[Steve Kroll]

Our daughter has her boyfriend and a couple of college friends staying over this weekend.

I've had a pork butt in the smoker since 8 AM. Tonight will be pulled pork with homemade KC-style sauce, potato salad, honey baked beans, and coleslaw.

It is hot and humid here, thinking a big tossed salad will be enough for me.

 

[jabbur]

Got a new tank on the propane grill. Picked up some NY strips at the store. We'll have those and salads.

 

[Cerise]

I have a small spaghetti squash. I might incorporate it with fettuccine & make a Straw & Hay dish. Fresh fruit (strawberrie, etc.) for dessert.

 

[Harry Cobean]

raining cats & dogs here(most of the country is on flood alert)but warm & humid.so i thought light & tropical...vietnamese beef with sour green mango,rice noodle,peanut & pomegranate salad:

 

[Steve Kroll]

Very colorful, Harry! Looks delicious.

On the other hand, my butt is quite ugly.

But it's falling-off-the-bone tender and very tasty.

 

[DaveSoMD]

Not sure... too hot to be outdoors grilling and I don't want to turn on the oven...so I'm thinking Chinese take-out or Subway

Actually, it's a thing of beauty! I've got the buns to go with it.

Great butt, Steve! Andy has the right idea!.

 

[Katie H]

Not sure. Waaaaay to hot to cook out. Today's high is/was 105F and we just want to hunker down and stay cool.

Except...the power went out about an hour and a half ago, so the staying cool part means being still and not opening any doors. Can't microwave or bake anything. We have a gas cooktop but that would generate heat. There's plenty of ice and bourbon. Maybe we'll have a liquid diet if the power doesn't come on in time for supper.

Otherwise, if the power does come on soon we have a refrigerator full of Fourth of July leftovers Glenn's son brought by last night. Burgers, hot dogs, slaw, you name it. Only time will tell.

I'm not touching that one with a ten foot pole.

 

[Rocklobster]

Heading out.....wings and beerzzz....

Vegetable fried rice and an egg roll....I'll have some mint chocolate chip ice cream in a little while to round out the meal

Rotisserie chicken and, um, something else.

We had rotisserie chicken too! It's our 15th anniversary. We had a pasta salad with that and a leafy salad of arugula, romaine, and snow peas. I used the same homemade vinaigrette in both salads, seasoned with fresh basil, chives, and Italian parsley from the garden. It was accompanied by a lovely Portuguese rosé, Casal Mendes.
