I tried to get my ribs as good as Old Dave’s but didn’t do
too great! He had given my some pointers at the Ohio Gathering. The main
problem was they were ready way too soon and I lowered the temp to hold them
while I got the other food cooked. They were fall off the bone but still had
great flavor.
I started this am making some buttermilk ranch dressing for
over a bistro lettuce mix. Then I baked some potatoes for twice baked potatoes,
adding some sour cream, buttermilk, seasoning salt, sharp cheddar to the
filling and mashing them up. I added more cheddar to the top and reheated in
the smoker the last hour.
I sliced some chicken breast, and marinated in a little
olive oil, juice of one lemon and the Za’atar seasoning for about 3 hours. I
gilled it on my Weber Spirit. For another side I sautéed some shitake and some
baby bella mushrooms with onion and a few garlic scapes in olive oil and
butter. I did the chicken for our daughter in law.
I sliced some tomatoes and had olive oil, balsamic vinegar
and fresh Thai basil for over them.
Our daughter in law made a beautiful fruit pizza for dessert,
with a cream cheese mix, strawberries, kiwi fruit, white grapes and blue
berries. It looked like a work of art.
Every one though it was all good and we got filled up! Like
David (Dr. Holly) I had more fun staying home and cooking for the family on
Father’s Day than I would have going out to eat! When you cook for Family it
includes a little Love!
