This recipe uses the same mole sauce that’s included in the sauces chapter. The difference is that the sauce in the sauces chapter is made on the stovetop, while this recipe has the slow cooker do the work for you—so you can make the entire meal in one step and in one pot. If you already have a batch of mole sauce made, you can use it here. Simply pour the prepared sauce into the slow cooker, add the ribs, and start cooking.
