BONELESS RIBS IN CROCKPOT RECIPES

Steps:

• In a big bowl, mix together flour, salt, pepper and onion powder (if you use a fresh onion put it in with the liquid instead).
• Dredge the ribs in the mixture and then assemble in an aluminum foil pan with a bit of oil. Broil in the oven until they are browned.
• While you're browning - mix together all the other ingredients (fresh onion if applicable) using a wire whisk.
• Peel and cube potatoes and arrange them in the bottom of the crock pot - season with salt.
• When meat is browned, place on top of the potatoes and pour the liquid mixture over it.
• Cook for 6 hours on high - or longer on low.
• During the last 2 hours or so, mix it up.
• During the last hour - mix it again and put in the mushrooms.
• When the crock is done cooking - remove meat; remove potatoes. Use Flour - 1 tbsp at a time to make the gravy smooth and thick - depending on how much liquid you have you'll need to keep adding the flour until smooth (I use a wire whisk and do this directly in the crock pot).
• Serve the potatoes and meat in separate plates with the gravy on the side.
• As an aside, the gravy is really delicious so you could omit the potatoes from the crock pot and do mashed potatoes instead.
• I do NOT use carrots because their taste contaminates everything in the crock pot and makes everything taste like carrots.
• I do NOT use a fresh onion because the flavour is sometimes too overpowering.
