LAY ON MC DUFF: I CHALLENGE THEE TO A BBQ COOKOFF!!!! |
|
OK - so you think GAS is for heathens?
Well, I, Taverner, using gas and a smoke box, challenge any of you to a rib cookoff!!!
Yes, my rips will be loved and savored by all, while yours rot in the summer sun, unloved and all alone...
Why? Becuase I perfected the ultimate rib rub, the ultimate mopping sauce and then the ultimate BBQ sauce. Yes, the mopping sauce MUST be different than the dipping sauce.
And for those of you who only do rubs, be prepared to convert, heathens.
And I will use gas - all gas - PROPANE!!!!! MAY THE HAND OF HANK HILL SMITE THEE ONE AND ALL!!!!!

16. We can use my dad's barn |
|
Seriously, now that I know you guys, I'll volunteer my back yard. But I doubt Taverner wants to bring his huge, ugly propane cooker all the way to Oaktown.

5. OK OK OK Check out my rub |
|
First, I take jalepenos, serranos and habaneros and dry them in the California sun.
Then, I grind them up in a food processor. Mix in paprika, salt and pepper. Rub liberally on the ribs. Make sure to wash hands BEFORE using the bathroom.
Let set for 4-5 hours.

Habanero and assorted peppers raise the fire content, bringing about pure pain and agony...but sweet agony at that...

11. My Dad uses propane too. |

And we are sauce people, through and through. The only time we do non-propane is for brisket.

17. Ha! HaHA!! I will enter MY ribs, which will be cooked in my oven! |
|
That's right an ELECTRIC oven, some foil and some judicious applications of flavorings will create a moist and tasty slab o' pork rib.
Bring it on!

21. So will the ribs be baby backs or spares? |
|
I vote baby backs, since with spares there are too many variables a BBQ'er can't control.

Spares can be delicious if done right...AND the meat is good.
That's the problem with Texas - they have to import their pork and thus get crappy spares. Get your pork from Nebraska and you won't have to worry about crappy spares :P
BTW...I seem to remember Salt Lick only having spares, no baby backs...and I do consider Salt Lick to be a god among BBQ'ers

28. One has to use charcoal, IMO |
|
And you're right, the best BBQ is definitely in the South. I had some of the best BBQ I've ever had in Northern Mississippi and Memphis, Tennessee.
