These incredibly tender, juicy bone-in short ribs are cooked low and slow in the oven and then finished on the grill where they are charred and basted with our sweet-and-spicy Terrapin Ridge Farms' Hot Pepper Bacon Grill & Wing Squeeze. Ask your butcher for bone-in english-cut short ribs. We like to buy them in 2- to 3-rib sections, but you can also use single rib pieces. Just start checking your ribs a little earlier as they will cook faster in the oven. Serve these lacquered ribs with your favorite barbecue sides like mac-and-cheese, coleslaw, pickles, and squishy rolls for mopping up the addictive sauce.
6 pounds bone-in, English-cut short ribs, sectioned into 2-to 3-rib pieces and excess fat removed
1 Tablespoon dry mustard
1 Tablespoon paprika
Kosher salt and pepper
¾ teaspoon cayenne pepper
Oil for the grill
In a small bowl, mix the spices with 1½ tablespoons of salt and 1 teaspoon of pepper. Generously season the ribs all over with spice rub. Let sit at room temperature for 1 hour.
Preheat the oven to 300°F.
Transfer the ribs to a 9-by-13-inch baking dish meat side up—they should fit snugly.
Cover tightly with aluminum foil and bake until tender but not falling apart, 2 to 3 hours. Keep covered with foil and let rest for at least 1 hour.
At this point, the ribs can be refrigerated if you’re making them in advance. (See the make ahead note below).
Heat a grill to HIGH (450°F) and oil the grate.
Grill the short ribs, basting with the Hot Pepper Bacon Grill and Wing Sauce and turning frequently, until lacquered and charred in places and heated through, 7 to 10 minutes.
Transfer to a cutting board and let rest for at least 10 minutes. Cut between the ribs to separate.
Cut between the ribs to separate. Transfer to a platter and serve with any remaining sauce, mac-and-cheese, coleslaw, rolls, and pickles, if desired.
MAKE AHEAD: Ribs can be baked up to 3 days in advance. Cold ribs hold together better on the grill, just let sit at room temperature 1 hour before grilling.
*can also use beef stock (instead of juices from baking) with Hot Pepper Bacon Grill & Wing Squeeze*

INGREDIENTS:
11⁄2 boneless lamb shoulder, cut into 1-inch pieces
1⁄3 cup Terrapin Ridge Farms Coconut-Curry Aioli, plus more for drizzling
salt and pepper
Canola oil, for greasing
1 large red onion, cut into 8 wedges through the root
4 naan or pita
Sliced tomatoes, Persian cucumber, and tender green herbs, such as mint, dill and parsley, for serving
DIRECTIONS
In a large resealable plastic bag, coat the lamb with the 1⁄3 cup of aioli. Season with salt and pepper. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours and up to overnight. Let sit at room temperature for 30 minutes before cooking.
If using wooden skewers, submerge them in water in a large baking dish. Let soak for at least 1 hour; drain. Thread the lamb onto 6 to 8 skewers, giving your meat a little space so it browns evenly.
Preheat a grill to medium-high (350-400°F), indirect cooking (for a charcoal grill, bank coals on one side of grill; for a gas grill, leave one or two burners off) and oil the grate. Grill the skewers over direct heat, turning every minute or so, until browned and beginning to char in spots, about 4 minutes. Move to the cooler side of the grill and continue to grill until the lamb is medium-rare within, about 4 minutes more. Meanwhile, grill the red onion, turning occasionally, until tender and nicely charred, about 10 minutes. Transfer the lamb skewers and red onion to a platter and cover with foil. Grill the naan until beginning to char and is soft and pliable, 2 to 3 minutes.
Arrange the skewers, naan, and red onion on a large platter. Drizzle the lamb with more Coconut-Curry Aioli.
Add sliced tomato, Persian cucumber, herbs, and lemon wedges to the platter. Season the tomatoes and cucumbers with salt and pepper. Serve right away, letting people assemble their own wraps.
