Texas Beef Ribs in Tomato-Jalepeno Sauce

Wow!  This recipie rocks!  I picked up beef rack ribs (not short ribs) from my favorite butcher: Royal Beef on the Danforth.  A giant rack and a half was 20 bucks and can feed a small army!  Tiffany and Christina acted as willing gineau pigs for the new dish and they loved it!  The total cooking time is about 2 hours, a quick sear, dropped into a delicious tomato-jalepeno sauce, covered and cooked for an hour, then uncovered and cooked for another hour.  This is a must have recipie.  I can't wait to make it again.

Carrot Cake with Cream Cheese Frosting

Carrot Cake is absolutely one of my favorite cakes!  I've never made it before, let alone on the grill!
This is one killer recipie.  When done on the grill, the edges get a bit crispy and there is a smokey flavour infused that you just can't get in the oven.  I needed to cook this at an even 350F.  I preheated the grill and it went to 400F.  In a matter of less than a minute I was able to dial in the Weber to an even 350.  The control of a great grill ensures your results to be perfect, eliminating any guesswork alltogether.  There are many great desert to come so stay tuned!

Prime Rib with Garlic and Blue Cheese Sauce

This is a great way to do a prime rib.  There's basil, rosemary, garlic and dijon mustard in the coating and cooks for approx 11/2 hours for a 6 lb roast. Roasted potoatoes and carrots with garlic, cumin and curry finish off the country style meal.  The heavy cream and crumbled blue cheese in the sauce is decadent.  Really a delicious comfort food dinner.
