5 – garlic crushed

2 – 28 oz crushed tomatoes

1 – 15 oz stewed tomatoes

salt and pepper

Approx a 1 -lb of Western Beef Chuck Ribs (I buy mine at Kroger)

Brown the Beef in EVOO.  Once the beef is browned on all sides, remove from pot and add onions, garlic, celery, carrots, and green peppers (add extra EVOO if needed).  Cook veggies until golden brown.  Add tomaotes, thyme, basil, parsley, and oregano, red pepper flakes, honey, beef stock, and beef ribs.  Simmer for approximately 3 hours or until beef can be shredded.  Add more seasoning if needed and add salt and pepper.  Shred the beef and add back to sauce.  Make spaghetti and pour sauce over it.  Add parsley on top (optional).  Enjoy!  Oh and dont’ forget the parmesan cheese on top as well!
