The fresh from the ground Idaho Baker…....a True Gem!!!

[civilsmoker]

So this is the story of one of the true gems of Idaho...... The fresh from the ground Idaho baker!!!!

First you got to start with some Idaho meat sticks smoked at 265 for 3 hours.....

Next, some fresh picked celebrity's reddened and watered from the water from a Idaho mountain lake supplied by the surrounding mountains and crystalized white water particles waiting to impart magic to a home garden...... to then have its results sliced with care from a hand crafted knife.....

With the sidelines full, watching and waiting for the oil rubbed and sea salt crusted root gems to developed that roasted crust and tender moist inside.....

After 75 mins of 425 convection roasting air, the gem sits proud and ready to serve its whole purpose!!!!!!

This gem is so proud and sure of its own status that he knows that the side of the plate is no place to hang out!!! The only place to be is center stage!!!!!

Now this is the definition of an Idaho Gem!!!!

Its hard to explain how full of flavor a Idaho baker is when it was taken from the ground only 3 days prior........ The pictures only impart a glimpse of the magic that this Gem willing gives to those that partake!!!!

The final words to this tribute is that the simple things of life can and do bring great joy to those that choose to search that joy out!!!
