ARGENTINEAN-STYLE RIBS WITH HOMEMADE CHIMICHURRI
Argentinean preparation is simple but is all about the cooking technique. These ribs cook better on a rotisserie as they self-baste for maximum flavor and juiciness. If you're going to cook this recipe on a grill, add some charcoal or hardwood to add more flavor to the ribs. If you do not have a rotisserie set-up, you can simply cook these directly on the grill. Allow the chimichurri to rest at least 2 hours before serving - this will allow time for the flavors to marry together. The chimichurri is a delicious spread that adds a zest to any Argentinian style dish, and this makes a great topping for the slow roasted ribs. This can also be a great topping for grilled chicken breast, lamb or fish.

Steps:
- For the chimichurri: Add the parsley, basil, oregano, onion, garlic, bell pepper, lime zest, oil, vinegar, salt and pepper to a food processor. Pulse together till your desired texture is reached. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.
- For the ribs: Set up a grill with charcoal. Once the coals are white-hot, place some smoked hardwood on top of the coals to create some smoke.
- Sprinkle the ribs liberally with the salt and pepper on both sides. If using a rotisserie, thread the ribs on spit/skewers so they are stacked up and threaded neatly.
- Once the fire has settled, place the ribs over the fire and turn on the rotisserie. Cook for 1 to 2 hours until desired doneness and the ribs have an internal temp of 190 degrees F. Serve immediately off the rotisserie with the chimichurri sauce.

Remove the steak from the grill and slice long strips from the outer edges of the steak. Instruct guests to pick up a steak slice from the cutting board with their fingers, place it on a slice of baguette, and enjoy. Return the remaining steak to the grill, baste, and grill until more of the steak is cooked. Remove and repeat the slicing and serving procedure until steak is consumed. For extra spicy steak, baste 2 or 3 additional times with the cayenne pepper mixture during grilling process. Spoon chimichurri sauce over steak. (Also brilliant on any grilled fish or chicken)
