Spare Ribs and Sauerkraut in a Crockpot

Getting ready to go visit my friend Pam in Kentucky.  I like to bring our food. I've had a busy week, and volunteered at the Another Chance for Animals adoption event at Petsmart today. So I tried a spare ribs and sauerkraut crockpot recipe. It stunk up the house pretty good, but I'm very pleased with how tender and yummy it is. And, finally, a ribs recipe with nothing I shouldn't eat in it!

I followed a recipe that I found on cooks.com http://www.cooks.com/recipe/yj42n9r2/country-style-pork-ribs-and-kraut.html

INGREDIENTS

2-3 pounds pork spare ribs (county style or regular)

2 cans, or about 28 oz, sauerkraut

Salt and pepper

COOKING INSTRUCTIONS

Salt and pepper the ribs on all sides. Brown the ribs on all sides on a preheated grill or on broil in the oven, about 4-5 minutes per side. Place 1/2 the sauerkraut in the crockpot. Place the ribs on top. Cover the ribs with the remaining sauerkraut. Cook on Low for 8-10 hours.
