I was looking for a desert I could feed to vegetarians who will not eat gelatin (animal parts boiled up for the cartlidge! sp??) which is in the instant pudding. So I followed most of the recipe but used a cooked coconut pudding which I made with coconut milk and I added some coconut cream I had in. I omitted the instant topping but added some whipping cream instead. I was concerned about it not setting so added just a little pectin too. I did not pour it into the crust until I cooled it and could see it thickening. Had it not thickened I was going to heat it up and put a little cornstarch in. Dressed with the toasted coconut and fruit it looked divine, and when I saw I had enough for two pies I halved it and made one for the adults with a little coconut rum. Yummy. Not too many instant puddings for vegetarians so mixed with different flavors this will become my stock desert for our friends.

I downloaded this half an hour ago and thought it sounds nice enough and simple - BUT wow when I got it into the crockpot and tasted it - it was really terrific. The sauce was not too sweet and I licked my wooden spoon down to a splinter. Def a keeper and thats before I tasted it!!

I am English and my hubby is from the South so in our house he is always the one to do ribs (not a traditional thing in the UK at all). Yesterday was 4th July and he was working so I decided to treat him with ribs as a surprise. I followed the recipe and the advice I saw from others and it was fab!! He was so surprised and pleased (maybe even miffed that I did so well. LOL). The top rack on our bbq does not work well though, and so could not cook them that way. Instead I put 4 medium potatoes on the grill and laid the ribs on top of them. It kept the ribs away from direct heat until the last 20 mins or so, and then I scooped the inside out for mash! I think the flavor of the rub was just to my taste. Delicious.
