Crock Pot Baby Back Ribs w/ Potatoes Au Gratin and Baked Italian Bread.

Dinner Tonight: Crock Pot BBQ Baby Back Ribs w/ Potatoes Au Gratin and Baked Italian Bread.

 So as I always say what Mom wants Mom gets! So Ribs it was for dinner. Crock Pot BBQ Baby Back Ribs! I used Kroger Pork Baby Back Ribs. While I had the crock pot warming up I cut the rack of Ribs in half, to fit in the crock pot, and seasoned the Ribs with JB’s Fat Boy Premium Rub and I then brushed on a half a bottle of JB’s Fat Boy Haugwaush Bar B Cue Sauce. I cooked the ribs for 8 hours on low in the crock pot. After 5 hours I applied the other half of Haugwaush to the Ribs. The ribs came out tender fall off the bone delicious. No knife needed as the bones could be removed by just pulling on them. My rub and sauce are both J B’s Fat Boy products. So far Kroger and on-line are the only places I’ve seen that you can purchase J B’s products.

For sides I prepared Idahoan Au Gratin Homestyle Casserole and I baked the other half of the Walmart Bakery Marketside Everything Italian Loaf Bread. The Idahoan Au Gratin is an easy and quick way to have a delicious Au gratin Casserole. I've left the item description along with instructions at the end of the post. For dessert/snack later a 100 calorie mini bag of Jolly Time Pop Corn.
