 Phyllis (Virginia) says:
This sauce is excellent.... in crock pot... with meatballs. Makes fantastic meatball subs. Brown meatballs.....put in crock pot in sauce for 2-3 hours... Just add the Mozzarella cheese when you put the sub together. Am finding multiple uses for this sauce.

Sauce is excellent. Am doing this in crock pot. This will be my go-to recipe. I cut recipe down to accommodate 2 ribs. If possible would give this 100 stars. I did use both sweet pickle juice a little vinegar for more tang. This is outstanding. Thank you for submitting!

 Chuck (Minnesota) says:
A simple and tasty recipe. I cooked 2.5 lbs of ribs using 1/2 the BBQ sauce, 1/2 the water, 1/2 the brown sugar, 1/4 of the ketchup. Plus I added 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce and 3 tablespoons minced garlic plus a couple heavy shakes of cayanne pepper for 3 hours at 350°F. Fork tender pork with wonderful flavor plus a little heat. By far the best country style ribs I have ever made!

Best ribs I have had in years. If I owned a resturant, I would be proud to serve these. Came out very tender which has been a problem with other recipes I have tried. Great going on a successful dish. Thanks so much.
