This Vintage Charleston recipe for “Cheaper by the Dozen Spare Ribs” came from my “Charleston Receipts” recipe book I bought last year on one of my many visits to this historic favorite destination. I was inspired to make it for a little step back in time, and it turned out to be a most delicious meal. It uses very basic ingredients and easily and quickly comes together for a tasty family meal “on a budget.”

This delicious recipe for Brunswick Stew was given to me by my Grandmother and modified for an easy crockpot slow cook. Chicken, stewed beef, tomatoes, potatoes, onions, butter beans are the main ingredients, along with a few simple add-ins for the tasty broth. Try this easy recipe for a simple, yet delicious crockpot meal for a large crowd or family.
