TODAY on MHTV: Whenever I see gray clouds rolling in the morning of a planned cookout, I put my no-fail backup plan into action. Even though they’re oven-roasted, my St. Louis-style ribs are full of smoky flavor — the secret is in the dry rub of brown sugar and spices. And whether I’m indoors or out, I love a good potato salad and my tangy and sweet coleslaw. More from the show.

    The coleslaw you made today is the one my grandmother made which as a little girl is the only kind of coleslaw I would eat. (I am 59) Your 11:30 show today with short ribs is a lifesaver. My husband loves short ribs but dislikes(actually hates) barbeque sauce and I can take only so much sauerkraut. thanks so much

    Lucinda,
    You always seem so rude to your son when he is helping you. I enjoy watching your show but please control your condescending or rude comments to him. He is a very delightful young man.
