crockpot braised ribs

another recipe i love to make in my own kitchen!

ingredients:
bay leaves, fresh (4-6, torn in half)
1/2 large onion, chopped
3-4 celery stalks, roughly chopped
2-3 carrots, peeled & roughly chopped
4 medium potatoes, quartered
1.5-2 lbs of spareribs in 1" pieces

in a bowl, marinate ribs with:
soy sauce (OR 2-3 tsp salt--i use soy sauce instead)
cracked pepper
prepared, minced garlic
1 tsp honey

coat ribs evenly with marinade.

in crockpot, combine all ingredients (along with any spare marinade).
add just enough liquid to cover (any liquid of choice: water, stock or a combination)
set crockpot for 4-6 hours.

serve with rice, toasted pita bread or pasta.
