Holy moly, thanks Saveur! (Plus, exciting things to come!)
Wow. Just wow. (That’s us! On Saveur’s website!) Let me get a little mushy. Just a little. Just for a minute. It’s always so nice when someone tells me that they like The Hungry Mouse. This site has been a labor of love for The Angry Chef and I for the last year or so. [...]
Chili Garlic Beef Ribs
This recipe is so easy, it’s kind of like cheating. I’m OK with that, though. (I’m all for fancy sauces and complicated meals. But there’s a definite time and a place for dishes like this.) It takes no time to slap together—then your oven does all the hard work.
Smokey Black Pepper Beef Ribs
These ribs get a ton of deep, pepper-y flavor from freshly cracked black pepper—and a fair amount of heat from ground chipotle chili. They also get a double dose of smoke from a generous amount of ground chipotle and smoked paprika. Smokey Black Pepper Beef Ribs 4 lbs. beef back ribs (about 8 ribs) 2 [...]
Rib of the Week: The Angry Chef’s Maple-Asian Fusion Pork Ribs
I’ve said it before: My husband can work absolute magic with the barbecue. When he made these mouthwatering pork loin chops for us the other night, I asked him if he could do something similar with pork spare ribs—inside, in the oven. (You know how we love ribs at The Mouse House.) He kindly obliged, [...]
Rib of the Week: Fig & Ginger Glazed Pork Ribs
You all know that I’m one of those folks who loves pork and fruit together. Now, you have to like figgy-flavored things for this one to work. But man, if you do…the combination is absolutely heavenly. These ribs get the perfect amount of earthy sweetness from fig preserves. A heaping dose of ginger gives them [...]
Rib of the Week: Fiery Red Currant Ribs
I love hot and spicy food. (You know, the kind that makes your nose sweat just the tiniest bit?) Wasabi. Chili peppers. Lots of ginger. You name it, chances are it’s on my list. These ribs combine two types of heat with red currant jelly. The sugar in the jelly adds just the right amount [...]
Rib of the Week: Cherry-Port Glazed Ribs Studded with Bacon
OK. I cook ribs so often that I’ve decided to make it official. Welcome to The Hungry Mouse’s Rib of the Week feature. I’ve gone back and re-tagged my other rib recipes, so they’re all in one place. Ribs: not just for the barbecue A lot of folks I know love ribs, but only remember [...]
Rib of the Week: Aleppo Chili Pork Ribs with Peach and Lime
I’m starting to realize that we eat a lot of ribs at the Mouse House. (I see a “Rib-of-the-Week Feature” in my future…) I’m OK with this for a few reasons. They’re easy to make. They taste great. They’re hearty and filling. And if you’re an unapologetic carnivore, it’s just downright fun to gnaw meat [...]
Rib of the Week: Candied Maple Sesame Ribs
I’ll say it again: I swear we eat more than meat. The ribs I made the other night got me thinking about other seasonal, autumn-y things I could do with beef spare ribs. These are a really interesting first course for a harvest-season dinner. Because they’re sweet, I think they’d be overpowering as the main [...]
Rib of the Week: Garlic and Rosemary Roasted Beef Ribs
I’m not sure if this happens to other people, but sometimes I really crave a rib roast. You heard me right. A standing beef rib roast, as in that giant hunk of roasted beast that you serve around the holidays. One worthy of Cindy Loo Who. It happened to me last night. Luckily, I happened [...]
