Pretending it's summer

[baub]

I'm getting a little tired of the normal winter fare... soup, stew, roasts, etc. Since it was over 32 deg, I decided to fire up the smoker and do two racks of pig ribs. Made some potato salad last night. Will post more pics later.

This time I trimmed the meat more aggressively... took off the skirt meat and chin bone. Anyone have an idea what to do with the skirt meat other than grinding up? Very lean, but tough.

So while the ribs are cookin', I'm rebuilding a convector blower assy for a customer. Getting paid while cooking. I LIKE IT!

Can you drive 2000 miles in 6 hours? If you can, there is always room!

Summer will be here soon, and Florida will be so hot, you can grill directly on the sidewalk. Enjoy it now!

Summer down here just increases the sweet-tea consumption during the day. After about a year you get used to spending your days in a 120 degree attic or roof-top. You save money as you don't need a/c in your truck. You come off the roof and simply let the cool 95 degree air blow through your truck.

I have always grilled all year long, even back up in PA. I used to shovel a path to and brush the snow off the grill.

Long handled flipper in one hand and favorite brew in the other, grilling is a way of life.

I cooked on my grille last night, nice and toasty 17 degrees outside. Slap on the sweatshirt grab my beer and outside I go. I use my grille year round like some of you, dust off the snow and away we go.
