Max

Without much to write about these says, I'll post a few pictures of Max for those of you who are not on Facebook. The little fella is doing great and told me yestereday in baby talk that he can't wait to see all of you out on the BBQ trail this year!

Finally, Cooking Again

Tomorrow, I'm finally breaking out the Backwoods tomorrow to do a little BBQing. Sheila is going away tomorrow and Sunday, going to Florida on business (poor baby) so I will be hunkered down with Max all weekend. Hopefully he will be doing better, he came home from day care yesterday with a 104 fever, so the last day or so has been real rough. He's doing better though, but I've heard enough screaming for the time being.

Next weekend is my brother Cristiaan's engagement party. I'm cooking the pulled pork, and decided smoke it this weekend and hold it for the party. I have done this a few times before, and it has always turned out great. Doing four butts.

I also picked up a few beef short ribs to throw in the smoker for me to have for dinner tomorrow. When it is all done, I'll try to post some pictures. Hopefully, I'll be able to find our camera, which is currently MIA....

Max Attends His First BBQ Contest

Max attended his first BBQ contest this past weekend in New Paltz, and was clearly the rock star of the weekend. Everyone, especially the girls, enjoyed meeting our little guy!

Thanks to Kris of Lakeside Smokers, who watched Max during the grilling contest Saturday and muchof the weekend. It was greatly appreciated!
