Slow Cooker Korean Roast (or Ribs)

This slow cooker Korean-inspired roast has a different flavor than a traditional roast, more on the sweet side, but in a good way (not too sweet). Even though using so many jalapenos sounds a little frightening to some, the meat is not really spicy, just good. It doesn't get much less complicated than this dish. Anyone can have success making it. Also, feel free to substitute pork ribs in place of a roast.
