BBQ Baby Back ribs




This is a simple and tasty BBQ rib recipe. The recipe comes from Ina Garten, called "Foolproof Ribs". The name says it all, just follow the simple steps and you will have tender, lip smackin and finger lickin ribs! The trick to tender ribs is to pre-cook them before you grill them. This recipe has you bake them in the oven first and then finish on the grill. Ribs are great for company as you can bake them ahead of time and then store in the fridge until you are ready to grill.

Jamaican Farewell Coffee Topper


 I got this recipe a very long time ago from a co-worker and I have made it many times. It is a very creamy concoction that is kicked up with some Jamaican rum of course. Simply top your coffee with the topper and you have a very special coffee!! This is a great after dinner coffee or a special camping coffee in the morning or a dessert topper. Make a batch at Christmas time and give it away as gifts. I like to make a batch and then put away in the freezer and you have it at the ready. This recipe doubles well. The name Jamaican Farewell" is related to the song made famous by Harry Belafonte "Jamaica Farewell". So make some topper and put the song on and you might feel like you are on the Island!
Enjoy

BBQ Chicken Kebabs

 
  These kebabs are simply the best!! Moist and flavourful, everything a kebab should be. My family told me they were definitely "Blog Worthy". This recipe makes 7, 12 inch kebabs. I served them with stuffed potatoes and a tossed salad.
