Your breasts are drying out because you're cooking them far too high and too long, go by temperature not time. The thickest part should register no higher than 80 degrees. A cheap digital thermometer will sort this out. Also brining the breasts in ice cold water with a half a cup of salt and half a cup of sugar for every liter will introduce further moisture to the party.

Why is it that they also seem to dry out in a crock pot when they are submerged in liquid?

For the ribs my mum showed me the best way ever but I didn't really pay attention but its Worcester sauce, olive oil, brown sugar and maple syrup. I think that was it, put it all in a bowl until it's like a sauce then rub it all over and let them soak in the fridge over night then bake them in the oven. legit as
