Sliders two ways- Surf & turf and the "wafflebum classic" as it's now called.

Grind was short rib,brisket,sirloin. sourdough buns. bbq sauce simmered with some pureed mango. Local bacon on the classic.Grilled avocado,local cheddar. Fresh gulf shrimp on the Surf & turf. Marinade for shrimp was fresh garlic,ginger,smoked hot paprika,lemon zest,rice vinegar,soy,and a fresh serrano from my pepper patch.

Start with some of my own homegrown shiitakes-

Sauteed in bacon fat with shallots, fresh garlic and fresh rosemary-

Burger action-

Just some simple beef ribs for my little bbq entry, spent there time in the old weber kettle, snake method, yellow box and cherry wood, some meatchurch rub. Perfect. Crappy iPhone pics, the sun goes down way to early at the moment

Beef ribs look outstanding my brother from another!

Beautiful sliders FPB, tell the truth...you could not get your mouth around those

A BEEF salad!

Booma - Nice, intense, saturated smoke ring ... is that pepper jelly, too? ...

WB - Holy shit those sliders look good. Never have seen shrooms and shallot look so good. Really nice pictures, too - which always help (me). Wow.

Well, *I* love it. The cook on the steak is exactly how I like it for a salad, too. Very appetizing.

Ozzy - nice plate of eggs ... and nice plate.

Time to get started, first a snack.

Babybacks are on the smoker.

Phil · May 25, 2015

Can I play?

My humble contribution.

BBQ beans and grilled C.O.T.C. coming later. Meat's on the smoker now for slow cooking before putting it on direct heat for the skin char the wife loves.

Wow. Look at those ...

I'm kind of a weird - dramatic pause for your enjoyment - about foods that get my fingers messy/sticky ...

If I'm going to eat some wings, that's the texture and finish that I prefer ...

I also like the taste of a little charring in my grilled food, so you're in there, too.

Those are one of my favorite thing's that you've posted ...

The nice lawn, adds to it all.

JayT · May 25, 2015

One hour in, babybacks are doing good things, time to chuck the boneless Korean beef short ribs on there, add some more wood and charcoal and get another beer.

grantmichaels · May 25, 2015

Always like to see Phil's feet ...

No matter how much we'd like to differentiate ourselves, in some ways we're all the same.

Phil · May 25, 2015

lol! I didn't notice I had them dogs in there until after it was posted.

Eyes up, mister... look at my chicken instead.

I don't look for Jesus often, but when I do, I look in Phil's posts.
