Some years ago, on PBS a man from Lousiana (sp?) by the title name had a
recipe for ribs in a oven bag. I used to have the recipe but have since
lost it. I think he used pork but I'm gonna use beef and hopefully
someone here has or remembers how he made 'em.

If you have made 'em have you tried cooking them in either a microwave
or a toaster oven?

Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I suspect you're referring to Justin Wilson, who cooked everything
from cows to cornbread in oven bags. I recall he was a devout
advocate of white wine in his recipes ....while diverting equal
amounts to himself for medicinal purposes. A google search will
reveal all. I gar-on-tee it!

I suspect you're right.. I was a little surprised to discover Justin was 89
years old when he died. Could have fooled me. He acted like a young
whipper-snapper of 75

He was on my radio program when he was 83 and freshly turned out of his
house. He said his wife had caught him with another woman. <LOL> He told
that story on the air. He brought his "assistant" - a largish-in-parts,
gloriously robust woman with stratospheric hair. We got the teeniest bit
drunkie on the air. I'm told I had a wonderful time.

Ah, yes! I remember you talking about that one. The good ol' "lemonade"
incident LOL Lynchburg Lemonade, I guess. He was a fun guy. Should have
lived to blow his nose over many more a dish as far as I'm concerned. After
all, I wasn't eating what he was cooking. <G>

Thanks for the information. It is interesting about his drinking. I
just thought that was part of his character ...like Julia Child. Now
Julia , I did think was crocked most of the time. It didn't dawn on me
until years later that she might of had a speech problem. I'm still not
sure.

Who was the little Italian fellow that had a show on either TLC or
Discovery Channel that usually made glazed bananas for dessert?

I remember a lot of 'em from the old days, including the Galloping
Gourmet. I just don't seem to remember their names. My mom learned how
to make chinese food from a woman....back in the '50s-'70s,I think. The
woman was Chinese.


Again Thanks everyone for the information and recipe.
