Ribs are good with that kind of sauce too.
You can make a sauce for ribs with ketchup, chili powder
brown sugar and Colemans dry mustard.

The dry mustard and the brown sugar are the ingredients that give it the sweet and sour taste.
If you don't have brown sugar,
strawberry or grape jelly will do fine.

Boil the ribs for 30 minutes to melt away the fat.
Remove from water, let drain.

Make the sauce, not too thin, not too thick.
Whisk together:
1 Bottle of Ketchup
1 Tsp Chili Powder
6 Tblsp. Brown Sugar
6 Tblsp Colemans Dry Mustard Powder
Water to thin sauce if needed.

Place ribs in roasting pan and cover completely with the sauce.
Bake in 325 F oven for 3 hours.
Check every 30 minutes and add a small amount
of water to the bottom of the pan so it doesn't get too dry.

The meat will fall off the bones and melt in your mouth when done.
I had the opportunity to cook moose ribs like this once, they were super.

Mmmmmmmmmm

The garden is in and with Cinco-de-mayo tomorrow I thought I'd share this recipe that I lifted from AOL. I will come up with some creative dishes this summer and fall using ingredients from my garden and fishing trip the end of this month, hoping I catch some fish that is?

***HUGS***



Pico de Gallo


Ingredients
2 ripe medium tomatoes (about 12 ounces)
1/4 cup cup finely chopped white onion, or to taste
12 large fresh cilantro sprigs, thick stems removed, remaining stems removed, remaining stems and leaves finely chopped (about ? cup)
1 medium jalape?o or small Serrano, finely chopped (about 1? tablespoons), or to taste
Juice of 1 lime, or to taste
1 tsp olive oil (optional)


Cooking Instructions
Core the tomatoes and cut them in half. Gentle squeeze out most of the seeds, and cut the tomatoes into ?-inch (no longer) dice. Toss the diced tomatoes, onions, cilantro, and jalapeno together in a mixing bowl. Add the salt and lime juice, then stir in oil, if using. Let sit for a few minutes. The salsa can be made and kept at room temperature for up to 4 hours ? no longer ? before serving. Stir and taste again before serving.

Here's another one

Guacamole


Ingredients
1 Hass avocado
3 Tbsp chopped onions
1 tsp chopped seeded jalape?o chile
1 1/2 tsp chopped cilantro
2 Tbsp chopped tomato (discard juice & seeds)
Salt
Cooking Instructions
In a bowl using the back of a wooden spoon thoroughly mash the following ingredients into a juicy paste (using salt as a grinder): 1 T chopped onions ? tsp chopped jalape?os ? tsp chopped cilantro ? tsp salt

Holding the avocado in the cup of your hand split the avocado in half lengthwise and remove the seed. Slice the avocado lengthwise in approx. 1/8? strips; then slice across forming a grid. Scoop the avocado out of the skin with a spoon. Repeat with other half of avocado.

Add the avocado to the paste and thoroughly mix together. We mix the ingredients rather than mash them; this leaves the guacamole chunky and somewhat firm not mushy. Then add the rest of the ingredients and fold them together gently. Add jalape?o chiles and salt to taste.

Serve with fresh corn tortillas and/or chips.

LOL How we differ on this board from one to another, eh? I LOVE cilantro! The Mexican Parsley, that's what it is, and a most excellent feature in herb beds.

But, if you were coming over, Kares, I'd forgo the cilantro. You rock, it's just a weed.

Wow! :shock: A sign of a true friend. :-D I'm not kidding. Oy the trepidation whenever I go to a restaurant that they don't sneak it in a salad or soup or whatver.

At Mexican restaurants I have to tell the waiter each time...NO CILANTRO!!!! About 1/2 the time it works and the rest of the time a beautiful meal is wasted that was touched only once. :( I went to Mexican restaurants ALL the time growing up and they didn't put that vile sneaky parsley in the food! Why'zit in EVERYTHING now?

Oh and I appreciate that you love cilantro, t. My sister does too. I wish I did. I'd be a happier, more relaxed person. :roll:

Whenever we have "gross out" sessions to make a point she will use cilantro as an example and I will use her bugaboo (which I love) mayonnaise.

"It's was SO gross!!!" "It was like forcing you to eat an entire bowl of cilantro!" :shock: :shock: :shock: :twisted:

LOL Sounds like you two have a good relationship.

BTW...I keep mayo (the real stuff not that vile fake gel) in my fridge all the time, and there should be a backup in the pantry just in case as well!
