Alton Brown's Oven Ribs..sort of



I didn't use any marinades that had "high fructose corn syrup" in them. Why we have not banned that crap in the USA, I'll never know. They have banned it in Europe! The ribs were great...I plopped the ribs down on a cookie sheet..on top of a (canola) oiled foil sheet. I added several marinades from the frig which did not contain HFCS. I put more foil on the top and steamed at low temp (275) for 3 hours. I then drained the marinade off, and returned the meat into the oven on broil...for about 8 minutes each slab. I "degreased" the marinade and put it in a pot to simmer on the stove. Right before I broiled the meat, I mopped it with the marinade.
It was sublime!

That high fructose corn syrup is why soda inna USA tastes so much crappier than elsewhere. Same goes for alla stuff with that crap in it. Grrrrrrr

We can't ban it as long as the Powers That Be continue to make too much money off of it. "For the good of the people" is all too often ignored in this country, and as long as we continue to enable it with our votes, why would it end? It's like: "Why do they call it the minimum wage? Because if they could pay less, they would!"

Of course, I'm not cynical or anything...
