    Beef Ribs . . . rare to find at my store. I had to try them.

    3:45        The unwrapping.  First set of ribs had drawn back a bit on the bone and the second set still had not drawn back by much.  I rotated their positions on the racks.   Don’t have a pic of the second set of ribs since I got distracted when my future daughter in law asked for guidance in...

    The Smoking 10:30     Preheated smoker to 225 while the ribs sat on the kitchen counter for about 20 minutes. 11:00     Put the still cold ribs in the smoker.  The packages are wide open at the top to expose the meat while still retaining the marionade for moisture.  (I don’t know if this did...

    I've had my meal and it was a great success.  Documented it the entire way . . . maybe too much.  Now I'm trying to get it uploaded and my screen seems to freeze.  Not sure what's wrong but I'll keep trying.

    Great.  I've gone through the prep.  Everything sat the night in the fridge, the meat is tenderized and I didn't turn them an inch.. The apple juice is for the first hour of today's steam , which was the best way I knew to quick start ribs without par-boiling.  I’ll be switching to 2-2-1 when I...

    Am I the only one that trolls the supermarket for discounted meats?

    Don't you just love it when local grown products start kicking into the growing season?  But to tell the truth, I've not seen asparagus this cheap in years and it's got to be hurting the farmer.   Blame it on our mild winter I guess.  I'm starting to see signs of it growing in NC.  It's a cool...

    I have been doing some reading up on this.  Apparently there is a Texas way and a Chicago way, and my mom's way.  Mom used to par boil until the meat was falling off the bone, but it was never tender meat . . . as a kid I never liked it.  The Texas way brings the meat to just about passed being...

    Beef Ribs . . . rare to find at my store. I had to try them.

    These are also my first beef ribs, so maybe someone can steer me away from what's about to go wrong.  Right off the bat, as I was washing the meat I felt the toughness of it.  The challenge is on.  First thing was to quickly get it into some moisture and worry about the tenderness later. At...

    Great sale on Asparagus.  I recall years back living on a farm yard that produced a couple of pounds a day if you watered it right.  It's the first time in my life I ever got tired of asparagus, but it took me the full summer to determine that.  Nothing better than fresh (that day) picked...
