Toby Keith’s Upstairs, Downtown Fried Pork Spare Ribs

By January 20, 2010 Food



Singer Toby Keith is most famous for his country song of the 1990’s “Should’ve Been A Cowboy” but he also has a favorite recipe.

Oklahoman Toby Keith was a rodeo athlete in high school and rode bulls and broncs but not as a professional. He formed a band, spent time in Nashville but his career wasn’t happening. Fortunately for Keith, a flight attendant and fan of his gave a copy of Keith’s demo tape to Harold Shedd, a Mercury Records executive, while he was traveling on a flight she was working. Shedd enjoyed what he heard, went to see Keith perform live and then signed him to a recording contract with Mercury. These days he’s a singer-songwriter, record producer and actor with a dozen best selling albums to his credit. He’s also been in two movies including Beer For My Horses.

But this blog entry is about his favorite recipe called Upstairs, Downtown Fried Pork Spare Ribs.
