GAIL TOMA Pillows Available At Kitty Clay Main Street Southampton

Visit Kitty Clay’s and keep in mind  the power of the pillow.

Here at the Mainstay, a Southampton Classic Bed and Breakfast well over 100 years old, I had the pleasure to stage this home and add a few pillows from my collection.

The GAIL TOMA Vanilla, Sapphire and Blueberry Martini Ltd. Edition Silk pillows added just the right splash of color to this previously all white and grey historical living room.

 

GAIL TOMA’s Martini Pillows in The Mainstay Southampton NY

With 32 colors in each palette the Martini Pillows added just the right warmth and splash of color to pull the accenting accessories from art and books together.

This jewel of a B&B in Southampton has a long history and its’ owner Elizabeth Main has stylishly maintained this for the last 24 years.  A great place to spend a holiday.

“Elizabeth Main has owned this charming Southampton home for over twenty years. The house which goes back almost 200 years has been lovingly restored to capture the easy country elegance of the old days of Southampton.  Mainstay is the longest run private Bed and Breakfast in Southampton.  The home is on an acre of property on historic Hill Street and within walking and biking of the glorious world famous  Coopers Beach and elegant shopping on Main Street and Jobs Lane. Shinnecock, Sebonac and National Golf Courses are approximately one mile from the property which has a 20×40 in-ground SALTWATER pool and 1/2 acre perennial gardens.   Mainstay has been featured in Good Housekeeping’s June 2001 subscription issue and ON THE JITNEY magazine issue , today the country home is used as a summer house for extended families during the season as well as still inviting guest on occasion for off season with limited availability. ”

Great Way to Spend A Snowy Evening in The Hamptons

This winter wonderland is lovely with its’ white coating on all the trees, farmlands and gated homes of the Hamptons.  If you find yourself snowed in, in the Hamptons or can get out here in between storms stop your world enjoy a good book in front of a fire or head to Southampton Village and have a great meal, bring your cross country skis out and have a great day.

Tonight we are the lucky guests of Elizabeth Main, owner of The Mainstay in Southampton Village.  She is cooking her amazing and decadent ‘ribs’ in one of the most inviting kitchens I have ever been in.

While unfortunate to others, her kitchen is only open to her Inn’s guests for breakfast; the Mainstay offers a wonderful breakfast in her country dining room.  Discover the old world antique shingled Hamptons home on Hill Street.  It is fabulous all year round.

When you  get cabin fever, head to Prince of Scots in Watermill and discover my collection GAIL TOMA, nouveaucouture.com.  A perfect addition to your wardrobe for winter is one of my Glamour Scarves trimmed in feather or ostrich.  Wear it with a winter coat, as a shawl year round with jeans to black tie.  You’ll wear it over and over again for years to come.

Apple Cider Ribs

★★★★★ ★★★★★

Be the first to review this product

Yields: 4 servings
Cook time: 3 3/4 hours Prep time: 20 minutes

Ingredients

• 1 cup KC Masterpiece Original Barbecue Sauce
• 2 slabs loin back ribs (baby back)

Liquid Seasoning

• 1 tablespoon dry rub mix
• ¼ cup apple jelly
• ¼ cup brown sugar
• ¼ cup honey
• ½ cup apple cider

Dry Rub

• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 teaspoons salt
• 4 teaspoons chili powder
• 4 teaspoons garlic salt
• ¼ cup dark brown sugar
• ¼ teaspoon cinnamon
• ¼ teaspoon red pepper
• ¼ teaspoon white pepper
• ½ teaspoon celery salt

Instructions

1. Remove the membrane from the back of the rib slabs. In a small bowl, combine the dry rub ingredients and mix well. Reserve a tablespoon of the rub for the liquid seasoning mixture. Generously apply the dry rub onto the front and back sides of ribs. Gently pat to ensure that the rub will adhere.
2. Build a charcoal fire for indirect cooking by situating the coals on only one side of the grill, leaving the other side void. Add a small aluminum pan to the void side of the grill and fill it halfway with water. When the charcoal grill reaches 250˚F, place ribs meat-side up on grill grate and cook over indirect heat for two hours and 15 minutes.
3. Remove the ribs from the grill. Place each slab meat-side down on its own doubled aluminum foil square. The foil should be large enough to completely wrap each slab. Mix the liquid seasoning in a small bowl. Pour ½-cup of the liquid over each slab. Then, tightly wrap and seal each slab with aluminum foil. Place the wrapped ribs back in cooker for one hour at 250˚F.
4. Remove the ribs from the charcoal grill, unwrap and discard foil. Brush finishing glaze on both sides of the ribs. Place the ribs back on the grill for 15 minutes, or until sauce caramelizes.
5. Recipe created by champion pitmaster, Chris Lilly, on behalf of Kingsford® charcoal.
