- Be sure the lid covers the cabbage. Set the timer for 8 hours on high.
- After 4 hours stir gently and lower heat to low.
- After a few hours check the ribs and pork for doneness. The meat should fall off the bone but intact. The longer it cooks the more flavor it gets. You may need to cook the stew longer or it may be cooked depending on the heat of your crock pot.
