Sear the ribs in a large saucepan, add the soup greens and deglaze everything with water. So much water is needed that the meat is well covered. Cook the meat for about 1 - 1.5 hours and occasionally skim off the foam with a slotted spoon.
During this time the cocktail sauce can be prepared. Mix the mayonnaise with the ketchup, salt, pepper, brandy and Tabasco in a small bowl. It should be a little darker, like salmon-colored, and be pleasantly hot.
Cut the meat into cubes and place in a large bowl. Add cocktail tomatoes, white onions, peppers, onions, corn on the cob and the sauce and mix well.
Let the salad stand in the refrigerator for at least 6 hours. It tastes best the next day.
Fresh baguette goes well with it.
The number of servings also depends on whether there is only this salad or whether it is part of a buffet with other salads, for example.
Tip: The beef broth can be used very well for soups.
