Chile Mac...with a side of beef ribs

cowgirl · Jul 26, 2016

Using up the last of the Hatch chiles in the freezer.

Slathered the beef ribs with bacon drippings, then seasoned with coarse salt and cracked black pepper. Into the drum with hickory.

Cooked onions and garlic in bacon drippings and butter, til tender...then made a basic white sauce. Flour, milk and seasonings. Also added provolone and mozzarella for the gooey factor.

Nothing fancy. I like chile mac and could probably make a meal out of it by itself.

Thanks for looking!

I've got a long to-do list going but I really want that. My wife probably wouldn't be crazy about it but I'm going to have to try it anyway.

Another WOW cook. That looks delicious!

I gotta check out these Hatch chiles - they're gonna be all around here in a few weeks apparently - just in time for the SoCal Bash in fact! That mac n cheese would be a great side. And beef ribs, yeah...:bounce:

Great looking meal there Jeanie - and if you ain't doing anything Labor Day weekend, come join us - and there'll be a lot of us!

I've been keeping an eye on the bash thread. Looks like it's going to be fun.
Right now, it looks like I'm not going to get to be there...unless something changes. :sad:
