Every time we go we have a fantastic time. The staff is super friendly, the room is gorgeous and the food is next level all the time. What a blessing for Rockport folk to have in their backyard and worth the trip for anyone North of Boston. Now that my vacation time is finally here I’m looking forward to the Sunday brunch featuring the build your own Bloody Mary bar. If you haven’t been, it’s time for you to check out what all the buzz is about.

First A Short From Some Of The Homies From The HomieCast Crew-
Yesterday while scrolling through social media I saw a ton of people using hashtags like #fuck2017 #2017sucked. I suspect that most of those hashtags were directly related to politics.
This is what I’d like to say- if you have your health, if you are surrounded by people that love you, friends and family, then that is what matters. We rang out 2017 surrounded by people that love us, that wish good things for us. For 2018 do yourself a favor and don’t let your year in retrospect be decided in your mind by who is holding office whether it be local, state or federal. Let it be decided by the wealth in human friendships and love in your life. In the end that’s what matters. Be rich in friendships, be rich in love- it brings you a hundred billion times more pleasure than anything else.
We’re so lucky to have such great friends and family. #focusonthepositive

Prepped the St Louis pork ribs by first trimming off the silverskin membrane, light slather of mustard to hold the rub and then hit it with my pork rub.
Next filled right side of PK 360 with a full chimney of unlit coals. Placed 10 briquettes in the chimney to get going and dumped on one corner of the unlit coals and sprinkled on some cherry wood for smoke. Put down a sheet of tin foil and aluminum trays on the charcoal grate under where the ribs will be placed on the opposite side of the grill from the coals. Fill the foil pan a quarter of the way with warm water to help retain a moist smoking environment. The foil will keep the bottom of the grill easy to clean from the fat drippings that will render throughout the low and slow cooking session.
Place a remote thermometer in…

My buddy Eric Lorden got me a full packer brisket for Christmas. As there doesn’t look like there’s any end in sight to these frigid temps here in the northeast it was getting time to put up or shut up. So I trimmed this beautiful Angus Brisket which had a considerable about of fat to remove.
You can see how much fat was trimmed away in this pic. I left a quarter inch or so on the fat cap side which was cooked fave down on the Kettle.
After trimming away the unwanted fat it was time to season. Coarse salt, crushed black pepper, John Henry’s Brisket Rub and a little Montreal Steak Seasoning. Fat cap side up in this picture. She was wrapped in cello and refrigerated overnight.
Got a late start at 8AM but set up the kettle for the snake method, placed a large aluminum pan on…

“Heart-wrenching. As unflinching as it is beautiful.” – The New York Times
SeniorCare Inc. presents Mimi & Dona, on Tuesday, January 9, 2018 at 7:30 p.m. at the Cape Ann Cinema, 21 Main Street in Gloucester, MA. The film will be followed by a discussion and cocktail hour with light appetizers. This presentation is sponsored by The Residence at Riverbend with additional support from Tufts Health Plan Foundation.
What happens when love runs out of time? For a 92-year-old mother, Mimi, who has cared 64 years for Dona, a daughter who has an intellectual disability, it means facing the inevitable—the likelihood that she will not outlive her daughter and the need to find her daughter a new home.
This poignant, heartbreaking and, at times, humorous documentary traces this process through the story of a quirky and deeply connected mother-daughter duo. The film spotlights the challenges of aging caregivers…
