Mastering Pork Ribs- Man Card Tutorial

Hello and you will not believe this I was in line with some nice meaty pork ribs, and the guy in front says " I can never seem to cook those, how do you do it, I always burn them".. WTF!!! Dude, never confess that you burned the ribs, and don't burn the ribs. so this is for those who it is a mystery on killer pork ribs..

NO parboiling, if you dont know what that is google it, its cheating and lame.

rub your ribs down, don't sauce them, and stick them in a cooker with indirect heat using apple wood with average temp 250 - 300 and smoking. 
after a while your ribs will start to take on some color and start to get some dry patches,

 flip the ribs over to juice up, once you get past this stage you will start to see more dry patches on the meat side, now is the time to get out some sauce and lightly coat the ribs and let them soak the sauce in to the dryness, after a couple times they will start to glaze up and look like this 


by now your cooker should have cooled down some (approx 200f) and you just let them rest low and slow and watch..
watch the meat and the tips begin to caramelize, while the rib bone protrudes through the glazed rib meat.

you will know when its done! you don't want to be able to grab the bone and pull it out dry, too done!

   
and there you go.. A Must when your pulling out your Man Card throwing down for this weekend BBQ!.. 

Until Then, Grill that shit up!

Its Grillin and Hog Roastin Season!

Boooya and Who Dat? Boys and girls, time for some outdoor summer party fun! and I mean BBQ and Hog Roasting Time.
Local fresh produce, and free range animals make for superb Eatin! and I plan on cooking as many as I can while drinking awesome home brewed IPA.

It just isn't a party without hog roastin pig pik'in served up Cuban style in a La Caja China. If you have never experienced this sensation you need too! 








it takes 4 hours to cook a 100 pound pig to perfection. injected with Mojo Sauce and your attacking that pig like a pack of wolves.


Lets not forget about the Pirate Steak! an all time favorite of mine. this layers of steak, cheese, mushrooms, onions, roasted peppers all wrapped in bacon, grilled over charcoal, basted in its own bacon fat! then chopped up and served on a hoagie roll..


There is no limit to what to do this season, so go out and grill up something fantastic!.. this is just a small sample of my grillin activities, which seem to be on a daily basis.. 



Until Next Time.. put the heat to the meat and it will be sweet
