It's going to be a beautiful weekend in Illinois. I just put two pork shoulders and two beef briskets on the smoker. Now I just have to stay sober and keep the smoker at 200 degrees for the next 12-16 hours. I'm not sure what it is, but when I light the smoker, it just seems like the beer goes down better. Have a great weekend.

Right back at ya! Man, you Illinois Axiom owners are growing fast. Come on Iowa, we need to pick up the pace. At least we have SonicFox, Yessss Yep, it is going to be a hot one over in Des Moines. Going to get the grill fired up, put on some brats and burgers, and crack open a bunch of cold ones.

Started off the grilling yesterday with a couple of brats. Sadly, no beer to go with. Instead went with a gin and tonic, but that's not really a manly drink, so we'll pretend I didn't say that. I did put it in a pint glass, though!

SQ is right, it is a toasty weekend here near Des Moines. I grill out on a regular basis all year round, so we don't go crazy on Memorial Day weekend (plus we are usually out of town, but this year we aren't) so I am a little unprepared. I've got the family and I scheduled to work on clearing out the current "dumping ground" in our basement on the part that isn't finished so that I can turn that into v3.0 of my home theater. Once that is done, I think I'll run to the store to get brats and burgers. Maybe something a bit nicer for Monday.
I need to learn how to do ribs... I love just about anything with any form of dry rub or barbeque on it.

LOL, In SO. Calif. that is considered a manly drink

Bass is one of my favorite. Since moving to IL I have also started drinking a local brew called Goose Island Pale Ale and IPA. Both very tasty when I don't have any home brew around.

Ribs are great and easy to cook if you can control your temp. The hardest part is preparing them by taking off the membrane that is on the inside. I use a pair of catfish pliers and pull like hell. After that use a good dry rub and smoke 6-8 hours at 200 degrees. They fall right off the bone! Dam my mouth is watering again.

At least I didn't use a curly straw and add an umbrella.

I was wondering how it could be a great weekend in Illinois with the way the Cubbies are playing. Then saw you moved there. I don't know if my stomach will take anything spicy this weekend after yesterday's debacle against the Braves. Enjoy the weather at least!! Guy (Former Illinoisan, Always Cubby Fan)
