Ingredients

Directions

  • Dry the ribs with a paper towel and coat both sides with salt and pepper. Cut ribs into sections to fit into a heavy-bottom pot.
  • Heat the heavy bottom pot over medium-high heat. Brown ribs on both sides, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.
  • Add garlic, onion, celery and carrots to the pan. Lightly sauté the vegetables to soften, about 5 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, puree the tomatoes in a blender or food processor to thin out the sauce. Add pureed tomatoes and water to the pan and bring the mixture to a boil.
  • Add the meat to the sauce. Cover and simmer for 8 hours, or until the meat pulls from the bone.
  • Remove the meat and set aside. Remove the cooked vegetables and discard. Taste the sauce and add salt, pepper and crushed red pepper to taste.
  • Serve this sauce family-style with your favorite pasta. We recommend using Bucatini and garnishing the dish with celery leaves and parsley.
