This one saved my you know what! I didn;t have time to do my usual crockpot prep before leaving for work this morning. So I was a bit up the creek once I got home with 3 hours max to get dinner ready and 5 pounds of Country Style Ribs on my hands. I searched for a recipe that would enable me to cut the cooking time in half from a normal crock pot session.
I found this one! I normally do not like to play around with the ingredients on a recipe that I am trying for the first time but in this case, I was not packing a trifecta of citrus and my spice rack did not have cumin seed but cumin already ground. I had NO fresh lime so increased quantities on both orange and lemon juices. I believe that cut down on the acidity as the lemons and oranges I had were quite sweet. The recipe worked like a charm. No surprises except that it was absolutely delicious. The entire family loved it and it is now going to be a repeat on our weekly menu rotation. Thank YOU!!!
I served it with homemade black beans and white long grain rice. topped it with chopped fine white onion and queso cheese. REALLY REALLY GOOD and an awesome cooking technique!
