BBQ The thin blue smoke of tastyness

Really looking forward to the 4th.
First time the whole family is gathering since the covid... no pressure...haha.

 

Yowza! You are really just looking forward to the food

 

Had 4 generations ot the family gather for the first time since Covid.. had a great time. Did not get many photos unfortunately.

 

Jim knows how to party!

 

Now THAT'S a desert selection! Nice lookin' ribs too.

 

had brisket (longhorn) over the weekend i provided the beef friends did the smoke since i have already moved my smoker to the new place. was good for sure and we only had way to much food over all for the 10 person party it was im tring to talk them into stopping by the ECG as they will be first timers if they come.

 

Here are a few recent BBQ pics.

 

The one downside of having gone vegetarian. Looks great,@Jim.

 

Oh No! no more broccilirabe and pork sammys?

 

well, it depends on who’s looking!

 

You still got it you bastid!

 

Happy 4th gents!

 

Someone must have had a real happy 4th!

 

Forgot the dessert pics.. pies a aplenty.

 

Oh lawd! Eating good in the neighborhood!

I ate some frozen chicken tenders while at work over the 4th

 

My first time smoking some real meat! Spare ribs. 5-6 hour cook on the Pit Boss. Did bout 3hrs unwrapped. Then wrapped in foil laid over a base of butter, BBQ sauce, and honey for about 1.5hrs. Then another half hr or so unwrapped again. I got impatient towards the end. But they turned out tasty. Best ribs I've had!
And all the veggies on the plate came from the garden.

 

Sweet!

 

Nice job Jason!

 

I was amazed at how juicy it was considering after the 3ish hours on the grill it looked dried out. But I was spraying it every 30 min or so with 50/50 mix of water and apple cider vinegar. Then the soak in the sauce/butter must have really done its job.
