Serve the ribs with coleslaw and crusty bread.

Cola adds a wonderful sweetness to the ribs, but you can use water for the cola.

Spray the inside of the slow cooker with cooking spray to make cleanup a snap.

These ribs really rock. Due to weather problems that came up while the ribs cooked we were not able to BBQ at the end so just slathered them in Bullseye. No matter, people just scarfed them down. My additions were 2 tbsp each of honey and molasses. The onion slices were like sugar candy slices, only better!

I am a baby back rib lover and have tried different recipes at home and at restaurants. This recipe is the best. Everytime I serve the ribs to company, I am asked for the recipe. I don't have to search new rib recipes anymore. This is the ultimate for us!!
