Leftover Rib Macaroni Salad
"This Leftover Rib Macaroni Salad is a nice twist on the classic macaroni salad that lets you stretch out your hard work at making ribs. Tossed together, it’s actually a really beautiful side dish (in my personal opinion). It also happens to be really good. It keeps great in the fridge for a few days and stretches your ribs from a main to a side dish with little trouble. If you have leftovers ribs, make this Rib Macaroni Salad!"

Ingredients

- 1 cup Stubb's Original Bar-B-Q Sauce

Pull off enough meat from leftover ribs to measure out about two cups of meat. You’ll probably need 3-4 ribs to get this amount depending on size of the ribs. Roughly chop the rib meat.

Cook elbow macaroni according to instructions. Drain macaroni.

In a small bowl, whisk together mayo, Stubb’s Original Bar-B-Q Sauce, apple cider vinegar, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
