bbq: i need to know ASAP. it's for my 4th of july BBQ. plz no copy and paste recipes from other websites. i want to know some good home cooked recipes from you guys.|||O no dont even suggest gas for bbq ing.... I am in Texas and we know how to bbq. If you have to do it on a gas grill, buy some LAWREY'S BEEF MARINADE ( it is with the taco seasoning in HEB) HEB here has it. It comes in a small packet, you mix it with water. It is the best maranade out there !!! Other than that not mucch I can recomend. Other than buy some Hickory wood chips to lay on the lava rocks in your grill, at least there will be a little smoke flavor to the ribs.|||Before you can start, you need to make certain that your grill is large enough to support this operation. Beef ribs are exceptionally large and some small gas grills do not have the hood or grate space to accommodate their height or their large size. You will also need a grill with at least three or four burners. You can technically do it with a two burner grill, although space might be a significant problem and you will have to cook using only one burner, which might take a long time. From here on, my directions will go much easier if you have a rib rack, preferably one that has a non-stick surface. This will allow you to cook a larger amount of ribs as well as make your work go somewhat quicker and easier. With either regular or nonstick rib racks, you want to make certain that you oil it lightly and all over with vegetable oil or olive oil before placing the ribs in it. This will help to reduce sticking as much as possible. Place the ribs in the rack with the fattiest end up so the melting fat bastes the ribs as it drips down. Cook the ribs indirectly on the grill. This means that you will have to configure your burners so that at least one or two burners are off. Unfortunately if you have a medium or smaller sized grill you might have to get creative with your burner arrangement. If it is too small you might have to find another grill. You have to use the indirect method when cooking ribs like this. Direct cooking will result in ribs that are tough and burnt. Depending on the size of your grill and the number of burners, you might have to avoid using two or three burners to give you a place on the grate to place your rib rack (you can't have the burners on under the ribs, as this is direct grilling and the ribs won't cook properly). Cooking time will vary depending on how much you are cooking as well as your grills BTU output. You will have to make certain that the temperature is not too high and that you leave yourself several hours to cook, even if you are doing only a rack or two. Attempting to rush this particular cut of meat will not work and the results will be as rough as shoe leather and possibly inedible. Low temperatures and long, slow cooking with indirect heat is the best way to cook rbs of any kind, especially large beef ribs. You are probably going to have to rotate the ribs at least once during cooking, as th indirect method on a gas grill often means shutting down half of the burners on one side or end of the grill. This can lead to uneven cooking and uneven browning. Make certain that you do not place any barbecue sauce on the ribs until the last 30 minutes of cooking. If you put it on earlier, you run the risk of the sugary sauce burning.|||I'll leave the recipes to others since I just make it up as I go...but always use presoaked hard wood chips in a foil packet to get a smoky flavor (instead of fake bottled "smoke") ! And if you choose an asian style sauce, using black tea for the smoke packet gives an interesting flavor. Another hint since I'm here; if you are going to make larger ribs, pre-braising makes them guaranteed tender!|||BROCOLI CASSEROLE Cooked white rice 1 can cream of mushroom 1 can cream of chicken 1 lb. velveeta cheese thawed brocoli to your tast lots or light Pour all into a casserole dish or cake pan oven 350 mixed when cheese is all melting bake a little longer to slightley brown the top GREAT SIDE DISH AT BBQ NO BAKE CHEESE CAKE 1 bx cream cheese 3/4 cup sugar 1 bowl of whipped cream mix together till smooth pour in shell top with canned cherry pie filling chill a little while DONE just 2 of my families favorites enjoy and have fun|||I cut the ribs into pieces and boil them in water on top of the stove until done. Remove from water. Place on the grill and cook just enough to get the grill flavor into the meat. BBQ with your favorite sauce. Enjoy|||There is no known recipe.
