The bucket list dinner

We have introduced film night to Kitchenfairies entertainment, and, because I can't resist a food ritual I have decided to match the food to the film.  Tonight it was "The Bucket List" - so I asked for bucket list food suggestions.  
The requests were BBQ ribs, bacon wrap shrimp and cheese souffle.  To these I added potato wedges and celeriac slaw.

The ribs take a while - overnight to marinate and then 2+ hours to bake.  I have written the "recipe" in order of process, so omit the bits you don't want, or add in your own bits.  The soufflé recipe has a page of its own.

Baked BBQ ribs

pork ribs
barbeque spice rub

brown sugar
BBQ sauce

Celeriac slaw

red onion
white onion
red cabbage
carrots
celeriac
lemon juice

potatoes
raw shrimp
smoked streaky bacon
garlic


1.  Mix together the barbeque spice, a big pinch of salt and a spoonful of brown sugar.  Massage this mix into the pork ribs.  Wrap in foil and marinade for up to 24 hours.
2.  Bake the ribs, in their foil, on a tray for 2 hours - at 200.
3.  Start the cheese sauce for the soufflé.
4.  Prep and chop veg for the slaw (finely slice onions, peel and julienne carrots and celeriac, shred cabbage) mix, spritz in the juice of 1 lemon, and add a big pinch of salt, mix well.  Cover and leave in the fridge until everything else is ready.
6.  Prep potato wedges, roast in olive oil for about an hour.
7.  Bake soufflé.
8.  Wrap shrimp in bacon, toss in olive oil and roast for 10 minutes.  I also roasted some with crushed garlic for the pescatarian.
9.  Take the foil off the ribs, slather with BBQ sauce, put back in the oven - on the foil, they just get stickier - bake for 5 minutes
9.  Serve, scoff … also serve mayonnaise for those who like their coleslaw creamy.
