The weather cooperated, the jihad party boys were busy burrowing tunnels, the mean queen was hunkered down to egg laying after feeding on fat children and we had a party. Smoked ham, Boston baked beans and collard greens--Southern style.
The Weber grill is great. Weened off the propane, I'm finding that it ain't barbecue if you don't have smoke and wood. The ham came out fine, smokey and the apricot-soy sauce baste was excellent.
It was a sort of test. The induction stove top worked well. It really gets hot and I was able to use the crock pot on the same line. Now the next step is to see if the toaster-oven will overload the system or work too. Then I'll have an almost complete kitchen on the patio.
We had some friends over that we haven't seen in a long time. That was nice and some of them reconnected to others they haven't seen in while. David and Greg made nice and have a play date set for Saturday. If everyone behaves, we might have another party, hell maybe I'll ask the jihad party boys over. We can do the clap clap dance.
