Whenever I want to thaw meat, I always use cold tap water. Cover it, change the water every 30 minutes until thawed. I thawed some bacon yesterday, and it only took about 20 minutes in the water. I would imagine that ribs would only be 30-45 minutes... if they're not completely thawed by then, they'd be pretty darn close and you could toss them on the egg.

You can cook frozen meat in a crockpot as long as your crockpot gets up to temperature and stays there for at least 4 hours. There are recipes out there!

I would say no. However, you can defrost them very quickly by putting them in a Ziploc bag, press the air out, submerge them in a bowl of cold water and run a trickle of cold water over them. You may have to set something on them to keep them submerged. I'll bet it will only take 20-30 minutes to defrost. Maybe less.
