    First weekend of summer.

    C'mon guys! What you got planned for the weekend?

    Tonight -chicken on the grill! Secret rub is setting in now. Gonna do some with just the rub, some with Baby Ray's bbq sauce.

    And if you've never tried it - grill up some tatertots - brushed with olive oil first, then over high heat for about 10 minutes.

    Just picked some fresh tomatoes and cucumber that I'll dice and chill as a side dish with some fresh basil and dill - drizzled with olive oil and balsamic vinegar.

    The big decision - what wine to pick??? Such stress.....:cheesygrin:

    Ribs were on the grill, could have used a bit more smoke but came out nice and tender.

    ...we grilled burgers last night in NH. Pretty plain-vanilla, but made from excellent local (MA) beef and over hickory smoke, they were superb.

    Plus, they looked great! ;-) (actually, this photo's from last summer; I snapped a couple last night but it was hazy/overcast and I haven't uploaded yet...)

    Tonight I'm doing up Korean beef ribs (thin, bone in, marinated in Kalbi sauce), chilled macaroni & spinach 'salad', and grilled brussel sprouts.

    And a nice CA cab.

    It's the last 'official' weekend of summer....Labor Day weekend.

    What you got planned for the long holiday weekend?

    I'm going to do up some fresh brauts tonight from my specialty butcher.

    They are plumping in a pot of water, beer, minced garlic and green onion right now.

    Then they go onto the grill to be crisped and browned.

    From the garden I have a fresh yellow zucchini that I'll slice into wedges, drizzle with olive oil and garlic salt then brown on the grill with the brauts.

    Served with sides of fries, baked beans and a cold beer.

    Well I have been eating practically vegetarian for the last week in preparation for my he-man opening days of dove hunting in San Antonio....a walking heart attack

    I will be meeting several of my old friends for our annual dove hunt going on 25+ years, and its a meat eating smorgasbord.

    I have prepared for tomorrow evening 4 dozen trimmed marinated teal breast wrapped in bacon with jalapeno w/ aside of venison pork jalapeno sausage over pecan smoke fingered right off the grill...this will include your favorite beverage (BEER).

    This will go on through Tuesday night with a variety meats through the days...will return being a vegetarian when I return home.

    I think I need a towel to wipe off my keyboard as I just drooled all over it.....

    I will slink back to my simple brauts and genuflect in abject humble admiration of the feast you just described....:cheesygrin:

    I thought I would try something I hadn't tried before. I had a couple of chuck roasts in the freezer and it was time to use them or loose them. So I thawed them out and made up dry rub for them. Then I slow cooked them over indirect heat at about 275° for 6 hours. I used a mixture of lump charcoal and briquettes and a little hickory. For sides, I did potatoes and carrots in cast iron skillets on my gas grill. We were very happy with the results. The roasts were pull apart tender just like pulled pork. I'm sure this will be on the menu again.

    Today is another attempt to up my baby back rib game.

    Got a combo of hickory and maple smoke going like crazy, got the rig dialed in to 230F, the ribs are carmelizing nicely from the rub last night. Spraying periodically to keep them moist and just started the final hour of slathering on some Baby Ray's BBQ sauce.

    Looking good so far...

    The family will pass judgement in about an hour....

    The baby backs turned out really nice.

    Always getting better.

    I ask the family to be brutal and rate the ribs.

    I got a high of a 9.5 and a low of 8.25.

    I gave them a respectful 8.5.

    The choicest ribs were deliciously smoky, tender, a bit of crisp, a good combo of tug yet tender - the rub had some heat, the sauce was sweet. If I could do this over and over - I'd take it! MMmmm.....!
