Saturday night: Ribs, Beans and COBBLER

Had a neighbor couple over last night, I did ribs, baked beans and a cobbler (thanks @bweekes!) for dessert.  Sat was a busy day, so I did a lot of prep the night before. Rubbed the ribs and let them rest overnight in the fridge, also mixed and measured the ingredients for the cobbler.  Ribs went on the grill at 5:00 at 350 for a 7:00 finish.  Sauced them with Montgomery's rib sauce for the last 15.  Beans were Bush's Grillin Beans to which I added bacon, sauteed onion, and a shot of whiskey (you should try it!). They went on for the last 40 minutes of the rib cook.

About the Cobbler.  OMG, it was one of the best things I ever ate.  I used the recipe in @ bweekes post except I used a large can of sliced peaches and about 2 cups of fresh blueberries.  Zested a lemon with the microplane, then squeezed in the juice.  Baked in my uncovered 5 qt Lodge DO for about an hour at 375,  topped the finished product with a little turbinado sugar.  Served it with french vanilla ice cream. The layers of flavor in this were incredible:  sweet, tart, salt, plus crust plus fruit plus warm plus cold.  it was over the top good.  I have two servings left to enjoy today (along with some of the ribs).

    Looks awesome! Congrats on a great cook. I'm with you - the cobbler is the show stopper. I'm loving the DO right now! I should have mentioned, I also added blueberries to mine, so our cooks were actually quite similar.

    I'm also thinking.,, in the peach mixture, I might add a bit of dark rum next time. Shouldn't hurt the consistency if I let it reduce enough. Look at me - only cooked one cobbler and getting adventurous already!

    I guess it's a club now.  Welcome!  I am eating leftovers as I type this.  Great the day after too.

    What size skillet is that?
