Amazing Slow Cooker Ribs For Your Amazing Grace Cookout

It’s almost the fourth of July! We are gearing up for a big day with friends and family and of course it will be centered around FOOD! This is the first year in our new home and we are trying to get outside of our little bubble and socialize. Anyone else focusing on this as well? We really want to use our home for fellowship and what a better way to do that than to have a cookout?

I love cooking and thanks to Lidl, I don’t have to go out and search a million places for the ingredients that I need. They have a big sale happening for their St. Louis style ribs that cannot be beat. Because of the sale, I decided to try this recipe a couple days before we had people over to make sure it was a hit, and it really was! I am so excited it was a success and to share this recipe with y’all so you can head to the store today to pick up the items needed. These ribs were fall-off-the-bone delicious and tasted like we spent a lot of money on them at a BBQ restaurant. I also love that it was sooo easy to make something so delicious because we used the slow cooker! Head over to your local Lidl to get them today and have your own easy spread for tomorrow.
