Ted’s Magic Ribs

I had some time to do a little cooking this past weekend and decided to make a video for my magic ribs. Unfortunately I got so excited that I forgot to film a proper ending… but I can assure you that these things are fall off the bone pork-awesomeness.

Easiest directions ever:

  1. Take your ribs and cover them with olive oil, lots of fresh garlic and BBQ dry rub
  2. Place ribs in a pan with 1/4 inch of chardonnay in the bottom
  3. Cover with tin foil
  4. Cook in oven for 3 hrs at 350 degrees.
  5. Remove and coat ribs with BBQ sauce.
  6. Grill to perfection.
  7. Drop me a line and let me know what you think.

How to Make Ted’s Magic Chili

I decided to make Ted’s Magic Turkey Chili Surprise today for a Superbowl party at my friends house. I realize that I shared the recipe on this blog before, but I thought a video may better demonstrate just how easy and fast it is to make chili. For those of you out there who are afraid to cook take a look at this video, it could not be easier. I am by no means a chef, but even I can make this stuff.

I decided to take a little of each of these recipes and come up with my own recipe. My recipe includes two of my favorite ingredients – beer and easy. This recipe is designed for a crockpot, it takes about 15 minutes to prepare and 4 hours to cook.
