Well I did it again and disappeared for months (a year?!) - sorry y'all. Life has been lifeing lately and with two kids, a demanding career, and a couple of other hobbies I went ahead and fell off the map...again.

My son turns 8 next Saturday, hard to believe. He's requested a pool party, same as last year. In the age of over the top kids parties at excessively curated and structured (and EXPENSIVE) locations, wouldn't you know it - he loved his pool party last year and his friends said it was the best party of the year. Just a bunch of boys acting like fools, having a blast swimming.

Anyway, we'll make the kids smash burgers, pulled pork sandwiches for the adults. Ran the smoker yesterday for that pork and decided to throw a rack on for our dinner.

No pictures of the finished PP, but it's with the SMF rub and will be finished with JJ's finishing sauce (RIP) on Saturday. Wound up with 7.4lbs finished PP from two picnics.

The ribs are SMF rub with sweet baby ray's sauce in the end. Wound up doing a 3-2-1 wrap with butcher paper for the first time ever. I think I'm converted to that method. Best ribs I've made in years.

Hope you're all doing well and thanks for reading.

Happy Birthday! Come on to Orlando and I’ll smoke a rack for you 🤣
 
Was wondering about you. Epic events are very time consuming.
My kids loved pool parties in their younger years. We had an "in" at a local motel so got them for no cost.

The kids went strong for 7 hours in the pool and a couple of the families stuck around after, we made more of a dent in the beer than I thought we would, zero complaints!

Quick photo of the tray and my sandwich mid party yesterday.

Hah hah thank you. We’ve still got about 3 lbs left over after yesterday, so we could use some help. Had the neighbors who lent us some tables and chairs over for lunch today as a thank you and a “please help us”.
