GRILLED RIBS AND SAUCE
I adapted this recipe from something I saw in "Food and Drink Summer 2011"



BARBECUE SAUCE
  • 1 cup apple juice
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 3/4 cup ketchup
  • 3 tbs apple cider vinegar
  • 2 teaspoons soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tsp molasses
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon chipotle
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 cup Sweet Baby Ray's BBQ Sauce

RUB
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon thyme
  • 1 tablespoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon dry mustard
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper

2 slabs of ribs, cleaned

DIRECTIONS:

Combine all ingredients for sauce in a medium sauce pan. Cook over medium heat until sauce thickens and reduces by half.

To make rub, combine all ingredients together in small bowl.

Rub ribs with dry rub. (I did mine the night before, so the flavors would be into the ribs).

Grill over charcoal grill for about 45 minutes to an hour, flipping every 5 to six minutes.

When ribs are done, brush them with sauce and let sauce cook onto ribs, about 10 more minutes.

Serve with dipping sauce.

KETO LASAGNA

Image
An easy and super tasty lasagna, enjoy all the taste, without the carbs!  Even my picky sons loved this dish. I’ve tried multiple options for a low carb lasagna.  I’ve tried zucchini noodles.  Yuck!  I’ve tried spaghetti squash, still wasn’t what I was looking for.  Then, I discovered konjac noodles and thought this is it!  Sigh, it wasn’t.  After that, I saw a couple YouTube videos and looked into making some kinda cheese noodle in the oven and bake it and cut into strips.  That was a no for me, too much work.  I’ve already got enough to do.  Then, I thought, maybe a low carb taco or pita shell.  That led to cheese slices, then it hit me, deli meat.  Imagine, choirs singing!  Yes, that was it!  Fast, quick and super easy and super tasty.  My husband and sons didn’t even know I substituted the noodles. All ready to go in the oven TAH-DAH!!! The Best Keto Lasagna ...

The Perfect Brunch

Image
Brunch is the perfect meal.  You have the heartiness of breakfast plus the casualness of a great lunch.  You can have breakfast food and dinner food.  In my book, it's a win-win.  I typically host brunch three or four times a year for my family and friends and these are items that frequently make the list. OMELETTE STATION One of the things we often do is have an omelette station.  We provide eggs, various shredded cheeses and veggies. Guests bring various fixings like cubed ham, bacon bits and mushrooms.  We have to skillets going making individual omelettes. HASHBROWN CASSEROLE This really rivals the hashbrown casserole at the Cracker Barrel.  It is sooo good. INGREDIENTS 1 pint sour cream (fat free works well, too) 1 can cream of chicken soup (or cream of mushroom soup for vegetarians) 2 lbs (32 ounces) hashbrown potatoes, thawed 1/2 cup onion, finely chopped 2 cups cheddar cheese 1 teaspoon salt 1/4 teaspoon pepper DIRE...
