Sader Night Short Ribs

[OferL]

This year we are having Sader at my my wife's brother's place. We were all asked to bting something. I was asked to bring smoked beef and suggested short ribs. My SIL immediatly approved. We are going to be 20-25 people. I bought 4 racks of about #5 each.

Trimmed and ready for dry brine

Once the fat cap was off I saw this graet marbeling

I love my butcher!
Tommorrow morning I'll start cooking. Get it all ready in the afternoon until tommorow night's celebration.

[Fooball]

Those are looking real good.

You're going to have a fight if all 25 people want ribs, which I think they will after seeing those.

There is going to be other food. A lot of food. But yes I expect this will be completely eaten. Survival of the fittest I say.

 

[OferL]

This gonna be good.

Thanks Marty!

Those are some awesome looking ribs! Your butcher is taking good care of you. I can't wait to see the finished spread.

 

[OferL]

After 6 hours they got to 190 and were probe tender. As if it was made if air... Rapped and put into a cooler. We will be eating in about 3 hours.

Damnit Boy!

 

[Bill-Chicago]

Looking mighty good!


So you celebrate Sader on Friday night there?


Over here, Sader by non Jewish traditions (maybe just Chicago Catholics, I'm not sure) was always a Thursday night thing because Good Friday is the last meat free/fasting observation day.


But I know the traditions in your country run much deeper by few thousand years, and your entire country takes a proverbial break all day long on Saturday the Sabbath.


Its only been 3 years, but it feels like too long since I have been back there.


Have a great and safe holiday season for you and your family!
