The Great Summer 07 TB Barbeque thread

I know my profile says I am in wisconsin but i was born and raised in Louisiana. I am pretty decent at cajun food and BBQ. I'll admit I don't know "jack" about other cuisines (italian, german, chinese....etc)....but I have gumbo, sauce piquant, et toufee down to a science.

Does anybody else par boil their ribs before grilling? Some folks might say this is blasphemy, but i've found it works better and speeds things up if you're hungry and don't want to let them go all day at low heat.

EDIT: Sometimes in chicken broth.

Hey, when did the Brits learn how to barbeque???

When we started copying you guys! I'm looking forward to doing even more BBQ stuff this year, and I'll be incorporating cous cous a lot more as a side dish!

Hmmm. Chicken broth.. interesting. I've never done that, but I'll sometimes throw an onion, a few cloves of garlic, and maybe a can of beer and a dash of lemon pepper into the boil.

What, no collard greens, corn on the cob, cole slaw or barbequed beans????

Yep. Miso works too. Not too much but a weak broth type of situation.

My grill has a water trough that makes a good amount of steam. Ribs and chicken cook very slowly and stay very moist. Try putting a metal container full of water next to the coals or burner if you have room, it really works great.

only one way to cook ribs. long and low heat. 200 degrees for 3 1/2 - 4 hours. when you can twist the bones slightly its eatin time. as far as store sauce, cattlemans.

In California we barbecue all year round.

I've been into the salt rubs lately.

We BBQ year round here in Florida as well. I miss NY and grilling in the snow, that was much nicer than our summer heat and humidity
