Baaa'd To The Bone
A rainy Labor Day Weekend here on the Alabama Gulf Coast but I'm not letting it slow my smoking down. Even though I'm cooking enough to last through tomorrow, today's pace in the kitchen is relaxed as I've spread things out over the day.
Things, lots of things, good things, yummy things... Oh yeah!
What kind'a things you ask? Well let me tell you.
The Menu
Breakfast
Breakfast, a good day deserves a good breakfast to start it out right.
Double Cheese Cheesy Grits with three Sunny Side Eggs

Mac-n-Cheese Waffle experimentation inspired by [USER=69419]@hillbillyrkstr[/USER]
I made the first one with straight mac-n-cheese and it didn't work out very well.
The next batch I added a cup of panko crumbs and an egg to about 3-4C of mac-n-cheese.
All of'em were made with bacon and jalapeno.
Those cooked up much better with a nice consistency.
I found these to be quite interesting, but my wife was ho-hum and my younger kids wouldn't even try them... Brats.
My wife ate a couple pieces and said it reminded her of cheesy cornbread.

Oddegan's Bacon Grease Ginger Snaps Big and spicy Ginger Snaps with a chewy center of homemade Candied Ginger.
The candied was better than the crystallized, larger, softer and chewier.
The Finale

Lamb is a bit pricey , I used to split a Lamb with a friend at work , We had a regular customer that was a retired Doctor that liked
being a gentleman farmer and would do all the processing himself and would cut a very good deal if we came out and shot as many groundhogs
as possible in his fields , He tried it and the shots scared the livestock , We used suppressor's . He's gone now and his farm is now a housing development .If you are going to fight, fight like you are the third monkey on the ramp to Noah's ark and brother, it's starting to rain!
That is interesting, but surely an oversight? The ByWater-Beachside has a Facebook page @ https://www.facebook.com/ByWaterBeachside I asked them what the hours will be after Labor Day...
Pier burger stand?
