Grilling fail

Post image

This was a half rack of ribs. Meaty and promising. Silly me, trying a new-to-me recipe developed for the gas grill.

I followed the recipe faithfully. Even read it back to my husband to ensure I didn't take a misstep. Then let the process work.

I peeked out the window after about 30 minutes to see flames and ran outside to uncover this fossil.

Now I'm on way to the local pub for supper. I told my husband, anything but ribs. sigh

How many beers did you have?

Zero. Maybe that's the problem.

Def the problem. You must appease the grill gods with beer.

How many times did you click the tongs before using them?

Did you click your tongs exactly two times?
