MOINK Balls

In this recipe, we use country style ribs. Although, technically speaking it's not really a rib. If the National Pork Board wants to call it a rib, then who am I to argue? A rib it is.

A country style rib is more like a pork chop than it is a rib. It is a great cut of meat and if treated like a rib, you're in store for a great barbecue rib experience.

Country style ribs are very meaty and perform quite well on the grill or smoker and is also an excellent choice for your favorite crock pot recipes.

In this Jack Rib recipe, we cook the ribs on the grill in a mixture of beer and BBQ sauce. Add whatever vegetables you can find and you end up with a complete meal.

Chicken Wings

Always a favorite!

Down with bland wings, I say! Turn up the flavor! With wing choices such as Orange-Chipotle, Bacon-Maple, Sesame-Soy or Slap yo' Granny, get ready for a wing ding!

Meatballs on a Stick

There have been reports of addiction

Be sure to make plenty of these meatballs, they tend to disappear pretty fast. They're great as is or try them with your favorite barbecue or other dipping sauce.
