Ribs


The night before making the ribs you need to make the rub and apply the rub.  

Make the rub in a tupperware container, you will have extra if you are only making a few racks.  

Lay out a few layers of tin foil.  Place the ribs on the foil, give them a generous amount of rib run top and bottom and seal them up in the foil.  Place foil wrapped ribs on a lipped sheet pan and place in the fridge overnight.


Rib Rub Ingredients:

1 1/2 cup brown sugar

1 1/4 cup white sugar

1/2 cup salt

1/4 cup black pepper

1/4 cup paprika

1-2 tablespoons cayenne (you can skip if you don't like heat)


To slow cook the ribs, preheat the oven to 275.  Place sheet pan with the ribs still wrapped in foil in the oven for about 4 hours.  Remove the ribs carefully from the foil and apply your favorite bbq sauce. 


I made corn boiled in a bit of a seafood boil.  I add bay leaves, old bay, salt, lemon juice, and garlic.  


The pasta salad is penne with feta cheese, halves grape tomatoes, cucumber, green pepper, onion, and Italian dressing. 


Cornbread is usually Krusteaz honey cornbread mix.  I recently tried famous Dave's cornbread mix and it was really good too.

Raku

Last night our friends had reservations for Raku and invited us along. We went to the Bethesda location but there is also a location near Dupont Circle and in Arlington. http://www.rakuasiandining.com/ They only had chopsticks at the table and I'm terrible at using them Luckily everyone else at the table was great at using chopsticks. When our friends were served the tofu salad (this looked good and you must love seaweed) they brought them forks but they used chopsticks and I scored a fork :) Our friends also ordered some spring rolls but the spring rolls on the menu seemed to come with shrimp which I dont eat. The dipping sauces that came with their rolls looked really good. The presentation of the dish was really nice They split an entree which was a bento box with beef tenderloin with pomegranate wine sauce (they said the sauce was divine) and an assortment of fish, tempura veggies, some mushrooms etc. It was a huge box of food My husband and I ordered 8 tempura green bean s...
