Leftovers: BBQ Rib Sandwich

Sometimes, you might get a bit overzealous in your country style rib ambitions. Or, maybe your guests are philistines and have turned up their noses at non-babyback products. Or maybe you just really like leftovers. Whatever the case, you're reading this because you woke up this morning and found ribs in your fridge, and you know full well that day-after ribs are never as good as the fresh-off-the-grill variety. Experience is a cruel mistress.

Luckily for you, there's a viable use for leftover ribs that by and large doesn't taste like leftovers. Instead, it tastes like barbecued pulled pork, which I consider to be a perfectly acceptable substitute. The secret is to get the meat steaming hot. If it's not hot enough, the juices won't run right and the meat will be dry.

1 pre-barbecued country-style rib
1 sandwich roll
barbecue sauce of your choice

Slice the rib into bite-sized chunks. Microwave on medium-high in 90 second increments until hot. Put in sandwich roll, add sauce to taste, and eat. Makes 1 sandwich.
