2 tablespoons Cajun Shake
3 tablespoons Original Louisiana Hot Sauce
1 cup Cajun Injector BBQ Mesquite Marinade
Prepare grill for indirect cooking by putting charcoal on one side of grill.

If using gas grill, heat one burner on high. Remove baby back ribs from package and allow to breathe for 5 minutes. Pat with paper towels and generously apply Cajun Shake and Louisiana Hot Sauce to both sides of ribs. Sear ribs on both sides. Remove from grill and wrap tightly in foil. Return ribs to grill and cook for 2 hours over indirect heat.

As is true of many Chinese dishes, the most difficult part of the recipe is in the sauce, and making it can be daunting for the home cook.

But now, dishes such as Kung Pao Chicken are easy to make at home when using a purchased bottled sauce, such as Annie Chun’s Kung Pao sauce. Traditional Kung Pao sauce is made with naturally brewed soy sauce, roasted sesame oil, ginger, garlic and chili.
