[OT] I hereby declare it to be BBQ season!

[Piratecat]

Yeah, yeah. If you live someplace warm, it's probably been bbq season for months. But up here in the frigid north, we're finally losing the last bit of snow, and it's spent the last week raining.

But it's early on a Sunday morning, I've got my bbq smoker fired up with hickory chips, and I'm spending most of the day slow-smoking a rack of pork ribs (soaked in a red wine rosemary marinade) and - for the first time - a leg of lamb, which has spent all night marinating in an amazing Mediterranean mixture of garlic, lemon juice, various herbs, and virgin olive oil. The coffee is burbling. Life is good.

Anyone want to share any bbq recipes?

Bah, it's the middle of autumn over here, and it's just about the time that the weather starts to turn cold. Six months to wait for BBQ season for me.

You've got 5-6 hours, easy, before it's done. You're flying west, so you won't lose very many hours. Come on over!

I'm of the same mind P-Kitty! Of course in the midwest (which has ALL the good stuff ) I've got steaks in a Mesquite and Lime BBQ sauce. Coffee is a goin' too!

that's not bbq

that's cooking out.

the fine art of bbq requires a nice sauce that you apply during the cooking.

i make my own. vinegar, brown sugar, mustard, tomato paste, tabasco, cumin, scallions, and secret ingredients. heated days before hand and blended.

then apply to the ribs 30 mins before they are done.

if you apply too soon, it burns. too late, it doesn't stick. (application requires a brush, you literally paint the sauce onto the ribs)

you can use the sauce for chicken also.

Your sauce sounds great. Family recipe, or your own?

I tend to use a Texas-style sauce on ribs, preferring wet ribs to dry ribs. I changed a pretty good recipe and ended up with a sauce I love.

dude, you wasted the red wine and rosemary on the pork and left lamb with lemon juice? INFIDEL!!!!!!!!

For a good bbq, I'm all about the kabob-ables. boiling onions, slices of green pepper, elephant garlic, little cherry tomatoes, bit a shrimp maybe and all sort of lovely marinated chicken and lamb concoctions.... mmmm..... need bbq....

And of course, corn on the cob, deviled eggs and all the little extras.

That does it, once I'm in my new place (attleboro) I'm gonna hold KahunaCon. 48 hours of gaming with a bbq thrown in, and an omlet breakfast...

Trust me on this one.

When do you move? Oh, I'm running a d20 Modern game at Pandemonium later this month, if you're interested.
