Decided on a chuck eye with garlic mashed potatoes and pickled beets.

 

 

With the fork at the power position! And Beets!  Yes!  

[reinhard1]

I like it all.  Chuck eye's are my favorite steaks, and I like the beets also.  good luck.

[bobberineyes]

That's an awesome meal lbbg, fork is in the power mode, all LL  needs to do is spin the plate for his proper placement ...I like it.

[reinhard1]

Spicy venison polish and ABT sausage in my German kraut last night.  good luck.

 

[lovebigbluegills]

suffering tonight

[Dotch]

Same here.

New batch of lamb so had to try it out. Another long day in the lambing barn so grilling is kinda catch as catch can. No time to get fancy so just Roasted Herb and Garlic as a seasoning while waiting for the coals to get grayed off. Tasted pretty good nonetheless. Used some of the recently pruned apple wood (6" x 1/2" diameter) for a little additional smoke flavor. It must be also be an aphrodisiac the way Mrs. Cheviot was after me! Luckily she consumed enough food so she faded quickly. Medium rare, perfect for me. Mrs. Gerry's tater salad in the upper right. And lookie what's in the upper left corner of the plate! In honor of Reb's recent promotion of course. 

Ready to come off...

Ready to eat after a long day of farting around...

To quote LL, it is bomb!  If you're ever this direction we can certainly change that.

Dotch-

one thing we haven't covered in the sheep world is what age is a lamb not a lamb anymore, age wise?  Also what age do the lambs meet the freezer?

Once they reach a year of age, they're no longer considered lambs. When lambs turn the corner to their yearling year, they drop their front teeth and the lambs teeth are replaced with two larger yearling teeth. They're called yearlings at that point. You can tell by examining the mouth.

It doesn't necessarily mean the meat turns into a pumpkin however as long as it's a ewe or a wether. Some breeds, in particular Cheviots can be well into their yearling year with no adverse effect on the meat. Some of the club lambs that some show well into their yearling year, not so much. I won't get into the ethics of their existence but the way they're raised, a soccer ball would be more tender and have better flavor. We like to put our lambs in the freezer at anywhere from 7 to 11 months. Not as fast as some but the end result is worth it. There is a difference.

64* degs out,,,and what's that smell? *sniff*sniff*

Just some apple-wood smokin' wings....

All seasoned and ready to sauce up...

Ready to go! Grab the blue cheese dippin' sauce!!! 

 

[Dotch]

Sure. Make wings and don't invite the rest of us! No green beans?  

[bobberineyes]

Sure is nice out, cloudy but comfy.  Looking good reb, nice dance floor on the deck, the weber out there all by herself.  

[RebelSS]

Bobber, couple weeks, and the gas Weber will be out there, the smoker, the tables, chairs, umbrella, lounger, etc. All tucked away down in the rec room. Keeps the stuff looking like new. Still March, we'll have snow again. Dotch, that has been used for a dance floor a few Summer nites.......I wouldn't touch a *CENSORED* GB if ya paid me.  However, I did pick up two more jars of pickled beets with the groceries this AM!

If you gonna be grilling on the deck with charcoal, you might consider some sort of mat under the grill.  Guy in my neighborhood burned the back off his house grilling on the deck. 

[RebelSS]

Not a bad idea, Del. I should know that, after all those years of fire safety inspections.....  I was out there in a chair the whole time, though. Hose 12' away from me. But, still a good idea. Put way too much work into building that deck to burn it up. Those are all "real 2" x 6" brown treated decking, not the thin little decking "boards" they use now.

This time you were watching....   Next time you could doze or the neighbor lady could be out in her bikini or something and distract you. 

[leechlake]

he can throw a can of beets on the fire and put it out...that's all they are good for anyway.

[bobberineyes]
