Crock-Pot: Asian-Style Country Ribs with Black Bean Garlic Sauce
These country-style pork ribs cook down in a slow cooker, simmering in a savory and slightly sweet sauce. The sauce is built from black bean garlic paste, soy sauce, honey, and a touch of sesame oil, with fresh ginger and garlic for aromatics. It's a low-effort dish that yields tender, fall-apart ribs with a rich, complex glaze. The slow cooker does most of the work, making it an easy option for weeknights.
