My mother made her sauce on the weekend no recipe and this one is very very close. So I am rating this to put in my files and I will def try as per your ingredients. My mother first browned her ribs, then added chopped celery. She wanted to just add a can of tomato paste with enough water to cover but we were out so she used ready made canned spaghetti sauce - one with basil & romano and the other was a spicy sauce. I had some leftover cooked ribs off the bone that we also added and it was the best sauce ever. Served over whole wheat spaghetti and a couple of cooked spaghetti squash. Absolutely delish!!

I live in the Atlanta area but am originally from Buffalo, NY. One of the things I miss most about my home town is the wonderful food. Since I can't find most of these foods here in Georgia, I've learned to re-create them myself. Since I work full-time, like most people, our meals need to be fairly quick and easy. Although on the weekends, I try to get a little more fancy. My husband and I love trying new foods since we get so tired of the same old stuff and we LOVE using the grill. I love this site!! I look forward to trying lots of new recipes.
