A Case For Boiling/Steaming Ribs?

[SheilaAnn]

As I often find myself perusing recipes…. I came across this. Anyone try it? I’m going to give it a shot next week. Stay tuned!

and for Team Paprika

At least this will divert energy from the chili with or without beans fracas.

[Huskee]

...and the six pounds of salt for 8 minutes fracas...

[ecowper]

6 lbs of salt for 8 minutes? Huh, I missed something

[texastweeter]

Get a rope

[Bkhuna]

As long as you don't call it BBQ, you can prepare ribs in many other ways.

[PGH_RAM]

I came here to say the same thing.

[shify]

Haven’t made this recipe but sounds good. And there are times when boiling/steaming ribs is not just okay but good. For example a great dim sum dish is steamed ribs with black beans.

But to be clear would never boil ribs, slather on some KC masterpiece and call them bbq ribs!

[bmillin]

We need a fracas list so I can keep track

[DaveD]

This right here. Fracas and Brouhaha!

[DaveD]

But maybe SheilaAnn's cook will provide an opportunity to revisit the "shiny side or dull side?" aluminum foil brouhaha...

[texastweeter]

Or pre burning your wood

There could be a genuine donnybrook brewing here. I’m pretty sure SheilaAnn is not a terrorist but what if they’ve captured her and are forcing her to talk about boiling ribs? We should send her help as soon as possible. What if it’s a medical emergency and she’s delirious? What’s if vegans have taken over her account and are trying to discredit her in front of her friends? SheilaAnn would never boil ribs would she? I’m pretty sure this is a cry for help!

[jfmorris]

I know! Just what I was thinking too. I think we need to start asking for proof of life photos, with her holding a newspaper with the current date. Well heck. No newspapers anymore....

[Alan Brice]

At least the check-a-box, are you a bot?

[DaveD]

Yeah, this is her speaking in code that her nefarious captors won't catch on to. Clearly, her way of saying GUYS SOMETHING IS VERY WRONG HERE.

[Smoker_Boy]

I think SheilaAnn would just use an extremely moist air cooking method.

[ecowper]

you said moist

[texastweeter]

ecowper I just su ked bourbon down the wrong pipe!

[ecowper]

texastweeter LOL

[yakima]

Fracas, brouhaha, donnybrook. Generating many good labels here.

[RichardCullip]

Add kerfuffle to the list

[yakima]

I finally, actually, learned something here. Always thought kerfuffle was spelled kerfluffle. Not that I have used the word.

[texastweeter]

Shenanigans

[jfmorris]

Just steam them in the instant pot, under pressure. Fall off the bone results for sure I bet!

[Alan Brice]

Been there, will not be back.

[Steve R.]

This bunch has never brawled like we did a few years ago over pre-burned wood splits. One or two got themselves banned over that one. We'll get through this and still be friends.

[ecowper]

Darn it, I came here to say this!

[texastweeter]

Or mountainsmoker

[Donw]

Thank goodness there is a statute of limitations in our justice system or otherwise I wouldn’t admit that I was part of a conspiracy to boil not only ribs but half chickens as well. In my youth JHU held an annual spring festival on the Homewood campus and my little group decided to rent a space to sell food. We really couldn’t cook but as chemistry majors we did know how to boil water. We parboiled everything, then slathered them in sauce and finished them over a charcoal grill. Everyone loved our “BBQ” and we sold hundreds and hundreds of plates.

[Oak Smoke]

You guys were the PT Barnums of BBQ!

[texastweeter]

You probably also played with mercury...
