Bourbon and Blues. Baby Back Ribs and a sampler of Blues on Suppertime
Yum it's suppertime! This week we are listening to the blues and drinking and eating bourbon. Here is recipe for a bourbon bbq sauce, a sweet and spicey rub, and a method for cooking ribs over the bbq real quick! I used 2 racks of ribs from PG Meat people Homesteaders Meats. They were super!
Here is the saucy recipe for a bourbon bbq sauce to slather over your baby back pork ribbers:
1 onion, minced
3 cloves of garlic, minced
2 thai chilis or whatever hot things you got, minced
1/4 butter
1/2 cup ketchup
1tbs Worcesterchire sauce
1 tbs soy sauce
2 tbs brown sugar
1/4 vinegar
1/2 tsp cumin
1/2 tsp dry ginger
Dry rub for ribs:
1 cup brown sugar
2 tbs paprika
1tbsp chili powder
1tsp cumin
salt and pepper
For the bbq sauce:
- start to carmelize the onion and garlic in the butter over lowish medium heat
- raise to medium heat, add your bourbon!
- let that bubble for about 5 minutes
- add remaining ingredients and let simmer for about 10 minutes. If it's gettin real thick, add a little more water
Dry rub:
- mix all ingredients in a bowl
To Cook the Ribs on BBQ in Short amount of time (45 minutes):
- liberally dress your ribs in the dry rub
- wrap in tin foil with some chunks of onion and apples and butter
- place on medium high bbq ( 350ish degrees)
- After 30 minutes, remove from tin foil
- Throw on the bbq and slather in bbq sauce, let them get all sticky and coated for about 10 minutes
- save some sauce for dippin!

Comet Catalina To Buzz The Planet - Jan 2016
There is a new comet in the early morning sky that can be seen before dawn. Comet 2013 US10 (Catalina) has travelled an estimated one million years from the distant Oort Cloud and will pass the one and only time through our solar system. Closest approach to Earth is on January 12, 2016. Once it’s gone it will never return. It should be a naked eye object towards the end of December as seen from dark locations and away from light pollution. Binoculars and even better, a telescope will show the green glow of the comet’s nucleus.
There is a finder chart on Gary Boyle's website: www.wondersofastronomy.com

The Rat Queen-- Goodbye to Rdio
Hey CFUR!Recently my favourite streaming service died. It was RDIO. it was the best, because it emphasized the social aspect of listening to music, namely, that the best music recommendations you're going to get are going to be from your friends. Alas and alack, they were right. unfortunately, RDIO remained sort of the audiophile's option, refusing to get into bed with labels and promote top forty artists, or give away subscriptions. I mean, streaming services are still a capitalist nightmare in terms of money paid to actual artists for their time and labour. but if you're a music fan and want to just listen to absolutely everything all the time forever, rdio was the best one. I have to sully my pretty white underthings in the filth-bath that is spotify now, but my ultimate satisfaction lies in the knowledge that hopefully this rdio death is a canary in the coal mine, and a more sustainable method of streaming music is developed. I would pay $100 a month for rdio to be sustainable for artists and the app company, but until that happens, I'll be trying spotify. like some sort of common layabout.
Anyways, here's my nightmare disaster show.
