The Perfect Ribs



Barbecue is something that many people enjoy as an activity in their free time. There are many recipes for many types of meets out there. There are also many different styles of cooking that involve different elements and substrate during the cooking process, different types of barbecues, and different recipes throughout the cooking process. Within those differences are a variety of ingredients and components of barbecue that have delighted many fans over the years. Cooking pork is an affair that usually involves smoking at a low temperature for a long amount of time. This type of cooking apparatus usually involves a device known as a smoker.

A smoker is designed to cook meat with the heat and flavoring of the smoke that comes from burning logs or charcoal. This specialized device does not expose the meat to direct heat, it is more indirect than anything. That is exactly how pork spare ribs are cooked by some of the best in the business. They apply a seasoning that consist of either a dry rub mixture, brining or marinating ribs so they are flavorful. Pork seems to match up well with apple flavorings which tends to sway barbecue cooks into using apple as the wood fuel and as an elements in flavoring. From there, it is truly all about cooking low in temperature at a slow pace. This allows the pork ribs to develop an outer crispness while remaining juicy inside. With the right seasoning, the meat can be cooked to a temperature and moisture content that literally has it falling off of the bone. The key is tenderness and that is exactly what amateur cook and barbecue fan Brad Lomas tries to integrate whenever he is cooking the perfect ribs.

Tebow Time



Tim Tebow is a controversial quarterback that plays in the National Football League. He is a professional that attracted a lot of attention when he came out of college. Part of this reason is that he was drafted in the first round of the NFL draft and there were many people who felt that he was undeserving of this high of a selection. Others felt that he had proven that he was a great quarterback during his college years. He had won championships and had also won the Heisman Trophy, which is college football’s highest individual award. He played for an extremely short amount of time for the Denver Broncos. When he got his chance to start, his performance was one which was a mixed spectacle of will and game strategy which produced an unexpected amount of wins for the team. The team went on to win a first round game in the playoffs, but ultimately lost to the New England Patriots in Boston. The next off-season, he was released by the team when they signed free-agent and NFL legend Peyton Manning to be the new quarterback.

Tebow ended up playing for the Jets, then the Patriots and spent some time in an unremarkable period of his career. Brad Lomas is a big fan of the Philadelphia Eagles, who have picked up this exciting and controversial player as a backup option. He has spent two years away from the game during which he has worked on his fundamental skills off the field. Many have great hopes that he can make the team and maybe show some of his magic at some point down the line.
