Welcome

We are a retired American couple living in France, enjoying the good life with our cats. Our house is in a small hamlet among the Ste. Foy vines. We also have a sailboat that the male half of the spousal unit sailed across the Atlantic in the summer of 08. When the weather warms we will start to visit the sailing ports of Europe. Our stories chronicle our life in France: the good life, the hard life, and the sailing life.

Best Ribs in the Universe


At least that is according to the Weber website where we got the recipe. We have not found short ribs in the grocery stores in France although if you go to a butcher I am sure they will cut them for you. But in Brussels we found pork ribs that we bought to smoke. RXC prepared the meat with a spice rub, used plum wood in the smoker, and we finished with a sauce with a bit of heat. They were delicious. Instead of coleslaw we had celeri remoulade plus a ratatouille. Great meal. And at the exact time we were having our ribs we were communing with Karen and Pete who should have been at Park Avenue.
