The ribs were made by my brother, who never writes anything down, but they were so good I had to share this idea. The sliders are served on tiny jalapeno cheddar corn muffins, topped with roasted fresh corn, cilantro, and a dill pickle slice. If you're not a fan of heat, you can skip the jalapeños...
