I think because they are addictive that is the reason they only sell them a couple of months out of the year. I have had more than two recently. For those who really can't give them up....

Keeping the sauce stirred and hot was a HUGE task and keeping enough "ribs" in the sauce was often a mystery to my staff as they were covered and they could not see them. I must say that by the time the END was near, I was thrilled to clean the pans, eat my last one and say good bye till next year. Even after all of this years hype, i have not eaten one. Thanks for the reminder to get it before it is too late!kathy ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17929923269309647681noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9089270273683004385.post-56761580167378943752010-11-28T12:15:07.000-08:002010-11-28T12:15:07.000-08:00Are you mad?

Recipe follows:<br /><br />FOR PORK <br />2 cups chicken stock<br />1 cup port wine <br />1 onion, coarsely chopped <br />2 carrots, coarsely chopped <br />2 ribs celery, coarsely chopped <br />1 tablespoon salt <br />1/4 cup liquid crab boil (at Von's in the fish/meat dept. on a rack)<br />1 pork butt roast, bone in (5 to 6 pounds) <br />1 tablespoon Hot-Stuff seasoning*<br /><br />In a large pot, bring chicken stock, wine, onion, carrots, celery, salt and crab boil to a boil. <br /><br />Liberally season pork roast with Hot-Stuff seasoning* and add to boiling liquid and vegetables. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer covered for 1 1/2 hours, or until fork-tender. Reserve cooking liquid and vegetables separately to use in sauce. <br /><br />Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Place roast on a rack and bake for 1 hour, or until meat pulls away easily with a fork. <br /><br />Set aside to cool for 15 to 20 minutes, then pull meat away from the bone with a fork and pull into bite-size pieces. Mix with 2 cups of the sauce before assembling sandwiches.<br /><br />Toast bread-of-choice for sandwiches (I like big, buttered sourdough slices).<br /><br />Reserve cooking juices into which you dip the sandwiches.<br /><br />PORK-BUTT SAUCE<br />2 cups reserved vegetables from pork <br />6 ounces reserved cooking liquid <br />2 teaspoons finely chopped garlic <br />2 teaspoons finely chopped ginger <br />2 cups ketchup <br />2 teaspoons cumin <br />1/2 cup brown sugar <br />2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce <br />6 tablespoons cider vinegar <br />1 tablespoon Crystal Hot Sauce (at Von's in hot sauce dept.) <br />Salt and pepper to taste <br /><br />In a blender, combine reserved vegetables, cooking liquid, garlic and ginger and process until smooth and the consistency of ketchup. Add remaining ingredients and process until thoroughly mixed. Season to taste with salt and pepper. <br /><br />Toss pulled pork with 2 cups of the sauce before assembling sandwiches. <br /><br />* HOT-STUFF SEASONING<br />2 1/2 tablespoons paprika <br />2 tablespoons salt <br />2 tablespoons garlic powder <br />1 tablespoon black pepper <br />1 tablespoon onion powder <br />1 tablespoon cayenne pepper <br />1 tablespoon dried oregano <br />1 tablespoon dried thyme <br /><br />Combine all ingredients thoroughly.

Dad loved them! Now, cholesterol "issues" prevent me from indulging, but I do think of McRibs fondly and associate them with happy holiday memories with my folks.

As you know the McRib was a promotional item and as such was only supposed to be available for a limited period. One of the reasons for the McRib not returning to the McDonald’s UK menu is because the McRib patty is made from ground pork and McDonald’s consider it important to our UK consumers to separate pork and beef on the grill. Unfortunately many of our restaurants do not have enough grill capacity to do this; therefore we are unable to make the McRib available here.

The only time I ever head to fast food is if I'm racing from one school to another and have a long haul on the road, and I'll stop at a McDonalds--I always get the same boring thing: a small cheeseburger, a small fries and an orange juice. I will have to branch out and try one (or maybe two) of these!suehttp://www.abrushwithcolor.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.com
