Happy 4th With B.B.Q. Port Ribs or B.B.Q. Chicken

Hello to all you foodies out there in webland am in the wonderful state of Texas for the 4th.  We are going to B.B.Q. some ribs and chicken, nothing better in the world to eat then that!  I love the fourth of July with the fireworks and celebrating this wonderful country called the USA.  It makes me remember and be thankful for our freedom and those who have died and fought for that freedom.  Both my parents fought in WWII.  They both loved this country as much as I do.  They believed in the American dream and I still believe in that as well.  I believe that our children were raised up in a better America then we were and I believe that our grandchildren will be brought up in a better America then we were.  I still believe in the American Dream and I still believe that as Americans we can pull ourselves up and grow some backbone and do what is best for all of us.  There are new citizens out there who still believe wholeheartedly in a great America and we should look to them like new babies brought into this world of ours to help get all of us on the right track to building and making the good old USA what it can be for us and for the world.   I wish us all a great deal of luck.  I hope you all are enjoying your 4th of July because I know that I will.  Now let's make some B.B.Q.

B.B.Q. Ribs, Pork or Beef or 1 5 Pound Chicken

3 to 4 pounds of Ribs

Salt & Pepper ribs to taste
Mix:

1/2 Cup Brown Sugar
1.5 tsp. Chile Powder
1.5 tsp. Onion Powder
1.5 tsp. Garlic Powder
1.5 tsp. crushed Red Peppers
1/2 tsp. Dry Mustard
1.5 tsp. ground Cumin

B.B.Q Sauce


1 Chopped Onion
5 Gloves Garlic chopped
1 stick Butter
1.5 Cups Catup
1/2 Cup Brown Sugar
1.5 tsp Worcestershire Sauce
1 tsp. perpared Mustard
1 tsp. Onion and Garlic Powder
2 tsp. Hot Sauce
1/2 Corn Syrup
Mix all the ingredents for the rub together and you may want to add some salt to that as well, like maybe a 1 teaspoon.  Anywho then rub the mix on the ribs after you salt and pepper them.  If you are doing chicken follow the same dircctions for the rub and sauce.  Then place the ribs in a preheated oven on about 350 covered with foil for about 1 to 1 3/4 hour.  The while they are cooking make your sauce.  Place butter in a pan and heat till melted, then add the onion and garlic, chopped.  Cook till clear.  Then add all the rest of the ingredients to the pot and cook till thick about 30 minutes.  After the ribs have cooked in the oven then check for tenderness, it should pull apart with a fork.  Then uncover the ribs and start basting with the sauce.  Let it cook about 15 minutes then sauce again and turn ribs and bast again.  Cook another 15 minutes and you are ready to eat.  If you are cooking chicken, clean it with papertowels and  just rub the chicken and place it in the oven at 350 degrees and cook for about 1 hour then start basting with the sauce and cook for about 10 mins and bast again and cook for another 10 mins or until done and its nice and brown on the outside.  Yum, Yum.  You may want to cover your bottom of the pans with foil, less clean up for you and more time to have fun!  Enjoy!

Anywho I hope you all enjoy this dish and write to me and let me know how you like it.  You could finish the ribs on the grill if you like to taste of the B.B.Q.   Please watch my TV show on the web by going to the aikenstandard.com, ASTV 95, "Cooking With Madjon and Friends".  Enjoy you family, friends and the 4th of July!  Fireworks Etc, Etc.  Happy trails to you until we meet again.  Eileen F. Hutson, Madjon.
