With just the two of us, we skip the fixing at home deal and go out.
Yesterday we went to Pucketts and each had a half slab of Memphis dry rub ribs. I had collards and baked beans, she had baked beans and tater salad as the sides. We both like Memphis dry rubbed ribs. Not as messy. If you want some sauce, add a thin line on the edge.
Down here there's always a roll of paper towels on the table and butcher paper underneath so you can eat sloppy ole BBQ ribs with lotsa sauce all over 'em.? And if you don't grab a little hand cleaner packet or 4 on your way out, then ya just didn't eat 'em right.?

Cool. I don't do sloppy. If a burger looks too big I use a knife and fork.

@mjp28 could you post the recipe for the homemade barbecue sauce please?
OK this is my wife's mother's old HELEN'S HOMEMADE BARBECUE SAUCE we've always liked it. Remember its a good idea to double the quantities to make a little more.
NOTE: one typed page is just the ingredients page the second hand written page are my wife's instructions. Oh and you get a bonus HELEN'S SPAGHETTI SAUCE.
So here it is, and any questions or comments just let me know.
Bon Appétit !

Seems like a lot of repetitive work to me. I just take a soild bottle of BBQ and add my own flair. Maybe some brown sugar or molasses if it needs more sweet. Maybe some vinegar or lemon juice if it is too sweet. Maybe a little liquid smoke if I want that, a few different spices or hot sauce if it needs that.
As for tomato gravy, I use a can or two of San Marziano tomato's with basil. 3'4 sticks of butter and 1 large onion peeled and cut through the pole, not the equator....and simmer out for 4 hours, covered. Remove the onion half's and you are good to go.
Obviously you stir regularly and crush up the tomato as you go. I will usually add some diced garlic at the beginning, and maybe a extra basil leaf or two from my herb garden. For Sunday gravy, just half cook the meatballs, or a portion of them and let them finish cooking while simmering in the gravy to release some of their greasy goodness in to the pot.
Just as a point, I am sure the BBQ is very good. In the end, I don't use enough to really care all that much.

You're just a pussy like my wife. Damn R.I. Yankee thinks she needs a knife and fork to eat fried chicken too?. If Ya wanna eat ribs right ya gotta be able to gnaw on 'em. And if a steak doesn't say "Moo!" when ya cut into it, ya left it on the coals too long.???

I eat ribs with my hands for the most part and make sure the bones are clean. I just don't like sauce all over my hands and everywhere else. I agree for the most part on steaks. i may not do them rare but they have plenty of life in them and just warm.
Chicken, it depends...hands for fried, fork for most else. My Grandmama was a Cajun from Louisiana, Gramps was from Alabama. I am not quite the Yankee my Ohio birth might indicate. I know how to get after a mess of crawdads on a picnic table covered with newspaper. My Mom cooked true to her upbringing.
If everybody had like minds, we would never learn. -

Right it depends on the meal and the company and other factors how you prepare and eat stuff.
If it's just my wife and me we generally keep it simple and cleanup easy. A bigger group and a whole bunch of food might be different.
And yes I often eat things with a knife and fork it all depends on the details, number of guests, etc.
Big quantities or easy meals for two. No matter what bon appetit, and enjoy your meals.

Ok, now we're talkin'! Born and lived my first 12 plus 7 mo. in Beaumont (yeah French for beautiful mountain but there were none), Texas just miles from Cajunland, but far more Cajun than any other part of Texas and deep in the heart of rice growing lands. I love crawfish better'n lobster!!? And there's no Cajun food I won't eat with gusto.?

Never cared for Cajun cuisine... But I love Muffaletta... Which is actually a Sicilian creation brought over by Sicilian immigrants... I was raised on Tapenade and Olive salad... My grandfather came from Sicily...

I'm not a fan of olives in general, but I love it in a really good Mexican dip down here that includes black olives, guacamole, cheese, bean paste, tomatos, sauce, etc. I don't mind it on the "everything you can load on Pizza" either. But stranger still is that when I can find it I'm the only one who loves just a plain ole anchovy with cheese and tomato sauce pizza. Never had a pizza before I lived in Venezuela, but they had a pizzaria owned/operated by Italian immigrants just a few blocks away and that is what they started me with. Love those salty little devils on pizza.?
That gives my age away. Pizza Hut was founded in Kansas in 1958 and had several locations there within a year. Left for Venezuela in 1959. I'm sure cal would say stopping for a refueling at the Havana airport made a commie outa me.?? It was a 4 prop DC-7. Damn I'm old!?

I love Olives... I hate seafood or anything that swims in the water... However... I love NE clam chowder... I absolutely can't stand Guac! ???? Or Avacado for that matter.. And Cilantro makes me GAG!!
Nickers...."There are no old running QB's in the NFL "~Sam Rutigliano~ -
Smoked Chicken Wings. You will not do it any other way again.
Dry Rubbed hours In advance. I use Chica Licka Bam Bam Bird Rub and some Franks Red Hot Dry Rub and generous with salt and pepper.
If you can’t find this rub The Bird Rub is Black Pepper, Paprika, Cayenne, Garlic, Mustard, Thyme.
I use apple and mesquite wood chips for my smoker. Apple is great wood chip for anything chicken. I cook the first hour and half on low 225 and then I crank the heat the last 30- 45 mins - I get it up to 325. You see a little bourbon in the pic- you can’t smoke without the bourbon.

I remembered that you like the olives and artichokes which are a big part of my appetizers.
I buy them by the 12 can box from Amazon and delivered to our house with a asparagus, French style green beans, spinach and other canned and bottled products. Saves us a lot of carrying and I do check prices.
★ And I checked for SD's chicka licka bam bam rub there on Amazon pantry not listed so it will be hard to find.

I see it regularly at a Place called Food4Less. It is like the East cost ALDIs.
I just did a search online and Walmart has it.

Green and black olives straight were two of my gag reflex foods as a kid, the other being cold canned asparagus?. But the one year I lived in Caracas we had several year round avocado bearing trees and we used a long pole with an open ended tin can to fit over them up in the tree. If they rattled off with a gentle rattle, they were perfect for eating. We had them every day in so many different ways I lost track. Nothing like a half avocado with French Dressing in the hole where the seed resided. Just use a decent sized spoon to dig some out along with the dressing for a good side snack with dinner. Our local grocer makes a really great guacamole dip too. YUM!!!?
EDIT: Seafood? Baked in butter, broiled, blackened, etc. is great with the only exception being catfish that tastes just like the bottom dweller that it is. I can eat a pound or more of shrimp any ole way you want to give it to me. Fried crawfish tails are great too.?

No matter what kinds of olives or other appetizers and different types of seafood it's interesting to see what other people eat and how they cook it.
Thanks again for your input and ideas.
