My wife really wanted me to make BBQ ribs, I purchased this Dutch oven as a vessel to cook them in because you know happy wife, happy life. I hesitated to make the ribs, I thought my wife was on a diet so I waited for her to request them. I kept putting off making the ribs for several months because there was some continued confusion on my part, regarding my wife being on a diet. When my wife appeared to be back on her daily meal plan of burgers, fries, and ice cream, I thought I would give it a go and make my famous bbq ribs. After two days of rubbing, marinating, basting and a low and slow smoke, my ribs were perfection. The best that I have ever made, I couldn't wait to share them with my family. Once dinner time arrived, I waited with bated breath for my family to join me at the dinner table. I couldn't contain my enthusiasm; I knew that my wife and my offspring would cheer for me and congratulate me on my miraculous and magnificent culinary creations. Not only would the ribs serve as the star of the show that night, homemade mac and cheese, corn on the cob, Asian cole slaw, and corn bread made from scratch supported the show stopping selection that would be dinner. My wife walked into the kitchen, looked at the table, looked at me, and once again looked at the table. She paused and then began to barrage me with an obscenity laced tyraid about how I disrespect her and don't support her efforts. She said I was sabotaging her and prevent her from losing weight and getting healthy. Unbenounced to me, my sons had decided earlier that very day, that they would be following a vegan diet. They made their announcement while strolling into the kitchen only to refuse to eat my BBQ dinner. They then stated that I am a horrible father for serving them animal meat and products. They gave my BBQ diner a hard pass and asked for my debit card so they could get French fries since that was vegan. I was so angry at that point, I got a garbage bag and threw all of the food and the Dutch oven into It. I can at least say, from what I could tell, that the Dutch oven did a great job cooking my ribs.
