I make this all the time. This is the same recipe that my mom used when I was growing up, and I absolutely adore it.

The only difference for us is that I don't add the gravy mix and instead of tomato paste, I add ketchup to taste while its cooking.

Delicious :-)

I used my Christmas standing rib roast ribs to make broth and served with cornbread. Also, didn't use the gravy mix.
