The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.
Beer makes batters better, meat more tender, and sauces more flavorful.

The crock pot always makes good, tender ribs. I liked the mustard-maple sauce combination. It had a little bit of sweetness and a little bit of tang, neither of which was overpowering. If you wish, you can run the cooked ribs under the broiler to give them more color before serving.
