America Get Ready, Its Time To Cook Out

St Louis has just been named the number 1 Barbecue City in America by the National Barbecue Association. St louis is famous for its great barbecue, ribs and barbecue sauces.

There's nothing that can bring a family and friends together like a cookout with that great smoky barbecue flavor. And don't forget the seasonal sides you can also grill right there on the grill. Buy dry Italian Salad Dressing and sprinkle it on things like corn on the cob and squash sliced in long slices instead of in round slices. And you really should try slices of pineapple and apples with a light coating of your favorite BBQ sauce before you place them on the grill. Lightly grill these to carmelize the sugars and serve with homemade ice cream.

And remember that you can grill almost anything. Try grilling your chicken wings on the grill instead of deep frying them. As you grill them sprinkle them with dry italian seasoning and at the last few minutes of grilling time brush on your favorite BBQ sauce for what are guaranteed to be some of the best wings you and your family and friends will ever eat.

Don't forget to serve your BBQ meal with great homemae potato salad and a real good cole slaw. And what ever you do don't forget to serve some really good garlic bread with your BBQ meal. Keep in mind that most people like some bread with their meat. And another real favorite to serve with your BBQ meal is homemade banana pudding.

11 Tips To Make The Best BBQ Ribs

I hope you realize that barbecue can be a risky business. You go to the trouble of planning that great barbecue and invite your friends and family over but how do you know that your barbecue is going to be as good this time as it was the last time. Even the best barbecue chef can sometimes make mistakes but here were going to give you 11 tips to make the best Barbecue Pork Ribs you will ever eat in your life. And no you don't have to go down to Texas to get them. You can create the worlds best barbecue ribs right there in your back yard.

1. Be careful when picking out the pork ribs you are going to bbq later. You want the meat evenly distributed over the slab of ribs. You don't want a rack of ribs with a lot of fat or meat at one end. Never buy your ribs in a closed up box as you won't know the quality of the ribs you are getting.Also you will want to avoid slabs of ribs with exposed bones.

2. You will want to have half a slab of ribs for each adult at your barbecue. A third of a slab of ribs will be enough for most children.

3. When you are preparing your ribs be sure to remove the silver colored skin from the underside of your ribs or if possible have your butcher to do it for you.

4. If you are going to cook ribs on a regular basis your going to want to shop around and find you a plastic pan that ribs will fit in with a lid. You will also want it to fit on a shelf in your refrigerator. Always marinade your ribs in the refrigerator and never at room temperature.

5. Most people like to precook their ribs by cooking them in a pot of boiling water that you have added a cup or two of apple cider vinegar to. Be careful to remove your ribs from the pot as soon as they start to get tender.Now they are ready to go on the grill. And they will be oh so tender and delicious.

6. Before you place your ribs on the grill you want the grill to be at low to medium heat. And you will want to take a grill rag or brush and apply a generous amount of vegetable oil to your grill to prevent the grill from sticking.

7. Cooking meat on the grill requires constant attention. Stay close to your grill and at the first sign of your meat catching fire spray the hot spot with a spray bottle of water to cool off the hot spot. If at all possible try to keep your cooking temperature down to 250 degrees and if you pre cooked your ribs they should be done in 2-3 hours. Don't baste them with BBQ sauce until the last 45 minutes of cooking time. If you apply the BBQ sauce to early the sugars in your BBQ sauce will get to hot and burn your ribs.

8. You will want to have a couple of sets of tongs to use on your grill to turn your meat or ribs over with. You don't want to use a fork as this will let some of the flavor escape.

9. Keep your hot coals over to one side and cook your ribs over on the other side of the grill. Keep some hot charcoal in a large metal can in case you want to add more hot coals if your cooking temperature gets to low.

10. Let your cooked ribs stand for about 15 minutes before you serve them. Serve your ribs with more BBQ sauce on the side.

11. Be sure to read the above tips and apply them and you will cook the best BBQ Ribs you will ever eat.

I never boil my ribs (or any meat for that matter). I season them, tightly wrap them in aluminum foil, and put them in the oven at 325 degrees for two hours. If you want the meat falling apart, add a little more time. Two hours gets them tender but not falling apart. Then, I put them on the grill to finish them and get them sauced up. You can't screw this up it is so simple.
