Ribs and such

For some reason, I like the Pioneer Woman's recipes.  I saw this picture and recipe this morning and I knew I wanted to make this today or tomorrow. I have a problem with ribs, so I am reading up on different, easy, ways to make this work.  She puts the ribs in a crock pot with onions and seasonings and cooks them on low for 8 hours, pours off the liquid they have caused and THEN adds the sauce.  It stays with the ribs while they cook a bit longer. Use any kind of sauce you like, of course, she makes her own simple sauce.  I have been trying different recipes for sauce and I like one.  I also like some of the bottled kind that you buy.  We now have a street outdoor rib guy who does ribs all day long on Morse Rd.  Sometime I will try his, but for now, I will be using PW's way.

We have been treated to the official wedding pictures from Matt and Stacy's wedding.  They are on my facebook.  Also, I do not use AOL anymore so my new one is dorislechler77@gmail.com.  It's not really new, I just have been lazy about changing it here because so much spam comes along with the change and it has been nice not to have it for awhile.

In my surfing, I also ran on to a site called Cooking Habit.  She had a couple of recipes I want to try.

Italian beef/olives
Keep this in the refrigerator for two or more days before serving.  It will have an enhanced flavor.
2 1/2 pounds of cubed chuck roast
olive oil
1/2 cup green olives
2 ounce can anchovies, drained
1/2 cup chopped onions
zest of one orange and one lemon
1 tsp. tom. paste
oregano
2 tablespoons flour
1/2 cup red wine
1/2 beef broth
Place cubed beef in crock pot.  Place the rest of the ingredients in a blender or food processor and blend.  Pour this sauce over the beef.  Cook 10 hours.  Place in fridge for 2 or more days before serving.  Serve over parmesan noodles, rice or any other pasta after you have reheated it on low for 4 hours in the crockpot.

Since we entertain so much, this sounds like it will work for me.
