Ali & Marco talk about:

PAPER PLANE

• 3/4 oz Bourbon
• 3/4 oz Aperol
• 3/4 oz Amaro (Nonino or Montenegro)
• 3/4 oz lemon juice

Get your shaker and your money maker, pour the above ingredients into your ice filled shaker. Give it a turbulent shake as if your plane were flying into the Bermuda Triangle. Grab your trusty couple glass, pour it in, garnish with lemon, a paper plane or whatever tickles your fancy. Sit back, put your feet up and enjoy it as if you were in First Class. Special shout out to Sam Ross for inventing this cocktail that Toronto loves . (come on our podcast man).

MEXICAN-INSPIRED SHORT RIBS

Dust off your slow cookers for this one!

7-10 short ribs (depending on the size of your slow cooker)

1 red onion, minced

6-8 garlic cloves, smashed and minced

2 ripe, medium-sized tomatoes, chopped

OR 4-5 tomatillos (from a can)

2 tbsp tomato paste

10-20 sprigs of thyme

1 1/2 tsp dried oregano

1 pasilla chili (or other dried, whole chilies)

2 tbsp paprika

2 tbsp cumin seeds

1 tbsp ground coriander

1 cinnamon stick

1 tsp red chili flakes (or to taste)

Salt to taste

Cook this for 4 hours on high or 8 hours on low....and NOW YOU GOT OPTIONS!

• remove bones and extra fat (or not - live your best life), and toss the meat with some rice
• OR, shred the meat and use a filing in a tacos, on a tostada, nachos or in a lettuce wrap
• OR, plate the big chunks with sauce in a plate and serve with mashed potatoes
• ORRRR... just eat all the ribs directly over the slow cooker, and when someone asks about them, say "Ribs? What Ribs? You're crazy."
