Amy,
Funny you mention that about John and the ribs. You and I talked about BBQ in the past (remember the new smoker the kids got me last year, well I fianlly got it together this spring and got to enjoy it!!). I was really worried about ribs, because most meats are still a challenge, but the ribs, if done correctly have enough fat in them to make them "smooth & easy" going down. I'm able to handle some spice at this point as well so while the taste is still limited it's a high light!! It's great to have some experts aboard, maybe we will learn some tips and tricks.
So I agree, enjoy that Piggy!! Pork fat rules for sure!!!
