• NOTES: Jalapeno jelly is a key ingredient in this recipe; it melts into a sweet-spicy glaze that coates these ribs and beans. You can find jalapeno is bigger town grocery stores. I live in a small town and couldn't find it so I made my own. This is a very easy recipe: https://www.justapinch.com/recipe/diane-smith/red-jalapeno-pepper-jelly-dee-dees/quick-easy-other-appetizer-2 Country-style ribs are extra meaty. If they come as a slab, you'll need to cut them apart to fit them in the slow cooker. Broiling the ribs first browns them and adds rich flavor, and removes excess fat. Because of the sweet heat in these ribs I felt a sweet cheese biscuit was perfect for this dish: https://www.justapinch.com/recipe/diane-smith/sweet-cheese-biscuits-dee-dees/biscuits The perfect side dish https://www.justapinch.com/recipe/diane-smith/mamas-old-fashioned-potato-salad-dee/quick-easy-potatoes

• Pour into sterilized jars and fasten lids. Process in boiling water bath for 15 minutes, if desired, or refrigerate (the original recipe did not call for processing, however, I did process) Cool.
• NOTE: you can leave peppers in this jelly, but you would need to seed the peppers before processing. I wanted a clear pepper jelly so I strained the peppers and seeds.
