I’m using Billy Bones rubs on everything today – Original on the chicken and an Original/XXX Cherry mix for the ribs. I’ll put Smack Yo Mama, Big Kahuna sauce on the chicken and I’m having a little taste test for the ribs, with two slabs dry, one with Gates Extra Hot and one with Tennessee River Cranberry Delight. Here they are headed for the smoker.
A couple of folks are bringing young teen kids and the weather is supposed to be hot, so hopefully they’ll have a good day playing in the lake and maybe we’ll get by without storms – a lake party is usually a storm magnet though.
Here’s hoping for a great get together when we get to meet some new friends and be able to put real people with words and pictures.
Oh yeah, and since we spent most of Friday prepping for today, we didn’t want to cook and just had leftovers instead.
More on the party later.

Dang Larry - if I'da known you'd be smoking stuff, I woulda took a flight up!! Hope y'all have a grand fun time. Wish I was there.
ReplyDeletePlease hurry-up and share the photos with all of us! How exciting, to have an opportunity to meet your fellow food bloggers.
ReplyDeleteHey, I recognize those ribs, lol. I have to admit Larry, I like your baby backs better than mine but they are very close. I think gates is the difference because I do a sweet sauce for Alexis and boys while I prefer a kick like yours had.
