Beef Tenders

12 servings

6 pounds beef tip roasts, or some type of beef you would marinate ask the butcher

Cut beef into cubes large enough so they will not fall through your grill. Marinate meat in salad dressing for 4 to 5 hours, turning periodically. Sprinkle with coarse black pepper. Then grill on barbecue grill to desired doneness. This will melt in your mouth.
I have marinated the meat overnight also.

1/2 cup cold water
3 packages Knox Unflavored Gelatine
4 cups flat diet cola
1 package unsweetened Black Cherry Kool Aid
1 tablespoon liquid Splenda
8 ounces cream cheese
1/2 cup fresh grated coconut
1/2 cup celery, chopped
1/2 cup chopped pecans

Soften gelatin in cold water for about 2 min. I do this in a glass measuring cup. Now set the whole cup in the microwave and cook on high for 1 1/2 min. Stir well and check to see if you can see through it. If not microwave for a few more seconds. pour this into a large bowl.
Add the flat cola, sweetener, and kool aid. Stir until there is no fizz at all. Take 1 cup of this liquid mixture and place it in a blender with 8 oz. cream cheese and whip until the cheese is completely blended. Pour the cream cheese liquid back into the bowl with the rest of the mixture. Stir to blend. Place in the refrigerator and watch for the beginning signs of setting up. Stir it occasionally to keep the cream cheese blended. When the mixture begins to thicken add the pecans, coconut, and celery. It should be thick enough to suspend the chopped stuff. Refrigerate until well set.

Memphis-Style Ribs

6 servings

Ingredients for the ribs and the rub:
6 to 4 pounds pork ribs, (4 to 6 pounds baby back ribs or 6 to 8 pounds spareribs)
1 1/2 tablespoons paprika
1 1/2 tablespoons freshly ground black pepper
1 1/2 tablespoons brown sugar, firmly packed
1 1/2 tablespoons salt
Ingredients for the mop sauce; (optional):
2 cups cider vinegar
1/2 cup yellow mustard, (ball-park)
2 teaspoons salt

Directions1. Remove the thin, papery skin from the back of each rack of ribs by pulling it off in a sheet with your fingers, using the corner of a kitchen towel to gain a secure grip, or with pliers. Combine the ingredients for the rub in a small bowl and whisk to mix. Rub two thirds of this mixture over the ribs on both sides, then transfer the ribs to a roasting pan. Cover and let marinate, in the refrigerator, 4 to 8 hours.

2. Set up the grill for indirect grilling, placing a large drip pan in the center. If using a charcoal grill, preheat it to medium. If using a gas grill, place the wood chips in the smoker box and preheat the grill to high; when smoke appears, reduce the heat to medium.

3. When ready to cook, if using charcoal, toss half the wood chips on the coals. Oil the grill grate. Arrange the ribs on the hot grate over the drip pan. Cover the grill and smoke cook the ribs for 1 hour.

4. Meanwhile, prepare the mop sauce( if using). Mix together the mustard vinegar, and salt in a bowl and set aside.

5. When the ribs have cooked for an hour, uncover the grill and brush the ribs with the mop sauce (if using). If using a charcoal grill, toss the remaining wood chips on the fire. Continue cooking the ribs until tender and
almost done, 1/2 to 1 hour longer for spareribs. If using charcoal, after 1 hour add 10 to 12 fresh coals per side to the grill. The ribs are done when the meat is very tender and it has shrunk back from the ends of the bones. Fifteen minutes before the end, season the ribs with the remaining rub, sprinkling it on.

6. To serve, cut the racks in half, or for a plate-burying effect, just leave them whole.
