Copycat John Alden Rollwich Recipes

COPYCAT CALIFORNIAN ROLLWICH

Steps:

• Spread the mayonnaise on the tortilla, making sure to leave at least 1/2 inch around the outside.
• Scoop the flesh from the avocado and mash, mixing with a dash of lemon juice to preserve color. You should end up with about 1 1/2-2 Tablespoons mashed avocado. If your avocado is larger just save the rest for another sandwich!
• Spread avocado over mayonnaise.
• Add the turkey and a thin layer of lettuce or sprouts.
• Place the 3 tomato slices in a line down the center of the tortilla, if using.
• Make sure you don't fill the tortilla too full or get too close to the edge, or it won't wrap properly!
• Carefully roll the tortilla into a wrap. Cut into two pieces, if desired.
• Enjoy a taste of sunny California.

CHEF JOHN'S COPYCAT MCRIB® SANDWICH

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
• Mix salt, brown sugar, chili powder, pepper, cumin, and cayenne together for the rub.
• Place ribs on a foil-lined baking sheet. Season both sides generously with some of the rub. Reserve remaining rub for another use. Cover top with parchment paper and wrap foil over the edges. Cover the whole baking sheet with another large sheet of foil, sealing in the sides.
• Bake in the preheated oven until tender, about 2 hours and 45 minutes.
• Unwrap ribs and let cool briefly until safe to handle. Pull out the bones, stuffing any loose pieces of meat back into the holes and checking carefully for bone fragments. Wrap ribs back up and refrigerate until cold, 8 hours to overnight.
• Cut each rack in half. Brush both sides generously with barbecue sauce.
• Preheat a charcoal grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Grill ribs until heated through, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Remove from grill and brush with more barbecue sauce.
• Drizzle more barbecue sauce onto each roll. Sandwich each rib section between a roll and top with coleslaw.
