ingredients
4 racks baby back ribs (about 2 pounds each)
5 teaspoons brown sugar
4 teaspoons sweet paprika
3 teaspoons salt
2 teaspoons garlic powder
1 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 cup fresh orange juice
1/2 cup fresh lime juice
Citrus Barbecue Sauce
2 cups ketchup
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon grated lime zest
1 teaspoon grated orange zest
1/4 cup fresh lime juice
3 tablespoons fresh orange juice
3 tablespoons molasses
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon liquid smoke
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
directions
Ribs: Place the ribs on baking sheets.
Combine the brown sugar, paprika, salt, garlic powder and black pepper in a bowl. Sprinkle 2/3 of the rub over the ribs and rub it into the meat with your fingertips.
Refrigerate the ribs for 4-8 hours.
Place ribs in slow cooker and cover with lime and orange juice. Cover and cook on low for 4-6 hours until tender. (Ribs can be refrigerated for up to 2 days at this point)
Remove from slow cooker and lightly brush the ribs with the Barbecue Sauce. Save the remainder of the sauce for serving.
Prepare barbecue (medium-high heat). Grill ribs until heated through and slightly charred, about 5 minutes per side. Transfer rib racks to cutting board. Cut racks between bones into individual ribs. Arrange on platter and serve, passing remaining sauce separately.
Citrus Barbecue Sauce: Combine the ingredients in a saucepan and whisk to mix. Gradually bring the sauce to a simmer over moderate heat and simmer until thick and flavorful, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a bowl or clean jars and let cool to room temperature. Refrigerate until serving.

A can of cream of mushroom soup can be a real dinner saver. It works great in casseroles and can turn into a sauce or gravy in a pinch.
