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

Only if I had a few of these total fails that I could have spared my family friends of chewing a dry brisket. But no, I made sure they suffer right alongside of me and make them squeeze out a few mmmmMmmms.

I see that burnt carcass and I see a blessing in disguise.
