That wasn't aimed at you. That was for all my detractors that say I
never post anything food-related when that's far from the truth.
Just one of my posts top a whole month's worth of posts from some of
them.
"Cesspool thread"? I probably skipped it with a subject like that.

It's on Wiki as:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yakiniku
But refers to beef short ribs (Galbi/Kalbi) in Japan. These are the
almost the equivalent of pork short ribs, but not from the "chuck"
of the pig.
"The word karubi (Japanese pronunciation of galbi), when used in
Japan, solely refers to beef short rib, and is not used to refer to
similar meat in other animals as they are in Korea, such as Dwaeji
galbi (돼지갈비 pork galbi) or Dakk galbi (*갈비 chicken galbi)."
(Note for Cathy: requires Korean and Japanese character sets to be
installed on your computer otherwise you see garbage)

I don't remember exactly what I used on these, but here is a picture
of them rubbed. It was probably my generic BBQ rub (garlic, onion,
slight sugar, salt, pepper:

If you need a binary server to post to ABF and such, just let me
