| Cowgirl Up!_1 - 2014-03-08 2:22 PM RidenFly - 2014-03-07 1:25 PM I absolutely LOVE a good coleslaw. I have no idea about all those Korean ingredients. Everything we cook around here is hot.
My new thing is adding fruit to my salsas. Not new in the world, just for me...I wasn't prepared to mess with salsa but now I can't stop. Watermelon, yellow, orange and red bell peppers, purple onion, cilantro, jalapeno and some fresh tomatoes, mixed with lots of fresh lime juice & some salt is the best fruit salsa!
See, I wouldn't think watermelon would work. I've tried pineapple, mango, even rasberries.
yum. |

Location: Bastrop, Texas | Some fun people on this thread! I got all excited last night and started with Louise's ribs.......then I realized I was out of natural lump charcoal!!! It was already late, so I just had to make them in the oven. It was still good, but it was sacrelege, in a way. I felt like I was breaking some kind of law. Today I am going out to pick up my natural lump charcoal. There's no excuse for this kind of negligence.
It's fun to imagine getting a bunch of people like this together for a weekend sometime. Jackpot during the day and BBQ at night with a big ass bonfire. My vote would be for a Louise/TxBO team of BBQ chefs. One of these days

Location: Bastrop, Texas | This has been a fun thread! I think a weekend get together somewhere would be a riot if you could get everyone together for a jackpot and a BBQ cookoff. I think my sides would be hurting from all the laughing, and eating. |

Do you feel like you violated a Man Law? LOL
Remember those Miller Lite commercials with the men of the square table writing man laws? |

My husband grilled amazing steaks last night too. |

brlraceaddict - 2014-03-07 2:36 PM fatchance - 2014-03-07 12:34 PM brlraceaddict - 2014-03-07 12:33 PM TXBO - 2014-03-07 12:24 PM brlraceaddict - 2014-03-07 2:14 PM HotbearLVR - 2014-03-07 11:38 AM I always love these threads. Â They are not good without TxBO and fatchance though. Â What I like about these two is they seem to make anything sound good. Â Take hot dogs, for example. Â I bet they can make a hot dog sound like a rare delicacy. Â I am certain TxBO knows how to make a helluva bratwurst.....he's a baseball fan. Â
Louise, I am going to see if I can make your coleslaw....there again, something as boring as coleslaw making my mouth water. Â You are a treasure. Hotbear my husband made homemade summer sausage from moose, homemade pepperoni from his deer, and since pork shoulder was on sale for .99 cents a pound the other day, he got some and made homemade polish kielbalsa. And a month ago he did out of this world homemade brats. If I bring a sampling of all this can I join this party? I make a dang fine homemade mac and cheese! Hey now - there is NO box of mac and cheese at my house, it's all homemade and I use 3 cheeses.   Yay - thanks for saving me Louise!! Not so fast. Three for Luck gave us the three essential elements of a bbq: 1 ) Meat 2 ) Beer 3 ) Grab ass If you're not bringing meat, you've got two options. I'd say if you don't bring meat, you should probably provide both of the others. Â
I'll bring elk in whatever form you want; sausages, streak, roast! |

Elk backstraps are awesome. You are definitely invited but hey listen, we're short on people volunteering for grab ass. Can you help us out? |

It's very juicy, which I didn't like but everyone else loved it. It's really more of a watermelon de gallo than salsa. And it really should be kept chilled. |

Location: DUMPING CATS AND PIGS IN TEXAS :) | Thanks for all the help guys. The ribs were sooooooo good. I used Fatchance's rub.....it was perfect. I kind of combined both TXBO's and Fatchance's directions. I used the apple juice and the vent instructions from TXBO really, really helped. I hit 275 a time or two, but managed for the most part to keep it between 225 - 250 degrees. I resisted the urge to check them every 15 minutes and the wood chips were awesome. I've never used them before either and loved them. And, I definitely drank beer. Next go, I'll be ready to invite family over without the worry of killing them from food poison. Thanks again, guys. It is appreciated :) |

| Glad they turned out well LRQHS. I wondered if we would get an update today. But next time we need pictures of the feast. And Hotbear - I think that sounds like a great idea. It would be fun and a barrel of laughs indeed. |

I was up to my eyeballs in ribs. I still have a lot. My chihuahuas are walking around with little rib pot bellies today too lol. I will get pics next time. All I can say, is if you make ribs, try Fatchance's rub. It is the perfect blend on sweet and spicey. I loved the brown sugar on them....loved it! |

| Glad to hear it. Watch a couple Youtube videos on minion method. It makes a slow cook on a regular grill pretty easy. |
