Too many ingredients for me. I just rub them and smoke them. Not a
single person has ever complained about my ribs and they were my late
husband's favorite.

We Texans are not known for watering down our meat while cooking it. We
even serve Barbecue sauce on the side, never on the meat.

Texas BBQ is known for slat and a pepper and not much else, you're
purists who let the smoke do the talking, which is cool.

Given the choice between Texan BBQ and KC - it's Tejas all the way!

But there is merit in giving ribs a good flavor sauna too, as Diva Q does.

I believe they're from Portland, Or.

Wow..that recipe list looks like War and Peace. Don't forget to glaze
with Texas Pepper Jelly.

Sure they do.

In fact Myron Mixon get the same results by brining them before the rub
goes on.

You have even less of a clue about cooking ribs than your trollish svengali.

Yeah, that recipe sounds nasty. Something's fishy with that recipe anyway.
It doesn't sound like something that would come from that source. You won't
find anything like that on DivaQ's website at http://divaq.ca/.

All that is needed for excellent ribs is whatever rub you like that has
least a bit of sugar and plenty of salt and some black pepper, applied
fairly generously and allowed to stand 30 minutes before putting in the pit.
But injecting ribs and all that other noise is silly. And only a dummy would
wrap and unwrap their ribs to baste them and DivaQ are no dummies. Even the
best heavy duty double wrap is going to leak if you keep screwing with it.
Anway you just set them in the cooker in their wraps, bone side up, so the
meat side needs no basting.

Anyway I notice the posted recipe isn't from their site, but from one of
those general "how to do everything" websites.

If a person wants sweet wet ribs, all that is needed in the wrap is brown
sugar and honey and that is poured off after the wrap. Regardless of any
adds, wrap should be tight. After wrap, ribs should be rested with an
optional sauce glaze. Of course the sauce is expected around these parts.

The Casa Mayo troll will be along directly with the predictable bogus
"statistics" it likes to stalk me with. Ignore, it's total BS.

I haven't had time to read here much lately, but I see she's off her

For the record, I never once even considered sleeping with you. And
you know that. You're the one who somehow got the idea that I was
going to move in with you - and you posted that to RFC just out of the
total blue.

After having met you twice at casual austin.food gatherings 2 or 3
years ago and not giving you any indication that there was any sort of
romantic interest in the least, you somehow twisted that into MY
MOVING IN WITH YOU?

That was just way too Psycho for me. I sat there at stared at the
screen for at least 15 minutes wondering, WTF? That was just way too
spooky. I've met weird, semi-psycho women before but you win, hands
down. Mapi of austin.general still holds the male title, but at least
he announced his psychosis right there lying on the floor of the bar
at B.D. Reilly's rather than romantically obsessing over me for 2
years.

Needless to say, you need to come to terms with what happened and why
your mind works that way and stop making up excuses for your fixation
and disappointment before we become the next Yoli and Michael. I'd
prefer you use a sniper rifle on me from a few hundred yards away.
There you go - a reason for you to buy yet another gun and ammo.

And Jeremy, I was just tired of your decade of bullshit and visions of
grandeur about all these things you're "working on" or have not done
in the past. Even posting a call for meetings with imaginary people
about imaginary projects of yours at "the normal time and place", as
if you are somebody important with a life. I'm pretty sure you're
manic depressive mixed with habitual liar.

Sorry I don't fit either of your Ideal Psycho Pal Profiles.
