Raspberry Ribs
The crock pot is your best friend, you can count on it to work all day so that you can get more important things done. Crock pot ribs are a great way to get an impressive dinner on the table without lifting a finger.
Fresh raspberries make a surprisingly good base for this fragrant dinner dish. The slow cooking allows the flavors to simmer and mix together, and fruit adds just the right amount of acid and brightness to bring savory dishes together, making these ribs fall right off the bone.
