What Did You Barbecue/Cook On Labor Day 2015?

2015-09-07T14:42:33-04:00

As Labor Day 2015 is in full effect, Americans are barbecuing and cooking. Officially last summer holiday. What's your main dish today? I am barbecuing chicken, hotdogs and ribs. Side order of homemade potato salad, baked beans, macaroni and cheese. To top it off with ice-tea!...Sweet!

I can't begin to tell you how much you suck SFC Joe S. Davis Jr., MSM, DSL. I'm reading all these great posts and starting to hear my stomach scream. Hitomi and I don't do much traditional stuff anymore. She's got my cholesterol levels on a short leash. We have the typical inside grill the Japanese are famous for and I will grill up our seasoned asparagus, peppers, cabbage, and all the usual stuff that puts so much gas in me that I feel like the Hindenburg. I'd kill for a steak...lol

SFC Joe S. Davis Jr., MSM, DSL, We went yesterday to my brother-In -laws place on a river not far from here. We had BBQ jalapeño sausage, brisket, and pork ribs , with all the trimmings. He has three jet boats and two jet skis, so we played on the jet skis, and took long boat rides. Today we are recovering from yesterday. We're both whipped.

Last night went over to a friends and a mutual friend was there as well and he can cook - He grilled some flank steaks and made potato salad with pineapple. Today I grilled a bunch of hamburgers as everyone is stopping by to see our new puppy. Wife's Aunt, sister, daughter's cousins and friends in the neighborhood as well. Nice day here in Chicagoland.
