Mother's Day

[stlbbq]

Is anyone cooking up anything special for Mother's Day this weekend? Any interesting requests from the mothers? My wife has me cooking a bunch of ribs for the family get-together. Looking forward to spending the day outside and working on it.

Not here . My sister takes over this stuff . Having whatever at my Mom's . I might get out something simple for when we get home .

Damn I wish I was. I work sundays at the family business with my cousin and another cousin of ours daughter. We might do burgers and dogs after or maybe go out haven’t heard yet. Long story short, no cooking for this guy. Just another day at the grind.

The wife wants a pulled pork samich with peach bourbon bbq sauce and home made coleslaw and dill pickles! Oh and after a day on the lake fishing……..

 

[Fueling Around]

No cooking planned.
I may get Sunday off and I will spend much of the day mowing the yard.

We are traveling to SIL where she is "grilling" for MIL. Then back to my moms to hang out for a while. Planning a big cook for Memorial Day for my folks.

I’m pretty lucky, going fishing is usually my wife’s #1 choice for the day. Will headed to the lake shortly…. Want to get the mug bug pots in the water early as well! Fingers crossed for some sun!

You are lucky. My wife enjoys fishing but not enough to spend Mother’s Day doing it! I was lucky enough though that she was fine with me going on a fly fishing trip with the guys for 4 nights earlier in the week.

The road to the launch we like finally opened 6 days ago……. See the remanent reason……

Man what a beautiful day in the lake….the water was only 39 degrees so no action, only deep trollers were getting big rainbows….we just got a relaxing day!

Going to make some kabobs for moms day. Using beef, peppers, onions, and zukes. My youngest is dropping by to help put the mower deck on the John Deere.

 

[Inscrutable]

Us two plus daughter’s family over today. Will have both the RecTeq and Weber going.
Ribs, thighs, and wings.
Roasted potato wedges, grilled asparagus, corn on the cob.
Ice cream with cloned Friendly’s peanut butter sauce.

Nope. I cooked up a mushrooms/chopped chicken thighs/onions/garlic and Trader Giotto's gnocchi dish last night with plenty of leftovers.

But, Happy Mother's Day to those who've earned such a blessed title.

I went the easy way, took wife out to eat.

You’re a smarter man … 3 proteins (with multiple rubs and sauces) and 3 sides was a bit much without a sous chef (Although I think I saw Michael Symon do that once on Iron Chef).
But a good time nonetheless with wife, daughter, and grandkids.
I‘ll tackle Mt Dishmore tomorrow.
