How to Cook Ribs R 'n B Style
There are many ways to cook ribs from marinating, crock pot, deep frying, even broiling. All are good and each one has its own unique taste and advanages. R 'n B Foods has its own way of cooking ribs. If done right, it will give you candy coated, juicy, drop off the bone ribs that will have your family and friends begging for seconds. Follow the directions below and we guarantee you will be the hit of the table even if you have never cooked before. Enjoy!
- Get a good rack of ribs with a ratio of meat to fat of about 80% meat to 15% fat.
- Remove the membrane off the backside of the ribs (a good butcher will have already done this for you).
- Cut the ribs into manageable pieces (I go for serving size of four ribs to a rack).
- Place the ribs in a shallow square dish or a freezer bag and add about one quarter jar R 'n Bs Big Bang Barbeque Sauce ensuring the sauce fully covers the ribs.
- Let marinate in the fridge for a minimum of 30 minutes.
- Start the barbeque and set it to high to heat up. To check if it's ready, place your hand about 4 inches above the grill and try counting to four. If you can't get to 3 before feeling the heat, it's ready.
- Reduce the heat to medium and place the ribs on the high rack, or you can use indirect heat by turning off one burner or pushing coals to one side and placing the meat on the opposite side.
- Carefully watch the sauce on the ribs. When it starts to look like it's drying out, baste the ribs. Usually about once every 15 minutes.
- Turn the ribs over after every basting
- When the meat has reduced off the bone about 1/4 inch, baste one last time and remove the meat from the grill. Let the ribs sit for 5 to 10 minutes under loose foil, then serve.

1/4 bottle of red/white wine for 2 steaks (I use Naked Grape

Directions:
I usually make a big batch as usually I have 4 or more fordinner.chop and saute onions and garlic until they (onions) are
almost clear .
Add wine and reduce (if you have a big batch you may have to
use a small sauce pan)
Place steaks in a container with a lid, place onions/garlic

shake on RnB Tuscan Spices, Usually when I have 6-8 steaks, I
use the a whole bottle. Pour wine over steaks and mixture.
Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour or more (i like marinate for
at least 2-3hrs). Depending on how long you leave it for
marinate 1/2 way through flip steaks and place
onions/garlic/spice mixture on other side. Bbq and use
marinate to baste or cook marinate for a sauce (make sure
cook long or hot enough to kill any possible bacteria) I

Vegan Rice Pudding
This is a wonderful recipe. So creamy and devine! I just made
it and my house smells like coconut and cardammon
3 cups cooked rice (I happened to have white basmati, but
brown rice is equally good)
3 cups milk of choice. (I made a mix of coconut milk and soy milk)
1/3 cup of cane sugar (you can add more if you want it sweeter)
1/3 cup raisins (optional
1 tsp vanilla
3/4 tsp cardammon
Directions:
Put all ingredients in a pot and boil gently for 10-15
minutes, or until the consistency is thick. It will get
thicker as it refrigerates
You can serve it warm (or cold) with whipped cream, if so
desired
Combine all ingredients in food processor. Cover and chill.
