BBQ'ed Pork Time

 When you see the Miller bottles in this photo, you will know this is not a new recipe.



I have been at this cooking stuff for quite a while and have recipes and photos that are somewhat dusty. As an antique auctioneer might say, "This one is not an antique, but it certainly has some age on it."

As far as I know, BBQ hasn't changed all that much in the last fifteen years, at least for me. They still sell country style pork ribs (rib sized slices of pork loin with no rib bones) at Piggly Wiggly and I still like to rub them with some of ZeroBear PolyBear's world famous dry rub and smoke them slowly on the grill. Country style pork ribs are somewhat dryer than real ribs, but boy are they tasty on the plate. We will do real Pork Ribs later.

Here is how I do them.

Ingredients:

One or two packages of Country style Pork Ribs (not really ribs) from the butcher's counter.


A healthy four or five Tablespoons of ZeroBear's World Famous Rib Rub and three Tablespoons of Brown Sugar.


The bear doesn't care if you make it yourself. If you choose to purchase your dry rub from ZeroBear. he sells it for $876,448,937,277.43 for an eight ounce bottle. 

If you do it yourself, it mixes like this:



mix well in bowl and store in an old sealable spice bottle.

You will need a BBQ pit with charcoal fire, away from (not underneath) your pork pieces.



Coat pork liberally with dry rub and a couple or three Tablespoons of Brown Sugar.


 


Onto the grill, away from charcoal, not directly over it.


Adjust heat to cook slowly for an hour or two to help tenderize the pork.



Add Your favorite BBQ sauce. Coat liberally several times and continue cooking to set the sauce.


I like Potato Salad, maybe some beans, bread, and usually some amber fluid with my pork.



This series of photos is maybe 12 years old. I have repeated this dish exactly the same way probably 20 times in the last twelve years, always the same, except I used newer Beer.

Thanks for looking at my post.
Gid Bless You.

I prefer country style ribs because they're meatier than those wimpy baby back ribs. Thank you for your dry rub recipe. It's very similar to my house rib rub seasoning. I put the rub all over the ribs after pulling off the silver skin, wrap them in foil and put them in a 300-degree oven for a couple of hours till they are tender. Then I put them on the outdoor grill to get some smokey flavor. Yum.

Do you still own that Silverado? If so, since you are in such an advanced age would you be willing to sell it to me? It looks perfect for a Carolina squat!

" Love the dry rub".

Same here ...
but pouring a bottle of store bought BBQ sauce on the finished product would ruin the effort
spent on preparing the dry rub.

Any Southerner knows you 'pose to have a wet warsh-rag beside a plate of BBQ, not no cloth napkin stuffed in a ring.

Hint: You can't no longer find real strong, sectional paper plates at the stores. I have to order them off the internets. Plastic plates melt and who wants to warsh dishes after bar B Que? Where's the devilish eggs?

Trollfest '09

Trollfest '07 was such a success that Jackson Jambalaya will once again host Trollfest '09. Catch this great event which will leave NE Jackson & Fondren in flames. Othor Cain and his band, The Black Power Structure headline the night while Sonjay Poontang returns for an encore performance. Former Frank Melton bodyguard Marcus Wright makes his premier appearance at Trollfest singing "I'm a Sweet Transvestite" from "The Rocky Horror Picture Show." Kamikaze will sing his new hit, “How I sold out to da Man.” Robbie Bell again performs: “Mamas, don't let your babies grow up to be Bells” and “Any friend of Ed Peters is a friend of mine”. After the show, Ms. Bell will autograph copies of her mug shot photos. In a salute to “Dancing with the Stars”, Ms. Bell and Hinds County District Attorney Robert Smith will dance the Wango Tango.

Wrestling returns, except this time it will be a Battle Royal with Othor Cain, Ben Allen, Kim Wade, Haley Fisackerly, Alan Lange, and “Big Cat” Donna Ladd all in the ring at the same time. The Battle Royal will be in a steel cage, no time limit, no referee, and the losers must leave town. Marshand Crisler will be the honorary referee (as it gives him a title without actually having to do anything).


Meet KIM Waaaaaade at the Entergy Tent. For five pesos, Kim will sell you a chance to win a deed to a crack house on Ridgeway Street stuffed in the Howard Industries pinata. Don't worry if the pinata is beaten to shreds, as Mr. Wade has Jose, Emmanuel, and Carlos, all illegal immigrants, available as replacements for the it. Upon leaving the Entergy tent, fig leaves will be available in case Entergy literally takes everything you have as part of its Trollfest ticket price adjustment charge.

Donna Ladd of The Jackson Free Press will give several classes on learning how to write. Smearing, writing without factchecking, and reporting only one side of a story will be covered. A donation to pay their taxes will be accepted and she will be signing copies of their former federal tax liens. Ms. Ladd will give a dramatic reading of her two award-winning essays (They received The Jackson Free Press "Best Of" awards.) "Why everything is always about me" and "Why I cover murders better than anyone else in Jackson".

In the spirit of helping those who are less fortunate, Trollfest '09 adopts a cause for which a portion of the proceeds and donations will be donated: Keeping Frank Melton in his home. The “Keep Frank Melton From Being Homeless” booth will sell chances for five dollars to pin the tail on the jackass. John Reeves has graciously volunteered to be the jackass for this honorable excursion into saving Frank's ass. What's an ass between two friends after all? If Mr. Reeves is unable to um, perform, Speaker Billy McCoy has also volunteered as when the word “jackass” was mentioned he immediately ran as fast as he could to sign up.


In order to help clean up the legal profession, Adam Kilgore of the Mississippi Bar will be giving away free, round-trip plane tickets to the North Pole where they keep their bar complaint forms (which are NOT available online). If you don't want to go to the North Pole, you can enjoy Brant Brantley's (of the Mississippi Commission on Judicial Performance) free guided tours of the quicksand field over by High Street where all complaints against judges disappear. If for some reason you are unable to control yourself, never fear; Judge Houston Patton will operate his jail where no lawyers are needed or allowed as you just sit there for minutes... hours.... months...years until he decides he is tired of you sitting in his jail. Do not think Judge Patton is a bad judge however as he plans to serve free Mad Dog 20/20 to all inmates.

Trollfest '09 is a pet-friendly event as well. Feel free to bring your dog with you and do not worry if your pet gets hungry, as employees of the Jackson Zoo will be on hand to provide some of their animals as food when it gets to be feeding time for your little loved one.

Relax at the Fox News Tent. Since there are only three blonde reporters in Jackson (being blonde is a requirement for working at Fox News), Megan and Kathryn from WAPT and Wendy from WLBT will be on loan to Fox. To gain admittance to the VIP section, bring either your Republican Party ID card or a Rebel Flag. Bringing both and a torn-up Obama yard sign will entitle you to free drinks served by Megan, Wendy, and Kathryn. Get your tickets now. Since this is an event for trolls, no ID is required. Just bring the hate. Bring the family, Trollfest '09 is for EVERYONE!!!

This is definitely a Beaver production.
