Late yesterday afternoon we worked on getting all the wires connected appropriately so that the TV/Stereo system works like we want and then we got all the CDs into baskets so they don’t scream “Can You Believe They Have This Many CDS?” (by the way, a lame picture is under the House Proud section). Around 5 pm I started the oven on low and slow for ribs. I applied the rub to them in the morning and we always low and slow them in the oven for a couple of hours then slap them on the grill for about 5 minutes. Last night around 7, we decided that I would put some sauce on them and let them cook a little longer outside the aluminum foil–it was cold and we were warm so the grill was not an option.
I whipped up the fantabulous spinach and bacon and garlic dish and the better-half made egg noodles. We divvied up the ribs and I proceeded to eat all my egg noodles to make room for the messy eating of ribs. Then, I looked at him and said “I really don’t want ribs for dinner”. He agreed. So we finished the pasta and spinach and put the ribs back in the oven for another 4 hours so that the meat would fall off the bone. We were going to have the meat on sandwiches today but I didn’t feel like messing with it this morning. The ribs seemed like a good idea when I bought them on Friday.
