What are you cooking up over Labor Day weekend?


Recommended Posts

End of summer, looks like nice weather, what are you going to be cooking up over the weekend?

Sat I'm doing some beef shish-ka bobs on the grill (need to get it marinating tonight!) and Monday I'm doing a turkey breast that I bought on sale last spring, dug it out to thaw this morning. Will probably do something in foil to go with it, either potatoes and onions or cabbage.

What are you cooking up?

Oh, havin a little party at the house on Sunday and gonna grill up some chicken, steaks, chops, corn, shrooms and onions. If it from the grill this weekend, I don't know if I really want it. Unless it comes from the cooler and it has "Lite" written all over it.

Grilling steak butterflied and stuffed with mushrooms, onions, and some sort of high temp swiss cheese that doesn't melt off in the grilling process. Held together with toothpicks in a way that gives it a canoe shape.

We're gonna live it up big time (for us anyway) bought some 10oz lobster tails, 2lbs King crab legs, and a couple of t-bones, along with some home made chedder biscuits and a half dozen sweet corn, I tell ya, if that isn't livin I don't know what is! Oh yeah, forget to mention the ice cold High Lifes and Bud Lights!

Still cheaper than going out for an average meal!!

We kept it simple. Walleye, perch and marinated chicken with some "heart attack" potatoes (3 cheeses, bacon etc) Did a simple beer batter with some Goose Island 312 beer, tasty, and added Panko Bread crumbs on about half the fish. Very tasty. I would highly recommend Panko Bread crumbs, expensive but tasty.

Friday morning we headed to Memory Lane in Gilbert for breakfast, then spent the afternoon doing some Geocaching in the area and back to camp for beer butt chicken, dressing and pineapple upside down cake (made in the Dutch Oven). Saturday we had breakfast burrito's and spent the day fishing and visiting with friends. Supper time came and it was Hobos, green beans and apple cobbler (made in the DO) with ice cream. Sunday morning started with "sticky buns" (made in the DO) and 2 different kinds of egg bake. We spent the afternoon 4-wheeling, both in the mine country and the ORV park and got back just in time for beef and chicken Sish-Ka-Bobs and cheesy potaoes (from the DO). Monday for our final meal it was thick sliced french toast and thick sliced bacon from pigs that I raised. By 1:00 we were all packed and saying goodbyes and headed home. What a great weekend, super weather and friends!!

    • Sorry to hear that Duff. Will give my GSP's an extra scratch behind the ear for you guys today
    • Aw, man, sorry to hear that.  Shed some tears and remember her well.  They all take a piece of our hearts with them; some more than others.
    • yes sorry for your loss..  our dogs are always special...
    • Truly sorry to hear that duffman! I know that feeling.  Keep the good memories  
    • Chamois passed away this weekend a couple days short of her 13th bday. What a great dog to hang out with here at home and on distant adventures. Gonna miss ya big time my little big girl.
    • Sounds pretty sweet, alright. I will check them out, thanks.
    • If you really want to treat your wife (and yourself) with a remote operated trolling motor, the Minn Kota Ulterra is about easy as it gets.  Auto stow and deploy is pretty awesome.  You just have to turn the motor on when you go out and that the last time you have to touch it.   24V 80lb.  60 inch shaft is probably the right length for your boat.  They ain’t cheap - about $3k - but neither one of you would have to leave your seat to use it all day.
    • Wanderer, thanks for your reply. I do intend for it to be 24 volt, with a thrust of 70-80. Spot lock is a must (my wife is looking forward to not being the anchor person any more).  With my old boat we did quite a lot of pulling shad raps and hot n tots, using the trolling motor. Unlikely that we will fish in whitecaps, did plenty of that when I was younger. I also need a wireless remote, not going back to a foot pedal. We do a fair amount of bobber fishing. I don't think I will bother with a depth finder on the trolling motor. I am leaning toward moving my Garmin depth finder from my old boat to the new one, just because I am so used to it and it works well for me. I am 70 years old and kinda set in my ways...
    • Dang, new content and now answers.   First, congrats on the new boat!   My recommendation is to get the most thrust you can in 24V, assuming a boat that size isn’t running 36V.  80 might be tops?  I’m partial to MinnKota.     How do you plan to use the trolling motor is an important question too.     All weather or just nice weather?   Casting a lot or bait dragging?   Bobber or panfish fishing?   Spot lock?  Networked with depth finders?  What brand of depth finders?
