Need Cooking Help *AGAIN*

[avenlee]

Ok, I'm making pork spare ribs today and I've got a great recipe to bake them. The recipe calls for white wine vinegar. I thought for sure I had some but I have red wine vinegar . Is there a big difference between the two? Or, I do have cooking 'white' wine and regular vinegar. I thought I could even mix those two togther? Any thoughts?

I can't make it out the store this morning to run out and get some. The ribs have been sitting overnight in the refrigerator with a salt, pepper and red pepper flake rub. And I need to start baking them at 1:00 for them to get on the table by 4:00 or so (Tony's in bed by 6:00 pm or so to go to work for 3:00 am)

I think the red wine vinegar would work just fine.

Thanks, I'm going to go with the red wine vinegar. It can't be that much different ... maybe even better tasting, lol I really don't have a choice anyway.

I think it will be awesome with pork.

Well, the ribs came out AWESOME! The pork was falling off the bone. The red wine vinegar was just fine. I also fried up red and green peppers, baby bella mushrooms, onion and garlic in extra virgin olive oil and then added shredded potato and mixed it all together. It was perfect and Tony is already in bed with a full stomach, lol.

A co-worker of mine shared a neat tip with me just yesterday about cooking ribs. I haven't tried it yet, but you can bet I will the next time. He said to cook the ribs and then place them in a cooler (no ice). Seal the cooler with some tape and let sit for 1 hour. They supposedly will fall right off of the bone. It is like pressure cooking them I guess, as the heat and moisture are sealed in to continue a low-heat cooking.

Thanks all, it was yummmmmmy. And moo, that is an interesting way of preparing ribs., lol There are so many ways to prepare ribs out there, but if you don't get it right, they can be awful tough and fatty.
