Eunice is named for Chef Leonards’ Louisiana hometown, where he grew up on a rice farm. He calls Eunice, his first Houston restaurant after years working both overseas and in New Orleans, “a modern Creole-style brasserie.” At home, Leonards cooks these ribs on a covered grill with pieces of oak and pecan wood, but this oven version is a nice option for cooler weather.
