I made a mean Miso Glazed Salmon dinner for Dot for NYE. 
Damn tasty. AND I got those “YUM” napkins for Christmas from Present on Main St!

Here’s to a great 2016!

Ernest Hemingway Quote of the Week from Greg Bover

“The world breaks everyone and afterward many are strong at the broken places.”

Ernest Hemingway (1899-1961)

image

An Illinois native, Hemingway was among the most influential writers of the twentieth century. A volunteer ambulance driver, he was seriously wounded in World War I, and used the experience to write A Farewell to Arms, in 1929, from which the quote above is taken. A member of the “Lost Generation” of American expatriates in Paris, Hemingway’s exuberant lifestyle and four marriages made him the icon of a certain sort of mid-century male celebrity, famous for his African hunting and deep sea fishing.  After writing The Sun Also Rises, For Whom the Bell Tolls, and The Old Man and the Sea, he was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction in 1953, and the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1954. A long series of automobile and airplane crashes, fires and other accidents, coupled with alcoholism, left Hemingway in pain and suffering from depression. He committed suicide by shotgun at his ranch in Idaho in 1961.

The set-up

20151230_093135-01.jpeg

Country style boneless pork ribs hit the kettle.  I used hickory chunks and cherry chips, charcoal set up- snake method and tossed the water pan from the Western Mountain Smoker to keep the ribs from getting dried out.

20151230_101852_hdr-01.jpeg

Once they hit 150 internal I pulled them off, cut them up into cubes and reapplied the rub.  Melted a stick of butter and mixed it with Texas Pete hot sauce and coated them before I reapplied the rub.

I had just set up the @webergrills kettle to smoke up some pork burnt ends when Tim Ring pointed out the snowy Owl.  Immediately I called Kim Smith and she’s getting some great footage right now as the ravens swoop down and try to shoo it away.
