Grillin'

[MBGreen]

I'm really excited for BBQing. We moved into a new place back in December and I finally got my gas grill Monday night. My charcoal grill w/side smoker is in the box in my living room now, just waiting for daddy to assemble it.

Tell Daddy to hurry up and assemble it....you're missing out

Would've done it yesterday. Had big Fourth dreams of grilling, but we wound up having to put our oldest cat to sleep. Wasn't much in the mood once we got home.

Thanks. He had a good life. Just a few weeks shy of 21, so we had him longer than any right to be.

This weekend's grill will be in honor of Jaguar. RIP buddy.

Oh no!
So sorry. We're "dog people" in my house (wife allergic to cats) but have experienced similar sorrow over the years. I've mourned my most recent dog's passing more than my own grandparents.

As a kid, though, my family had cats. My cat Rusty would sleep on my bed every night and was the pet we had the longest.
20+ is fantastic; Jaguar had an awesome, long life!

I hope our cat lasts 20+ years...RIP Jaguar

Thanks guys, much appreciated (and sorry to hear of your loss!). It's amazing how our fur babies become integral members of the family. I mentioned somewhere else on the board that when I die my kids are gonna find a lot more pics of the cats than they will of themselves on my phone.

Don't want to keep derailing the thread though. It's grilling season!

Sincere condolences.  R.I.P. Jaguar

Up at 445am this morning...smoking a pork butt for pulled pork tonight.

10 hour cook (roughly)

Used a pecan/cherry rub. Spritzing every 1-2 hours with mixture of apple cider vinegar, water and apple juice.

Lump charcoal with oak and cherrywood chunks.

I grilled pork chops for breakfast while making hot sauce on the side burner, then I'm going to spend the afternoon in the pool drinking beer and watching ribs slow cook. Today is all about the grill.
