And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Should I cook them on low heat (250 degrees) for a long time (3 hours)

This - you want low & slow so the connective tissue will have time to baste the meat as it melts.

I'm cooking spare ribs in the oven for tonight. I rubbed them with a rub (thank you, Jamie Oliver) and am ready to put them in. Should I cook them on low heat (250 degrees) for a long time (3 hours) or should I use a higher temperature?

America's Test Kitchen did indoors spare ribs on this weekend's episode, and they cooked them on a rack in a sheet pan over some smoky tea (Lapsong Souchong, I think it was), set the pan on a cooking/pizza stone after it had heated up to 500 degrees, cooked it at that temp for about 30-45 minutes, and then backed it down to 250 for 2 1/2 to 3 hours, IIRC. Oh, and they made sure to cover the pan in tin foil to keep the steaming/smoking contained.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

We made stock this weekend with a beef and lamb bone. The lamb was a *terrible* idea; the smell made us both too sick to sleep, and the whole thing is a greasy mess. I hope it doesn't ruin the taste, though.

There is a Golden Retriever in my dining room that my neighbor and I found wandering the busy street by my house. The damn thing is trying to bond with me so I don't call animal control.

Make it stop looking at me with those eyes!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Tonight I'm going to make a vat of fruity curried chicken salad which I will eat for lunch the rest of the week. I have a bunch of apples and grapes I need to use up before they go bad.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I am still stuck on different quick and uncooked things to toss Buitoni tortellini in.

Oh, and eating out.
