New Discoveries Of The Week: Cool New Things I'm Trying, Books I'm Reading, And More!

Melt-In-Your-Mouth Ribs In Minutes

This mouthwatering carnivore-esque food porn is a glimpse of a biohacked—and more importantly—a time-hacked recipe for the most delicious baby back ribs. I used many of the same biohacking and molecular gastronomy techniques that I teach within the pages of the Boundless Cookbook for this recipe.

This unique recipe is an easy way to create melt-in-your-mouth ribs in a fraction of the usual cooking time.

Here's how I prepared these bad boys:

  • Trim the silver skin off the back of the ribs. This part is optional, but you’ll get better texture/cook. I get my ribs from US Wellness Meats (save 15% with code BEN).
  • Rub them down with your favorite rub. In this case, I used turmeric, sea salt, black pepper, and Ceylon cinnamon.
  • After rubbing them down generously, drench them in your favorite sauce—I used Primal Kitchen's dijon mustard and mango jalapeno BBQ sauce—or any other marinade of your choice. (Save 10% on Primal Kitchen with code BEN.)
  • Throw them on the Traeger Grill or any smoker to smoke at 165°F (I used the pecan pellets for this one). This step isn't 100% necessary but gives you that authentic grill taste.
  • Add bone broth to your pressure cooker, line your smoked ribs on the inside of the pot, and cook for 30 minutes.
  • Finish them off by drizzling them with extra sauce, then broiling them in the oven for 5-8 minutes to get perfect caramelization.

And voila!—the most tender baby back ribs—as if I had left them on the grill for over 6 hours, but instead the pressure cooker does it in 30 minutes. Try it and let me know what you think! Also, what’s your favorite kitchen “tool” or time-saving hack these days?

The Wildest Pre-Workout Performance Biohack

Back in July, I told you all about a crazy, cutting-edge technology that allowed me to drink my own (from-a-younger-self) stem cells.

This mind-blowing experiment was a result of a podcast with Anton Fedorendko, the creator of Infopathy. Infopathy is an online platform through which you can download imprints from various substances, allowing you to turn a glass of water into an entirely natural remedy—shifting your brainwaves into states that mimic what pharmaceuticals or supplements would do and stimulating your body's own healing.

A membership to Infopathy allows you access to their entire library, giving you the ability to pick signals that have specific healing properties—there are hundreds of signals that benefit your digestive system, energy production, mental health, and many, many more.

Stem cells—undifferentiated cells capable of giving rise to indefinitely more cells—are a powerful repair system for the body. The imprint of the stem cells that I had extracted when I was a sprightly 30-year-old is already available in Infopathy's library to download and drink up. Recently, Anton reached out to me after I posted an Instagram story about my pre-workout mix that went kinda viral. Members had contacted him asking if my formula could be available as a signal, and Anton got to work. This exclusive imprint includes NAT Pure Therapeutic ketones (a keto supplement), Essential Amino Acids, Sodium Bicarbonate, Energizer for Athletes (containing caffeine, green tea, and guarana extract), and Creatine. Now anyone can take advantage of this mix for potent workout-optimizing results.

You can learn more about Infopathy and check out my customized pre-workout signal here.

Product Of The Week

::: Save 25% On Natural, Nutrient-Rich Skincare :::

My friend Andy Hnilo is lucky to be alive. In 2011, he was struck by two SUVs, suffering multiple severe injuries including major facial swelling, abrasions, and scars.

As a model and actor, Andy's appearance affected his livelihood. He was recommended plenty of products to help heal his skin, but they were laden with chemicals known to disrupt hormones and lead to other negative health consequences.

Determined to avoid toxic ingredients, Andy began to use himself as the subject of his own science experiment, sourcing safe, nutrient-dense ingredients from all over the world and paying close attention to their synergy in various combinations. The result was Alitura—a mineral-rich, superfood regenerative “meal” for the skin.

Soon after a regular regimen of his products, Andy's face was completely healed and he was back on the runway. What started in the kitchen of a studio apartment led to 17 products winning four awards and serving customers in 87 countries a little more than six years later. Considering your skin is your largest organ, it's so important that the products that you use to protect and nourish it are as healthy as the food you eat.

From now until September 17th only, you can save 25% on Alitura with code BEN25.

I Want To Know What You've Got Cooking

I'm so stoked about the positive feedback I've been getting about my new Boundless Cookbook. The cookbook was a labor of love, but I'm really proud of the end result (especially considering I'm definitely not a trained chef).

Now that the Boundless Cookbook is available on Amazon, I have a favor to ask…

If you have the cookbook and you love it, can you hop on over to Amazon and leave a review? Amazon reviews—as I bet you know—are super important. I want your honest feedback and I'll be reading them to hear what you think.

You can leave your review on Amazon right here (and if you don't have a cookbook yet, and you're an Amazon Prime member, you could have your copy at your doorstep as early as tomorrow).
