The day after...



Yesterday was a great day. We got to spend time with my girls and watch a great football game. But...I have to re-deem myself, because my ribs were not up to par.

I under cooked them because I knew they would have to be re-heated and I didn't want them over cooked by re-heating them. It didn't work out as I had hoped.

My bad...

They weren't up to snuff, and not my best effort by any means. So I need to do better next time for Vicky and Steve. Sorry guys...

I screwed up and I will take the full blame. I should have known better. I didn't do as well as I should have...They were looking forward to some good grub and I let them down...

It won't happen again...

Weekend Report (part II)













I did some beef short ribs in the smoker while the St. Louis ribs were cooking and I had both Webers fired up for the wings. There was plenty of smoke in the air yesterday...

The beef ribs were pretty good, but I still need to work on them just a tad. They weren't as tender as I thought they could have been, but the taste was very good. That is still a work in progress...



Enjoy your day!!!

Weekend Report...



I have got my application for a KCBS judging class being taught by Lee and Bobbie McWright from Music City Pig Pals in Dickson this coming March (3-22-08).

This class will teach you everything you need to know and what to look for and if you pass, you can become a certified KCBS Judge. Sign me up...

I picked up three slabs of ribs that I'm going to cut St. Louis style and a boat load of chicken wings. There'll be smoke in the air today boys...I'm going to cook today, so I don't have to fool with it tomorrow. They can just re-heat everything and be good to go...

I'll take some pictures and post them later.

Right now, I've got to make some rub up and make some sauce and get started working my magic...





Enjoy your day!!!

Yeah for us...



Today, marks the day we were married 7 years ago. Yep, 7 years today, I had the flu and we got married...

We had set the date and I just happened to come down with a bad case of the flu. Julie wanted to wait until I was better, but I sucked it up and said "let's get 'er done." So we did...flu and all.

Happy Anniversary to us...

The weather was a little strange yesterday. Rain, sleet, snow, sleet, rain, rain, snow, sleet, (etc. well you get the idea.) Today will be cold but the weekend may be better. I hope...

I am smoking some ribs and wings to take to one of my girls and her husband (and the rest of the gang) for their Super Bowl party on Sunday. So I hope the weather will calm down a tad so I can get that done.

I don't think they would be too happy if I showed up empty handed (no ribs and wings) because of the weather. I can hear them now...

You married Julie when you had the flu, but you can't fix some ribs in a snow storm?

Suck it up bbq boy and get 'er done...

Enjoy your day!!!
