Summer’s almost here, surlies and surlettes.

I’m planning to host a barbecue; and actually invite people over. Post vaxxed life is good. And no; your invitation wasn’t lost in the mail. 
 

I’m already in possession of two full packer briskets, 9 racks of spare ribs, about 20 lbs of various sausages and 15-20lbs of pork butt. Still need to pick up some turkey breasts. My garage “drink fridge” is currently a small scale butcher shop. 
 

The briskets will be going on the smoker at about 9 or 10 on Friday night; then I will space everything out so that it’s all smoked and ready by about noon on Saturday. Hopefully the weather cooperates, but it wouldn’t be the first time I’ve hosted a rainy barbecue if not. 
 

What do the rest of you heathens have planned?

My garage fridge is frequently my meat-prep station for various things being stored, curing, brining, and air-drying. Always makes it smell good. 
 

I did 9 racks of ribs a few weeks ago for a crowd. Had a blast doing it. The kid at HEB mentioned he might not br able to sell me that many at a time. Told him to either call his mgr or keep scanning and shut up. His stupidity aside, all went well. 

Cheers to your holiday cooking!

Definitely need an after-action report on this one!  I’ll be at home, grilling for 2 and drinking for at least 3.

I do have a 2009 Longhorn National Champs tshirt some vendor was giving away in the Rose Bowl tailgate area that night. Maybe I’ll wear that and see if anyone notices 🤔

Lots cabs and merlots for the ladies.  Dudes will be drankin bourbons and beers. I snagged a Blantons at my local store this morning. Games and dominoes will ensue.

Been looking forward to this for a long ass time.

That's so cute you think there's anything 'exclusive' in Ohio.

Brisket has been on the smoker since 5:30 AM.  Ribs will go on around 11 or 12.  I mowed the backyard  and cleaned out the pool yesterday.  Today is gonna be pretty, pretty good.

Rack of spares and a pork shoulder rubbed and dry-brining in the fridge, awaiting the WSM treatment.  Taters and cabbage washed, awaiting their respective salad and slaw treatments.  Blueberries at the ready for cobbler.

Went to a fish fry last night, ate a shit-ton of the stripers we caught at Texoma a couple of weeks ago. Sat by the fire pit and listened to music and just hung out, laughed our asses off. Had a blast.

Saw the pic and put a “d” in place of the “h”. A WTH? moment for sure.

If i got that for the mrs she wouldn't need lube.  She's got 20 cutting/serving boards and always looking out for another.

I live on N Padre Island.

If Port A was anything like today here, I pity everyone that was on the beach.

And I didn't even go to the beach.  I just drove to the IGA and it was an utter clusterfuck.

Nice. Father's day is coming up. Mind sharing where you got that so I can send a link to my wife with some strong hints?

FYI, they were resistant to cnc the longhorn bc of trademark, so I sent them a separate non-trademark that their machine couldn't work with. From there, it became a battle of wills

Made the mistake of eating frozen blueberries by hand.  Now it looks like I voted 5 times in Iraq.

Did not realize the color is soap defying.

I was surprised that there was actually no wait when we went to eat at Virginia's at about 5:30 on that Friday night. I didn't attempt to go out to eat after that so it was a pleasant experience overall.
