Do you have huckleberries in your area? They are one of our favorite summertime treats. We pick them up at the farmer's markets while they are fresh. They are a tiny fruit that takes a lot of work to pick. If you don't have huckleberries in your area you could easily do blueberries or another fruit to make this Crockpot Huckleberry BBQ Sauce Ribs Recipe.

This looks so good be used but I wouldn't know where to find huckleberries in my area. Can something be used as a substitution?
Tammilee
You could easily substitute a different flavor jelly or fruit. Maybe blueberry. I have done barbecue with grape jelly also but have not tried it on the ribs.
