Fish fry is on for Sunday. I've been meaning to get out this week and get a few fish, but the weather has been about a bad as possible for fishing. Nothing but lightening the last 3 days.

My dad and I love seafood so I'll go to the store saturday and pick up clams, scallops, crab legs, and mussels...

A standard steam on the clams. Pan sear the scallops then drizzel some sweet n sour duck sauce on em finished with some crumbled bacon. Steam the legs. And the mussels I'll steam in some white wine, water, butter, and garlic.

Add some sweet corn and maybe a grilled romaine salad topped with balsamic, dried cranberrys, bacon, and blue cheese to round out the meal...

So today I'm boiling up a 4 lb corned beef in Guiness beer, a hole head of garlic,a handful of peppercorns and some bay leaves. For some reason I didn't feel like messing with the smoker. It smells pretty insane in here.

The Cub Broccoli Salad RH posted on the Salad Thread will sit next to the Ruebens tonight. So anyway.....

While I'm at Corborns (Mora) gettin the broccoli and some other fixins, I find they have a Managers Special on fresh, all natural Babybacks for 2.99 lb. I haven't looked yet, but I think the silver skin has been pulled (bonus). If I hadn't bought so many St. Louis cuts when they were 1.97, I would have loaded up. Anyway, Smoked BBs for Fathers Day thanks to my favoite store.

It was the only day we could have Dylan's grad party so I am smoking up some pork butt for pulled pork. Also going to smoke some salmon for spread on Ritz crackers. Going to whip up some Cole slaw for the puled pork as well. The other stuff is the wifes department

Like the sounds of a nice cold gin and tonic along with a steak!!!

[MN Mike]

I'm in charge of Ribs in the smoker and whole chickens, brats and hotdogs on the grill.

Leg of lamb, of course.

[Eric Wettschreck]

Bacon and Pabst Blue Ribbon.

[Dark Cloud]

Its not PBR and bacon but the first batch of fresh fruit margaritas just got poured...

Mix a batch of lemonade and add black cherries, pineapple, strawberries, lemon, and lime...

Kids and pregnant people get that over ice. The rest get 3/4ths that and 1/4 sweet n sour mix and some distilled blue agave nectar...

I just finished a couple of turkey tenderloins, some parboiled sliced potatoes and sliced zucchini on the BGE. I put a rub on the turkey and served it with a mustard-sage-garlic sauce. I oiled the potatoes and zucchini and sprinkled them with Penzey's spices. It was easy and tasty if I do say so myself. The wife wanted wine so we opened a bottle of red and split it...

My daughter provided all the fixins for shish kabobs. Marianated the meat herself last night and had everything ready to skewer when I picked her up from her moms this morning. That kid is totally amazing. Had my dad over for Father's Day. What a feast. Kabobs, corn on the cob on the grill, new potatoes and then vanilla ice cream with blackberries on it. Summer is here!

Smoked some BBs and at the last minute saw this glaze in Sundays Star Tribune. I had everything (including maple syrup my brother made). They had a rub recipe, but I just used what I always do. It was fantastic and my daughter liked them better than the usual barbacue sauce:

For the maple glaze:

• 1 c. real maple syrup

• 3 tbsp. ketchup

• 2 tbsp. Worcestershire sauce

• 1 tbsp. Dijon mustard

• 1 tbsp. cider vinegar

• 1 tbsp. prepared horseradish

• 1/2 c. maple sugar or turbinado sugar

Directions

To make the glaze: Place maple syrup, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, vinegar and horseradish in a nonreactive saucepan. Bring to boil over high heat, whisking to mix. Reduce heat to medium and let glaze simmer gently until thick and syrupy, 3 to 5 minutes, whisking. Set aside.

I glazed at the two hour point prior to foiling. Two hours later glazed unfoiled for 30 min, then glazed again for 30 min.

Just before serving, brush ribs once more on both sides with maple glaze and moved ribs directly over to the grill until glaze is browned and caramelized, 1 to 3 minutes per side.

thanks Leaky! i'll give this glaze a try. remember, cubs has baby backs on sale with a coupon [limit 4] for 2.99 lb. this week. good luck.

[Leaky]

Love $2.99 BBs. I need to get me a larger freezer.

80 sunfish fillets beer battered and deep fried along with corn on the cob and a pasta/tuna fish salad the MIL made plus lots of beers. : ) Fried them up in my new dutch oven on a camp stove on the patio. Good stuff. Happy belated Father's Day to everyone. The best part was I caught the fish with my two kids three weeks beforehand and they are super excited to go fishing all the time now. We live on the lake and constantly have the trinity of crawlers, leeches and waxworms in the fridge along with shiners and suckers in the bait bucket off the dock. I get informed when we're out of bait when I get home from work this Summer!
