I can't believe we don't have a food post for the 4th....

[K2C Sooner]

One thing we always have is a "What you cooking for the holiday" type thread. So, what you cooking, grilling or going to a restaurant?

Me, steak, prime cut from Reasors. Mushrooms and onions on skewers roasted along side my steak on my charcoal grill. Corn on the cob. I have to eat this all the time before I lose my teeth. JJ. Shubbery at every meal. Fresh lettuce with Wishbone Italian dressing.

Finish it with a strawberry cake from the bakery at Reasors with a confederate flag decoration.


JJ on the flag, sort of.....

Eh, nothing really...hickory smoked burgers and brats on the Weber.
Caesars salad, twice baked taters with lots of butter topped with sharp cheddar and a splash of Italian dressing. (try it)

Lastly, washed down with some Bohemia mexican beer.

Yes, I'm waddling like Daffy, and liking it.

Baby backs on the Big Green Egg. I smoke them with a dry rub for about 3 hours, then slather a bunch of honey on them and put them in loosely wrapped foil for an hour or so until the meat pulls back from the bone. After that, I take them out of the foil, shake a little more dry rub on them and let them smoke until the honey and rub caramelizes. Yeah, they're good.

Oops, almost forgot the good part....... the SWMBO made a blueberry peach cobbler for dessert.

Just put down about half a rack of ribs I've been smoking all day on the Traeger, hickory pellets.
Corn on the cob & some garlic bread. We're taking a break before Apple crisp & vanilla ice cream.

Time for some firecracker fun before the big stuff starts about 10pm

K2C, that is a pic I took the other day coming home from Laughlin Nv.. it's about 50 miles from Barstow and about the same from Needles. it's one of the old stops along route 66. the name of the town is Amboy, it's actually in a lot of tv commercials that i've seen over the years. they still sell gas there for 5.49 a gallon if you are unlucky enough to need some! just a pretty cool stop on the Mother Road......

late to the party...we did pork tenderloin rubbed with Rudy's and garlic pepper on the Egg with a bit of Hickory. After a bit I put on a platter of zucchini and yellow squash drizzled with black truffle oil and lemon pepper. Mum and the youngest did sauteed mushrooms in butter with butter..garlic pepper and again a touch of the truffle oil. They made a fresh salad with guacamole, green and jalapeno peppers tomatoes...cilantro...etc. Rolls...and after the fireworks...homemade ice cream. Yeah...I will not need to eat for a week now.

 

[Soonersincefitty]

Black truffle oil?

My, aren't we the gourmand?

Actually that sounds pretty tasty.

 

[Schoonerman]

Pizza. No, seriously, we had pizza. Actually, we went with some friends to ATL for the fireworks, so we stopped off at our favorite pizza place and had a few cocktails before catching the fireworks! Got in, got out, had a great time.

Scratch that; I don't need a laugh that bad...
