Should you ever find yourself in a predicament where you have leftover ribs, you might just want a couple suggestions on how to use them.

Many cooks prefer to just heat them up on the grill or in the oven.

And then, there are those who want their leftover ribs like they eat leftover fried chicken – cold and eaten while standing over the kitchen sink.

But, if you are in a creative mood, here are a couple of ideas.

1. Make meaty baked beans
2. Add to Mexican dishes such as tamales, empanadas or tacos.
3. French-dip style sandwiches
4. Use as a topping for barbecue pizza

Or...

5. BBQ stuffed corn muffins (recipe below)



BBQ Pork Stuffed Corn Muffins
cooking spray
1 (8.5 ounce) package dry corn muffin mix
1 egg
1/3 cup milk
1/2 cup shredded pepperjack cheese
1 cup rib meat tossed in barbeque sauce

1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
2. Line a muffin tin with paper baking cups. Spray each cup with cooking spray.
3. Stir together muffin mix, egg, milk, and 1/4 cup of shredded cheese in a bowl until combined.
4. Fill muffin cups halfway with batter.
5. Add 1 to 2 tablespoons of rib meat to each cup.
6. Top with remaining batter.
7. Use the remaining shredded cheese to top each muffin.
8. Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the batter comes out clean, about 20 minutes.

If you've got ribs left over, you've done something wrong.
