Western Clothing, Fringe Is In


Fringe is EVERYWHERE this spring--but how can you pull it off without looking over the top?  If you are going to wear a statement boot like these Old Gringo Kally Boots , then pair them with a simple and feminine summer dress like this one. The sleek, simple design of the dress helps offset the vibrancy of the boots.  Keep accessories simple as well--a basic necklace and bag in complementary earth tones work well to complete this look without providing a busy distraction that could detract from the boots.  Keep out of the hot sun in a trendy and stylish fedora like this Charlie 1 Horse Tropical Itch Straw Hat.

GREAT BARBEQUE RECIPE FOR RIBS

Cowboy Trail Ribs








INGREDIENTS
(serves 4–6)

• 3-4 pounds spareribs
(beef or pork)
• 1 whole lemon
• 1 large onion
• 1 cup ketchup
• 1⁄ 2 cup Worcestershire sauce
• 1 teaspoon chili powder
• 2 dashes Tabasco sauce
• 2 cups water
• Salt to taste


DIRECTIONS
1. Cut up the ribs and place them in the pan, meaty side up. Place a slice of onion and a slice of lemon on each piece. Roast at 450° F. for 30 minutes.
2. Combine the remaining ingredients in the pot and bring to a boil.
3. Pour the sauce over the ribs and continue to bake at 350° F. until tender, about 45 minutes. Baste the ribs with sauce every 15 minutes. If the sauce gets too thick, add more water.

TAKE YOUR RIBS TO THE NEXT LEVEL;

A few more tips for maximum flavor;

Plan ahead. Put a dry rub on your ribs the night before so that it can absorb into the meat. This will boost flavor and make the meat even more tender.

Cook low and slow. Two-dozen spare ribs should take about four hours at 250 degrees. Burning the ribs or cooking them too quickly will make them tough.

Use indirect heat. Whether you’re smoking your ribs with hard woods such as oak or hickory, or using a charcoal grill, keep the meat away from direct flame.

Be careful not to overcook. The meat should give easily when you apply pressure, but not fall off the bone.

 Enjoy - let us know what you think
