It was a nice balmy 55 degrees yesterday (that's 12.777 for you primitives that don't use real measurements) so I wanted to do something outside. Have an incredible view from the back of the volcano Mount Redoubt across the inlet, and thought maybe I would get a few pictures of it. Turns out the only camera I own is on my cell phone. Crappy quality, plus the volcano was obscured by clouds.
So then I figured what the hell, crappy camera, why not find some indistinct objects and make some Bigfoot evidence?
Started digging through the storage shed for burlap sacks, dark tarps, or anything else I could drape over a limb or stump in the woods when I realized I was hungry. Wandered back inside to see that the ol' lady had set out a couple of chicken quarters. Knowing that she would probably do something healthy with them if left to her own devices, I took 'em out to the offset smoker. Fired the smoker up with mesquite, & went inside for some tea.
Got to thinking about then that man, whole lotta space on that smoker. Be a shame for it to go to waste. So I poked around in the freezer & found more chicken. Put it on the center of the smoker to thaw it out. Still a lotta room left. Next trip found a couple of sirloins. Started thawing them out too...
By nine in the evening I had piled up 10 leg quarters, 4 steaks, 2 salmon filets, 6 burgers, & a dozen smoked sausages.
Bored with food and a grill never ends well for me.
