QUEALY'S QUESO

Chili con queso is a standard party dip in South Texas, where the chef Quealy Watson lives and works: melted cheese with chopped green chiles, generally, to be served with chips. Watson gives the dish an Asian spin, using the Southeast Asian chile paste known as sambal oelek in place of the green chiles. The Velveeta cheese he calls for is not for everyone, but it is powerfully easy to work with - you couldn't break it if you tried. Heavy cream helps thin out the queso a little, and the chile paste gives it a fascinating fire.

  • Microwave on high setting for 3 minutes, then stir, and microwave again for a few minutes until the cheese is molten. Stir again to combine.
  • Add a splash of water to thin mixture if necessary, then microwave for 20 seconds more. Serve immediately, with tortilla chips.

QUEALY WATSON'S CABRITO

Barbecued baby goat is a specialty of South Texas, where The Times traveled in 2015 to see the chef Quealy Watson cook it in mesquite smoke under a spray of dried avocado leaves, which gave the meat a faint scent of anise. You could make this dish with a single goat leg or a pork butt or even a brisket. The idea is simply to get a lot of smoke on the meat, then wrap it and allow it to steam slowly into perfection over time. Serve over brown paper on a big table with lots of tortillas and salsas: Tear away what you need for a taco, then repeat.

Steps:

  • Light a charcoal grill or smoker, or heat oven to 250. If goat is too large for your grill, smoker or oven, cut it in half across the backbone at the top of its rear legs to create two halves.
  • Season the meat aggressively with salt and pepper. If smoking, place the goat on the smoker and cover, keeping the heat around 220 to 250. If grilling, move coals to one side of the grill, and place goat on the other, away from the direct flame, then cover the grill. If oven-roasting, put goat on a sheet pan and place in the oven.
  • Cook the goat for 2 hours or so, until it has taken on some color, then remove from the heat and place on a large sheet of aluminum foil. Scatter the avocado leaves across the meat, and wrap the goat in the foil, using another sheet of foil if necessary.
  • Place the covered goat on a sheet pan, and put in the oven to continue cooking for 3 or 4 more hours, until the meat is tender and pulls away from the bone. Serve with tortillas and salsas.

RED-COOKED BEEF SHORT RIBS

Traditional red-cooked dishes - they take their name from the mahogany color the sauce imparts to the meat - are simple braises of rice wine, light and dark soy sauces, with some sugar and aromatics. The version Jennifer Hwa Dobbertin and Quealy Watson serve at Best Quality Daughter, their restaurant in San Antonio, turbocharges that formula. Dried chiles and Sichuan peppercorns bring fire and tingle, and star anise and cinnamon provide warmth. There's a whisper of orange, a bite of ginger. Tomato paste and doubanjiang, a fermented chile bean paste, offer depth. Do take the time to use some of the braising liquid to serve as the base for the finishing glaze, thick and glossy as demi-glace. It's worth it.

Red-Cooked Beef Short Ribs image

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 300 degrees. Prepare the ribs: Heat oil in a large lidded Dutch oven over medium-high. Working in batches, sear short ribs on all sides until deeply and evenly browned, about 10 minutes per batch. Transfer browned short ribs to a large plate, and continue with remaining ribs.
  • Pour off all but 2 tablespoons of remaining fat, leaving the good browned bits behind. Reduce heat to medium. Add ginger, cinnamon, chiles, orange peel, Sichuan peppercorns, black peppercorns and star anise, and stir to get them coated in the fat. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the ginger has started to soften.
  • Add the rice wine, soy sauces, sugar and molasses, then the chicken stock, and stir to combine. Using tongs, return short ribs to the pot, along with any juices that have accumulated, nestling them into the braising liquid bone-side up, so the meat is submerged. Bring to a simmer, then cover and transfer to oven.
  • Cook, undisturbed, until short ribs are meltingly tender and falling off the bone (you should be able to shred the meat with a fork), 3 1/2 to 4 hours.
  • Using tongs, remove the ribs from the pot and put them on a warm platter. Wrap tightly with aluminum foil and a couple of dish towels to keep them warm while you make the sauce.
  • Prepare the sauce: Strain 3 cups of the braising liquid from the Dutch oven into another pot, discarding remaining braising liquid and solids. Set it over medium-high heat, and add the onions, tomato paste, doubanjiang, soy sauce, rice wine, ginger, garlic and five-spice powder; stir to combine. Bring to a boil, then cook, undisturbed, for 15 minutes, until reduced and thickened.
  • Strain the sauce through a colander back into the Dutch oven you used to cook the ribs, and place the pot over medium-high heat. Make a slurry of the cornstarch and 3 tablespoons water, then whisk it into the sauce to thicken, 1 to 2 minutes. You're looking for something thick and glossy, like a demi-glace.
  • Unwrap the ribs, daub them liberally with the sauce and serve with Bibb lettuce leaves, Thai basil, cilantro, scallions, cucumbers, rice and the remaining sauce.

2 tablespoons neutral oil, like canola
5 pounds bone-in short ribs, at least 1 1/2 inches thick
1 (3-inch) piece fresh ginger, peeled and cut into thick slices
2 cinnamon sticks
8 dried Chinese chiles
4 pieces dried orange peel (or fresh orange peel with no pith, well toasted)
3 tablespoons Sichuan peppercorns, toasted, then crushed or ground (about 2 tablespoons)
2 tablespoons whole black peppercorns
2 whole star anise
1 cup Shaoxing rice wine
1 1/2 cups low-sodium soy sauce
1/2 cup dark soy sauce
1 packed cup light or dark brown sugar
1 tablespoon molasses
3 cups chicken stock
3 cups braising liquid from the ribs
2 medium white onions, peeled and thinly sliced
1/4 cup tomato paste
1/4 cup doubanjiang
1/3 cup low-sodium soy sauce
1/2 cup Shaoxing rice wine
1 (1-inch) piece fresh ginger, peeled and cut into thick slices
5 garlic cloves, roughly chopped
1 teaspoon five-spice powder
3 tablespoons cornstarch
Bibb lettuce leaves
Thai basil, chopped cilantro and sliced scallions
Sliced cucumbers
Cooked white rice

SOUTH TEXAS BARBECUED DUCK

This is a remarkably straightforward way of cooking a duck and results in powerfully smoky and salty-sweet meat. The recipe came to The Times in 2015 via the San Antonio chef Quealy Watson, who cooked it in a smoker filled with small logs of mesquite. You could make do with a grill if you kept one side of it entirely free of coals and placed the duck away from the flames. Straight kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper can be used in place of the Lawry's.

Steps:

  • Light a charcoal grill or smoker, or heat oven to 250.
  • Make a dry rub by combining the cinnamon, coriander, cumin, black pepper and seasoned salt in a small bowl. Season the duck aggressively with the rub, applying it all over the body, inside and out.
  • If smoking, place the duck on the smoker and cover, keeping the heat around 220 to 250. If grilling, move coals to one side of the grill and place duck on the other, away from the direct flame, then cover the grill. If oven-roasting, place duck in a roasting pan, and put in the oven.
  • Cook the duck for 2 hours or so, until it has taken on some color, then remove from the heat, and place on a large sheet of aluminum foil. Wrap the duck in the foil, using another sheet if necessary.
  • Place the wrapped duck in a clean roasting pan, and put in the oven to continue cooking for 2 or 3 more hours, until the meat is tender and pulls away from the bone. Serve with tortillas and salsas.
