ALTERNATE HONEY BARBECUE SAUCE WITH RIBLETS (APPLEBEE'S COPYCAT)

Steps:

• Preparing the Riblets: First, season the riblets with salt, pepper and garlic, depending on how spicy you want them.
• Then, sear the ribs on the grill/broiler until both sides are mahogany in color and the meat has begun to pull away from the bone (155°F internal temperature).
• Place the riblets on rack in a deep pan/roaster.
• Cover the bottom of the pan with a mixture of water and liquid smoke flavoring (4:1 ratio of water to liquid smoke).
• Apply the mixture strategically, so as not to touch the riblets (it will make them bitter), just cover the space between them.
• Seal the pan tightly with two layers of foil wrap to cover.
• Slow cook the riblets in 275°F oven until their meat is tender. Time varies with how many riblets are being cooked, the pan used and your oven temperature. Plan on anywhere from two to five hours, but check to be sure. The slower, the better for this process. Just make sure an internal food temperature of 155°F is maintained.
• You can also try covering the riblets with chopped onions, peppers and tomatoes. This also keeps them moist and adds a nice flavor.
• When the riblets are fully cooked and tender, remove them from the oven and finish them off on grill/broiler until the marrow in the bone tips "sizzles".
• Preparing the Honey Barbecue Sauce: Combine all the ingredients for the sauce in a saucepan and simmer them for 20 minutes.
• Brush the riblets with the sauce and serve them warm.

COPYCAT APPLEBEE'S HONEY GRILLED SALMON

Steps:

• Mix together mustard, honey, soy sauce, lime juice, rice wine vinegar, sesame oil, and minced garlic. Marinate salmon filet with the honey sauce for at least 30 minutes (preferably overnight).
• When ready to cook, remove the salmon from marinade, pat it dry, and salt and pepper both sides. Brush a preheated grill with the grape seed oil and cook the salmon skin-side up for 4 minutes, then flip over and cook for another 5 minutes or until the salmon is just cooked.
• While the fish is cooking, make the honey sauce. In a small saucepan, bring the marinade to a boil. Make a slurry with the cornstarch and water and add it to the heating sauce. Boil for 1 minute to cook and thicken slightly. Add a pinch of salt, then serve with the grilled salmon.
