What I did with leftover ribs!

Had about 3/4 rack of ribs left over and I thought today what could I do with the leftovers. Off goes the light! Smoked ribs over braised spinach on top of creamy grits! Ribs-n-Grits!
Grits cooked with milk and lots of butter. Super creamy and silky.
Cooked spinach with canola oil/butter w/garlic slivers and red pepper flake. Hit at the end with white wine vinegar.
Pulled ribs off the bone and re-heated in a pan with more sauce and butter.
Assembled consisted of grits, spinach, and rib meat. Drizzle of some sauce and green onion as garnish.
So, I couldn't pick a favorite, so I'll post my four favorite pictures.

4 - If I had to pick one, it would be this one.
Thanks for taking a look!

Looks like the cook of an executive chef, great presentation and idea for leftovers!“There are three rules that I live by: never get less than twelve hours sleep; never play cards with a guy who has the same first name as a city; and never get involved with a woman with a tattoo of a dagger on her body.”

Dude if you don't figure out a way to do some variation on this at the Butt Blast, I might have to delete all of your posts on Facebook."I've made a note never to piss you two off." - Stike

I think you could probably offer up "bites" of this concoction (I will be happy to test a large portion before you offer it to the masses).tarheelmatt said:

That looks incredible, hope it tasted as awesome as it looks. Where do you get these leftover ribs you speak off?

You know I love you Mattie (not your lame team). Piney recruited me but you know you can always count on a wildcat. We need to reconnoiter at some point. This has grown. It's gonna be bigger, despite John's egg. Want you to know we're in brother. Assume Michael and Jason feel similarly despite the rivalry. Go Cats.tarheelmatt said:
