  Bonus Recipes!

  Urban Cowboy Buffalo Wings

  Approx. 2 lbs of chicken wings (12 wings)

  3 Tbsp butter

  1 Tbsp Paprika

  ½ tsp cayenne pepper

  4 Tbsp Hot sauce (bottled variety of your choice)

  ¼ tsp black pepper

  Cut the wings at the joint. (Cut off the wing tips first and discard) Melt butter and combine all other ingredients to make a sauce. Thoroughly coat wings in sauce. Broil for twenty minutes - ten minutes on each side, or until chicken is cooked and meat is no longer pink. Brush the tops of wings with more sauce before serving. (Do not use sauce that has touched the raw chicken.) Serve with blue cheese dressing, sour cream, or ranch dipping sauce.

  Urban Cowboy Garlic Ribs

  Approx 4 lbs of pork ribs, cut into bite size portions

  1 cup soya sauce

  3 tsp garlic powder

  1 tsp onion powder

  ¼ tsp black pepper

  Vegetable oil for frying (2 to 4 cups if using a pan)

  2 cups flour

  Garlic salt in a shaker

  Combine soya sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, and pepper. Marinate ribs in this mixture for at least half an hour. Drain off excess marinade and thoroughly coat individual pieces in flour. Deep fry in the heated oil, or use a deep fat fryer, until they are crispy and brown. Shake another sprinkling of garlic powder on top once they are cooked.

  Lester’s Homemade Beef Burgers

  2 lbs lean ground beef

  1 egg

  ½ cup oatmeal

  Salt and pepper to taste

  Mix all ingredients together and form into balls. Press each ball into a patty, smoothing the edges to make them uniform. Barbeque on a gas or briquette grill covered with tin foil. (The foil keeps the fresh meat from sticking.) Once the burgers have formed a crust, they may be transferred directly onto the grill if desired. Once cooked, serve on a bun and top with your favorite garnish and condiments.

  Double Decker Pastrami Sandwich

  1 lb thinly sliced beef pastrami, warmed

  6 slices rye or whole wheat bread

  4 slices havarti cheese

  Prepared sweet hot mustard

  mayonnaise

  Thinly sliced sweet onion

  2 – 4 dill pickles (Optional)

  Warm pastrami on grill or in microwave. Lightly toast and butter bread. Spread a layer of sweet hot mustard on four of the bread slices and mayonnaise on the other two. Arrange equal portions of pastrami on the slices with mustard, topping with havarti cheese and one or two rings of onion. Stack 2 and use the mayo covered bread as a lid. Garnish with pickles. Makes two sandwiches.
