Had a last weekend before xmas gathering yesterday with friends. Fired up some rib tips to continue and try to clear out my freezer and also one of the extra turkeys I bought at Thanksgiving. At home I don't always wrap, but I've been wanting to try peanut butter & jelly ribs for a while so was going to wrap a few of them and just see what happens :becky:. Here's the grub.
Made some pasta salad with avocado dressing which was pretty solid. Haven't tried the avocado dressing before.
Getting slaw ready. This has cumin and ginger in it which is my new magical go to. Also cilantro mixed in is quite good.
Mixed up
20 rib tips rubbed up
Firing up my Shirley
Only takes a few minutes to get to here
Put half on earlier in the day to cool and vacuum seal before folks arrived
Part way through the cook I wanted to see how hot it could get in the cooking chamber and hit maximum :biggrin1:
Here's what the fire looked like. Only had it there for about 15mins
Wife was making an oreo cheesecake for Christmas
Relaxing. Weather was mid 50's so pretty nice to be cooking
First set of tips done
Getting turkey injection ready
Getting that spine out of the way
Round 2 ribs about to go on
Injecting
Rubbed and ready
Turkey on
Also made some chex mix. I like zero pretzels in mine. I do like pretzels just not in chex mix for some reason........:crazy:
Ok here comes peanut butter jelly time
Slathered it on there. At this point in time I had no idea how they would turn out
Had a buddy bring over 5gallons of home brew (Thanks Dave!). And just in time as we almost ran out of beer in my fridge.
Also they brought over some bourbon! Hadn't tried this Four Roses single barrel before, but damn it was good
And here is a random small child trying to steal the other bourbon that was brought. She didn't want to share :loco:
After a bunch of drinking I didn't get any pre food spread shots, but here is the aftermath....The pbj ribs were damn good. You couldn't really taste the grape jelly at all as it mellowed out in the foil, but the peanut butter was 100% there and complemented the ribs well. Did 4 racks that way and they were all gone by the end of the night. At first the kids couldn't wait to try them, but the adults were the ones to finish them off. Will definitely do it again and maybe do the jelly as a finishing sauce.
Zero turkey left too other than the picking off the carcass which I ate
Banana pudding
See I told you we liked it
And finished the night off with tequila chased by pickled jalapeno juice. It is really good.
