Just had to do that, lbbg.   

 

And a savory little squab it was...just like Thanksgiving in March. Figgered I'd better mount a two-handed attack.

NICE REB, awesome looking grub!!!! Sawing logs in no time..

[RebelSS]

That was plate #1.... I lost control.....!!  I usually try to do some activity after supper, but....... *snork*

[lovebigbluegills]

Looks great Reb!!!! And one fork on each side to mess with the fork police!!! Nice!!!!!!!

[reinhard1]

Nice plate Reb!!!  Two forks are better than one.  good luck.

[leechlake]

chopsticks are always an option to supplement the dual fork technique.  They can also be used as a toothpick if your dental work isn't up to date.

Nice day to grill. Used a little pear wood again for extra smoke. Lamburgers with steak rub (thanks RH!) and finished with a mango-pineapple glaze. Had Mrs. Gerry's steakhouse potato salad and the jello w/fresh strawberries I slaved over this morning between tasks. Aronia berry (black chokeberry) bars for dessert courtesy of Auntie Mar Mar that were outstanding. She got the berries from someone at work and we happen to have a row about 100' long so will be adding them to the food list. Busy day pruning trees, lambing, moving ewes with lambs, fixing fence,  stuffing envelopes, etc., so no place setting in order to evade the dreaded fork police. Some days it's more like a work camp than a household here so sneaking off to have a couple brews while grilling is as close as I get to a break. Note pastoral rural scene.

the fork police has given up on that.  I do always like that Reb is drinking his milk with his photos whether it's a dual fork, single fork, cafeteria spork...whatever.

I gathered the family and forced them to go to Fleet Farm today.  Not a short task with a 15 and 17 year old but I just pulled the dad card and made them go.  We had a blast, laughed a ton, and bought candy and dog toys.  To top it off we then went to Costco and had late lunch and dinked around there too.  

At Costco we bough one item a $9.99 apple pie.  Son pitched the receipt before we went out the door and my wife saw him throw it in the garbage.  I told them not to fear because I would handle the check out police.  She shut me down!  I told her I wasn't going to dig through the garbage and then I didn't want to cause a scene and wandered away and found an employee that felt my pain and he ushered us out of the store with a super nice attitude.  Oh well, it only added to a fun few stupid hours with the wife and youth.

I bet that gal at the door puts her fork on the right of the plate.

I guess the 12 burgers will work out well.  Are you really Mike Brady and have "The Bunch" to feed?

[delcecchi]

You are lucky she didn't put the fork where the sun don't shine.

Actually I thawed out 3 lbs. worth as we were expecting one more person (there were 3 of us) and I sent 4 burgers home with Mar Mar for her and her hubby. They love lamb but get it infrequently. Was tempted to try the burger press today but would've interrupted a female gab session to get at it as well as triggering the ensuing 20 questions so I opted not to. 

[leechlake]

Veteran move Dotch. I'm impressed.  Younger man would have found himself under the bright lights of the female interrogation.

After 32 years I think I might be startin' to get the hang of this marriage thing!

[Dotch]

Fork in major power position, what doncha like about that? 

[lovebigbluegills]

What's not to like?

[lovebigbluegills]

If I would've been thinking at the moment, I would have had a fork on each side of the plate also, 3 total, to really screw with the 5-0.

[eyeguy 54]

pieces of eyes, eggs and a little sumac tea. good stuff 

[lovebigbluegills]

Looks great Eyeguy!!! Dandy start to the day!!!

[lovebigbluegills]

Fresh eggs, fresh bacon, and toast for supper.

 

[eyeguy 54]

no fresh toast???  

[RebelSS]

All looks great guys. Love that spatula, Dotch! Now, if ya had a cow platter to pile those burgers on , it would complement that pastoral scene. It's the cows, ya know....

[leechlake]

Put a 4 pound pork butt in Smomer at around 1030 this morning and added pellets and never opened the door or looked until 6pm.  Took it out and it was 201 degrees.  The temp probe went in like it was butter.  Resting for a while and making some deep fried potato chips I've been perfecting.  EZPZ.
