Ribs made the plate for the second nights meal . Fall of the bone due to the wrapped re-heat , but that's OK . I like them like that too .
Toasted brioche bun and homemade pasta salad for round 2 .

I always have a couple at every house I lived at .
3 varieties in there , but the Nelly Moser is the show-off for sure .
Keeping them trimmed up this year to see if it makes a difference this fall . Supposed to bloom again , but never does . Gets to big I think .

I think they are great flowers, love having climers..At our last home before this one . I had lots of gardens, had a couple Clematis, few Honeysuckles and roses. Had a pond with a recycled brook that came back to the pond as a waterfall ( with a pump ). The whole backyard was just a big garden with paths around the brook and pond, My own greenhouse for my starting of most of my annual seeds.
It would have been cheeper to buy the plants already started , but at that time it was enjoyable fun. Plus my fruit trees , apples and plums.

Now at this place mostly just fruit trees and berry plants, kind of low maintenance now and lots of hanging flowers and big flowering shrubs.

How much sun does it need? I have a climbing rose that I planted last year that's just not doing well at all, probably because a nearby dwarf apple and a red barberry leave it with only 3 or 4 hours of sun. I'd like to have something in that spot but it can't need a lot of sun.

The roots like to be cool , but the plant itself likes more sun than shade .

Roses bush : Add banana peels around the plant, will grow like on steroids !
Had a mini rose bush grow like crazy !
Rhododendrons : Can thrive with little sun, actually like shade, not sure if it be too much sun ? bloom all summer .
Hope this helps ?

Looks good, Chop! What is “Monroe County mop?” You own special mop sauce? Need to do some ribs, got a couple racks in the freezer…

 

[chopsaw]

What is “Monroe County mop?”

Monroe county Kentucky . I think it's a pork steak thing , but I use it on ribs and pork butts sometimes .
I got it from another thread here awhile back . It 's good .

As posted ,
1/2 cup butter
2 cups white vinegar ( I use red wine vinegar )
2 TBLS black pepper
2 TBLS sugar ( I use brown sugar )
1/2 tsp red pepper
1 TBLS hot sauce
1 TBLS salt ( I omit the salt )

Melt the butter , then add the rest and simmer .
Cool before using .

Good info. It’s interesting to see the slight regional variations on a simple thing like a mop sauce. I made Rodney Scott’s mop one time and it blew my wife’s head off (I loved it) now I only do that for my own rib rack

I agree . I started using it with the pellet grill , because the longer cooks tend to dry out the sutface from the fan running .
I tend to just make my own according to my taste , but have a few different regional ones written down .
