God speed on your journey my friend, you will be missed greatly.

Brian, thanks for the picture. I had quite a few non-forum and in person exchanges with Freddie, and one of them was discussing his rib recipe back in 2001 or so. I believe he has posted some inklings of it here as well.

Every time I cook ribs, the family and I think of Freddie, and his graciousness in sharing a few of his secrets. His zeal for life, fun, perfectionism, and all else "that is Freddie" will always be remembered when I stand in front of the smoker, or see someone enjoying a Mojito, or someone enjoying their Cobra. We should all carry forward his wonderful zest for life and sharing.

My sincerest condolences to his family and other friends.
