Sweet & Sticky Slow Cooker BBQ Ribs with Coke
My mom has cancer. It’s bad. She is so strong and keeps fighting as hard as she can so when she says she’s actually hungry for something I do it – no questions asked.

Normally I would have just convinced her to go out for ribs, but because of stupid COVID I try and keep her isolated as much as possible.
