We took our short trip to the Iron range this weekend and decided to snowmobile for a while in the cold. When we took the snowmobiles out of the garage, it was -36° F, I am sure it warmed up some as we were playing but not a whole lot. It was actually quite warm due to layering and good clothing.

Break out the smoker and do cheese! Perfect time for some awesome gouda and cheddar!

Oh, great, I can hear the "plop plop" of grey mystery snow falling of the car in the garage at 10:00 at night right now.

 

Might have to move back to minne-so cold one day too...

But for the time being I'm enjoying Florida's weather way too much. Ha.

I still remember when I was a kid I could look out me window and see the lights of the Koch refinery at night, and in winter when the leaves on the oak and hickory were gone I could watch all of the traffic lights change colors almost all the way into Inver grove heights. Ahhhh...

...Good point. Like living in a Mad Max film down in Rosemont.

Sledding is the best! The other night I had my old ass out on my old-assed Polaris Indy 500, bombing around with a buddy of mine on his tricked-out Yamaha Nytro. Minus 10 degrees, ripping through the trees at 40mph, (I was doing 40; HE was doing 90), on groomed trails. I'm off work on Thursday and I'm looking forward to going down the mountain and getting out onto the lake. Winter is the best; not only can you snowmobile/ski/skate/and snowboard, but if you have a low shot on a shell, you won't light the snow on fire,..... unlike the Dakins' hayfield, for which I apologized years ago.

Yeah, true. It would be nice to see you again.

 

If funds are tight or limited, we have to choose which things get done and which get left out. Maybe later...?!:D I'm planning on PGI also; see you there.

Doing Tourbillions again?

I'm doing ribs. Expected 12-14" and highs of 16 tomarrow. Gonna have to stock the smoker full-o-lump!

 

Always loved the flavor of pepper-steak and such flavored things. Not raw green peppers so much, but the fried ones. In this case, in OO with balsamic, some salt and sugar.

 

Gonna let this sit till tomarrow and do 'em up for me and a buddy in town for the Wings game tomarrow night. Should pick up some flavor, ya think?

OK...

 

Here's the slabs getting a mustard rub and covered in Mad Hunky rub. Pepper aroma is apparent on the last slab.

OK...sooo YES! If you like pepper-steak...TRY THIS! The flavor was clearly there, even thru the Mad Hunky rub and mop...AND the Rudy's! BTW - the Rudy's is an excellent "non-sweet" sauce, and was perfect with the added pepper flavor. Try that combo folks!

Hahaha! Well, you were warned! Let's hope the KCBS judges think along the same lines at the competitions this season. Altho, my team ended up 377 nationally out of like 4700 teams...sooo top 10%
