Hollywood Don Style, klutz proof, couch potato on a budget, slow cooked barbeque
ribs recipe.
First thang you do is go to the store and get the ribs. I prefer regular pork
spare ribs. I pick out some that are kind of equally balanced with the amount of
fatty tissue and red meat. You don't want em too lean. That fat gives em a good
flavor, like bacon, and keeps em from bean so tuff.
Pick out whatever barbeque
sauce is on sale if you's on a budget or whatever you prefer. A little bottle of
liquid hickory smoke comes in handy as does hot sauce.
The main thing is not to
be in a hurry. Rushed ribs are tough chewy ribs. You can let these thangs cook
while you're watchin football and not have to worry about em burnin up. You can
put em on the grill if you want to get that good flavor in em but you don't have
to if it's rainin mosquitoes and bugs outside. If you do, don't put em directly
over the coals if you don't want scorched ribs like Adam's wuz.
Put a big
skillet on the stove and put a little water in the bottom. After cutting each
individual rib off of the half grilled slabs, put em in the big skillet and
cover em and put the burner on low for a couple of hours so you can watch TV and
not worry about em burnin. The good thang about this besides em not burnin is
you can smell that heavenly aroma all over your house while watchin your hero
missin the game winning field goal. Incense is nice but there ain't nuthin like
the smell of ribs cookin in the house unless you're a veggie tarrian. That's the
best part of cookin em on the grill if you got veggie tarrians livin next door.
If you want to, you can run an extension cord out back and have a fan blowin the
smoke over towards their house. Ain't it grand?!
Anyway, put you a saucepan on
another burner and pour your sauce into it and leave it on simmer. You can add
whatever you feel like or whatever you can find in the pantry. Some possible
ingreedy yants=a little butter, liquid hickory smoke, Louisiana hot sauce, honey,
garlic powder, onion powder, pepper, salt, or any other thang you can find. Don't
be scared to experiment.
As always, my recipes have no connection with trine to
do what's healthy for you. My recipes are for what tastes good to you as an
individual. Anyway, just kick back and watch the game on TV. They'll be done in
a couple of hours. Just check em whenever you get up to relieve yourself or goin
to the fridge to pop another beer. Use some tongs, (not thongs) to mix em around
in the pan occaisionally. You can pour that sauce over em whenever you want.
Save a little in case you want more before you pop em in your mouth.
You'll know
when they's done when the meat is about fallin off the bones. It's makin me want
some just writin this thang down.
Another thang, if you wrap the leftover ribs
in tin foil till the next day, their even better then. Kind of like how chili is
better the next day after the different ingeediants have gotten to know each
other while waitin around in the ice box. Now, go get some ribs and another six-pack.
PS..Don't fergit to turn the stove off when you're finished and bring the fan
back inside.
Your pal, Haulwood Don
