It’s that time! Heat up your grills & get cookin’! Yum!

Today’s feature is baby-back pork ribs & mango salsa. Let me tell you about Bad Byron’s Butt Rub – one word: DELICIOUS! I highly recommend getting this as an addition to your kitchen and outdoor grill. And the owner’s behind this site, very friendly. Check out: http://www.buttrub.com/ (doesn’t the link make you feel like you might hit a porno site?). Don’t worry, it’s not. It’s a legite site. Promise. 🙂

Make sure your meat is at room temperature, sprinkle on Bad Byron’s Butt Rub, and rub it like your giving it a good massage. Startin’ to sound kind of racey, huh? Flip it over and repeat. Let your meat sit out while the grill is heatin’ up. Throw the meat on the grill (or veggies) and whip up this recipe for Cooking Light’s Mango Salsa. Don’t the ingredients below look delicious? You know you want to try it…
