Ingredients
4 pounds pork baby back ribs
salt and pepper to taste
1 1/2 cups ketchup
1/4 cup chili sauce
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
3 tablespoons vinegar
2 teaspoons dried oregano
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1 dash hot sauce
5 red potatoes (don't peal, all the good stuff is in the peel!)
5 carrots (don't peal, all the good stuff is in the peel!)
1 medium onion
Olive Oil


Directions
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

Season ribs with salt and pepper. Place in a shallow baking pan. Brown in oven 15 minutes. Turn over, and brown another 15 minutes.

In a medium bowl, mix together the ketchup, chili sauce, brown sugar, vinegar, oregano, Worcestershire sauce, hot sauce, and salt and pepper.

Largely chop call veggies and put them in the bottom of the slow cooker. Drizzle a little olive oil on the veggies and season with a little salt and pepper. 

Place ribs in slow cooker. Pour sauce over ribs, and turn to coat.

Cover, and cook on Low 6 to 8 hours, or until ribs are tender. (Or 3-4 hours on high)

Optional: If you want to have a little more crisp to your ribs put them back in the oven, at 400 degrees for 10-20 minutes.
