed.
