Red Hot Beef Ribs

Serves 3.

6 meaty, beef, country style ribs
1/2 to 3/4 onion, sliced
2 tablespoons diced jalapeno peppers
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 tablespoon minced ginger
4 whole cloves
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 teaspoon cardamom (optional)
1/4 teaspoon turmeric (optional)
Salt to taste
1/3 cup red wine vinegar

Combine all ingredients in a crockpot. Add enough water to cover. Cook on LOW for 6 hours or until tender. Skim off excess fat as it rises to top. Remove ribs and set aside.

Remove cloves and most of onions from juice. Add more jalapenos to taste. Cook until hot. Mash up any solid ingredients with potato masher, thicken slightly with cornstarch/water mixture, then pour gravy over ribs.

Bake at 350 degrees F for about 1/2 hour to crisp.
