Thanks, BB. I'm definitely going to try out a few recipes this summer.

Good stuff.
Im tellin you if you like BBQ pork ribs.Try to make them like I do mine.It's well worth the wait,you can even cut down the first 3 hours to 2 hours.



I BBQ mine with the 3-2-1- method.

-I start off wit a St.Louis cut spare rib,I rub it up reel good with a good rub and let it sit for about 30 minutes.(or wrap in plastic wrap over night,in the fridge)

-I then fire up my grill with charcoal and apple wood chips(or hickory or cherry) in half of the pit.

-After the fire gets right I throw the ribs on the side with no fire for 3 hours (2 hours is fine though) and close the lid.(Baste with apple juice every once in a while)

-After 3 hours,I wrap in foil and pour a little apple juice in with them for 2 more hours.

-After that 2 hours is up,I take out of the foil and let cook for about 1 hour.The last 20 minutes I slather with sauce and get ready to grub.

Them some good ribs

Does that mess anything up?
You get your man card pulled for that shit.

Go buy yourself a cheap lil smokie or something. Nothing better than slow cooking meat on the charcoal grill.

What? This is some bullshit. I have a grill and I'm making my own BBQ sauce, and yet I'm getting my man-card pulled before I don't have a charcoal grill!?

Fuck y'all then!!! :lol:
Any self respecting man has a charcoal grill, even if it is hidden away in the garage. Never know when you are going to need it for times like this.

Chef's not yet famous home made BBQ sauce



1 large onion, finely diced
6 cloves garlic, chopped
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 teaspoon ground cumin
2 tablespoon olive oil
1 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup molasses
1 (40 oz) bottle tomato ketchup
1 cup apple cider
1/2 cup cider vinegar
2 tablespoons yellow mustard
1/8 tsp. mesquite smoke (just a few drops - optional)
3/4 teaspoon sea salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground

In a saucepan, heat the onion, garlic, pepper flakes, and ground cumin in olive oil. Cook until the onions are softened.
Stir in the brown sugar, molasses, ketchup, apple cider, vinegar, and mustard. Bring the mixture to a boil, reduce to a simmer, and cook for 20 minutes longer. Add salt and pepper, to taste. Stir in a few drops of mesquite smoke flavor if like a smoky flavor (optional).

Pour into a sterilized pint sized canning jar and seal or large tupperware... Keeps, refrigerated for several weeks. If you want to store the BBQ sauce for a longer time (on the shelf) process it in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes.

Makes enough for about 2 pint sized jars. Recipe may be doubled or tripled for canning.

As always, Happy Cooking!
Chef

I actually own a propane gas grill and use it a lot.... There is a great flavor added when you use charcoal no question but I use my gas grill because I'm ready to cook in 5 minutes.... Plus I cheat a little by adding liquid smoke to my BBQ sauce... 8)

For cooking for four people:

Tomato Ketchup x4 tablespoons
Worcestershire Sauce x1 (or 2) tablespoon
English Mustard x1 teaspoon
Golden or Brown Sugar x1 tablespoona
Rice or White Wine Vinegar x2 tablespoons

I usually cook this with chicken thighs. And I double the amount of sauce because I'm a fat ass motherfucker.

Slice up an onion, garlic clove, and green pepper (deseeded), and heat with some virgin olive oil. When the veggies are soft, add the sauce contents to the pan. Cook for ten minutes on a medium-to-low heat until bubbling. Check it and stir occasinoally to avoid burning.

Because I cook it with chicken thighs, the chicken would've already cooked for like 30 minuites. I then add the chicken to the sauce, mix it in, and pop it in the oven for a further 30 minutes. I usually have it lidded, although you're meant to cook it on like a baking tray or whatever so the sauce kind've marinades into it (as opposed to drenching the chicken like I like it).

sounds interesting undie, an easy to make sauce with ingredients that we pretty much all have i'm sure. So how do you add kick to it?

I telling yall,This "Blues Hog original"sauce is the greatest sauce ive ever had on pork.A very interesting flavor,very sweet (kind of a fig or cinnamon taste) and kinda tangy too,but when its on ribs or pork steaks it just adds a little sweet kick to the meat.

I added more to my original post. I tend not to add anything else, although you could try mixing in some dried chili.
