Accidental Potato Side

These were supposed to be herb potatoes to go with the ribs, but they came out a little close to mashed than solid slices.

Two russets peeled, quartered and sliced
olive oil and salt for boiling
Italian Seasoning
Adobo
2 Tablespoons margarine or butter

Boil potatoes until just about ready for mashing. (Generally for the amount of time it takes to make the ribs on the grill and bring them in the house) Drain and let sit in strainer while melting butter and seasonings in a skillet.
When butter starts to bubble, add potatoes and stir carefully to coat but not mash too much. Let fry on high heat for a few minutes and flip over. Continue cooking until heated through and serve to hungry Fruit.

Fruit's Favorite Ribs

Rack of meaty babyback pork ribs
1 sweet onion cut into eighths
1 tsp minced garlic
olive oil
adobo
montreal steak seasoning
about a 1/2 cup BBQ sauce
honey


First, bring onion and garlic to a boil in a large skillet. While water is boiling, cut rack into manageable pieces to fit in the skillet. Add ribs, reduce to simmer and cover for 45 minutes.

When ribs are ready, remove from skillet and preheat grill. Brush ribs with olive oil and season with adobo and montreal steak seasoning.

Place ribs on grill and baste with BBQ sauce. After about four minutes, turn and baste again. Continue until they're just about ready to remove. Pour honey over each side and grill each side for a few more minutes to glaze on.

Bring in and serve my happy Fruitpie!
