I told you today was going to be chicken. It’s not going to be chicken. Mostly because we tried these ribs last night, and they were. . .majestic. There’s no other way to describe them. Which is actually kind of funny, because I bought the wrong type of meat, and it could have gone sideways quickly.
But it did not! And as such, I need to share them immediately.
This week’s book, What Katie Ate, is so pretty, you wouldn’t even need to use it for cooking. You could just leave it on your coffee table for people to look at. The author of this book also has a blog of the same name, and she’s out of Australia. Her photography is ridiculous. In a good way.
So here’s the thing. I bought Southern-style pork ribs instead of baby back pork ribs which apparently is NOT the same thing. I also used diet ginger ale because, Type 1 diabetic, but then realized it wouldn’t thicken properly without the sugar from the ginger ale, so I added some sugar. Much less than would have been in the ginger ale, I’d imagine.
Anyway, I’m going to give you the recipe the way I did it. It was amazing. It’s been designated the newest “best dinner I’ve ever made” by Dennis. It really was that good.
