It's officially BBQ season!! I know most of you are as excited as I am about the warm weather, backyard BBQ's, and all around fun in the sun. Well here is a rib recipe that will amaze the taste buds of all your friends! I created this recipe for our joint birthday party last weekend and boy was it a crowed pleaser! You can do this with beef or pork ribs, but I suggest pork because as my brother says, its harder to screw up. Another note courtesy my brother (who I might add is also a great cook) is NOT to salt the meat until right before you cook it otherwise it will suck out all the moisture. So without further adieu: 

2 racks of pork ribs


2 Tbsp granulated garlic 
2 Tbsp dried, chopped onion
2 cups pale ale or light beer
1 Tbsp chili powder
1 Tbsp ground pepper
1Tbsp sea salt
1-2 cups BBQ Sauce

In two square cake pans, marinate the pork ribs overnight in a mixture of the beer, garlic and onion. No need to cover, just place in the fridge. 3-4 hours before you need the ribs cooked and on the table, preheat oven to 300°. Mix salt, pepper, and chili powder together and rub it onto the meat. Brush on a light layer of the BBQ sauce. KEEP THE BEER in the pan, cover and place in oven for approx 3 hours, or until the meat begins to separate from the bone. Brush with BBQ sauce and grill at medium heat until theres a slight char. Enjoy!
