Mirepoix: yellow onion, carrot, celery, jalapeno (hotpoix). Back rib meat, turnip, roasted pepper, heirloom tomato, kohlrabi, mushroom, eggplant, BBQ sauce.
A bit of a pain cutting off the meat from the ribs, but no choice as that was the only protein available. The prepared peppers had a bit of a kick to them, but the BBQ sauce tranquilized things to an extent.
