Instructions: If ribs are fat, place on broiler rack and broil for 15 to 20 minutes; drain well. Otherwise, wash ribs and pat dry. Cut ribs into single servings. Combine remaining ingredients except rice in slow cooker; stir to mix. Add ribs. Cover and cook on low for eight to 10 hours or on high for four to five hours.

Remove ribs and keep warm. Turn slow cooker to high; add 1 1/2 cups quick-cooking rice and cook until done. Serve rice on warm platter surrounded by ribs.
