Whats Cooking, Who Is Where, Off The Subject & Memories

We're staying in Lajitas, Maverick Ranch. 

Another fine day in Big Bend. We did the Old Ore Rd today and only saw one other Jeeper; I think most everyone that's been here for spring break left this morning. Maverick Ranch RV Resort is about half capacity or maybe a little less.

Jim that's only 2022 miles from us , how's the weather? Wait don't rub it in...

[elkhartjim]

Well let's see...it's 76 degrees with a nice dry breeze out of the west. Clear blue skies with a few puffy cumulus clouds. And yes, I have on shorts and a tee shirt and barefoot.🌤🤗

Joe.  You can fly into Dallas, TX.  The "Black Jack Resort Hotel" Jet has daily 90 minute flights to Lajitas, TX.  You can Google Resort. They have Jeeps for rent.

Here, in the hill country it was p/c, 84, 15 to 25 winds out off the West.

[elkhartjim]

We're under red flag wind warnings today here in Big Bend. It would have been a good travel day for us (fuel mileage wise) with wind out of the west, sure as heck the wind will turn out of the east when we head home.

Ham and potatoes over fire, turkey Brest in smoker, green beans on stove top, Mac-n-cheese next in line for smoker, deviled eggs in refrigerator. Got enough leftovers for the week!!

To all my friends that live in the computer, Happy Easter. I hope none of you hid your own Easter eggs unless you had young people to help you recover them.

[manholt]

Numbered.  My understanding is that #3 and #17 was still lost, as of 8:30 pm!  Thankfully in another family yard..

Wayne, I'm slowly meeting the "Computer" friends!  Hope you all had a beautiful Sunday & no missing eggs!

[jleamont]

Yum...

About time we get some real BBQ in PA!

[elkhartjim]

Ok Joe, what is all that stuff on the plate?? I don't see anything that resembles barbecue. 🤷‍♂️

[manholt]

Jim S.  Looks like a cross between Chinese, Korean and Mexican!  Bet even a pig would turn up it's snout on that mess!  Be afraid and run, don't walk away!  I think it's in Ohio that they love sweet chili and beans, on top of spaghetti, so PA.?

[jleamont]

Smoked brisket, rice with black beans and queso, coleslaw and corn bread. It was good!

nothing sweet, that's what's odd for around here. 

[wayne77590]

That doesn't even come close to good BBQ!👹

[elkhartjim]

I hope you get some real barbecue someday. Sides for barbecue would be potato 🥔 salad, pinto beans, maybe cole slaw with sliced onions, jalapeño peppers, dill pickles and a few slices of white bread. This should be washed down with a Shiner Bock .

[jleamont]

Maybe in June...Carl?

thats as good as it gets around here unless you want high fructose corn syrup on a slab of meat that resembles Brisket. Yeah it's that bad in PA.

Yes that sounds good. Add some jalapeño peppers stuffed (your pick) with brisket, chicken. cheese, chunks of shrimp, wrapped with bacon. One  thing I had in the east was bbq smoked with pine. Was not my fav.

I have never done lobster on the grill but Sea Bass fillets and little neck clams over applewood is not to bad.

Oooo! Lobster on the grill. Really good. My mouth is watering.
