Mouth-watering Country Style Barbecue Ribs with Bell Peppers and Onions served over rice. This is an easy summer dinner recipe your whole family will enjoy!
You can make ribs in so many ways in the slow cooker. Also, try my Dr. Pepper Ribs, Ribs and baked beans or Peach Barbecue Ribs.
My mother-in-law makes the best country style ribs though her recipe is for the oven. I have never been able to recreate her recipe in the oven but I’ve found a way to make them perfect in the slow cooker!
Below is the photo of the meal all ready to go into the freezer (not cooked yet). These can last in the freezer for about a month. This meal does not need to be made into a freezer meal if that isn’t your thing, it can be thrown directly into the slow cooker.
What should I serve with this?
- Steamed white rice
- Green Salad with dressing
- Corn on the Cob
- Cajun Potatoes

Chuck says
I wondered if you could finish the ribs on the grill to give them a grilled touch. If so, what would the crock pot cooking time be?
Wanda Smith says
Hi Sarah, I would like to double this recipe. Would the cook time remain the same? If not, how much time in total would you suggest?
