Ah yes,this is the infamous boiled-for-three-or-four-hours ribs,the crapdogs,
the embellished can of pork and beans, and the incorrect buttermilk puddle
recipe show. Let us continue, shall we?

I understand parboiling ribs, but for three to four hours in beef broth?
When she retrieved the ribs, they looked like soggy shoeleather and where
disengrating while she tried to put them on the grill. There is a good
falling of the bone and a bad falling of the bone. You can't camflague crap
by slatheringing on the bbq sauce. And oh yes, "be sure to baste the bones,
because everybody likes to suck on those!" Umm, yeah.

And her Beer salmon recipe that we've never seen before? My dad does the same
exact thing save the brown sugar. So that's another case for the patent
police.

She needs to a bit of homework before she claims to have invented those
hamburger things......A Sunset BBQ cookbook from the 60's has a recipe
these. Here's what the crapdogs look like:

I also like how the buttermilk pie was almost like homemade, except for the
"shortcut of the chocolate chips". I guess store-bought crust, which I've
used in a pinch, doesn't count as semi-homemade? I believe I recall
FoodNetwork had to recall this one because it was totall screwed up.
