Life Drinking Beer and Smoking Ribs... - Page 15

**Gonzo** · 07-19-2009, 02:19 PM

I'm in my backyard on a beautiful day, drinking beer and smoking a few racks of ribs. I think I have just about perfected this art. I use a good dry rub that has ground cayanne, sea salt, minced dry garlic, red pepper and a little onion salt. My baste has some Johnny Red, olive oil, cajun seasoning, balsanic vinagar and fresh garlic. My beer has alcohol, hopps and has been kissed by angels.
My boy is hanging out with me. He turns 1 on Tuesday. My wife is mowing the yard in some skin tight jeans.
Life is good today, that is all.

The Delano quote makes so much more sense now.

Ehhh. Western Nebraska does get hammered a lot worse than Emporia did when I was there, but the summers are a kajillion times nicer without the humidity.

I agree with whomever assessed that our summer has been mild. Especially the early part. That makes Buehler445 a happy man.

Gonzo, how did the ribs taste??? You never filled us in. Glad you got to enjoy your day bud.

Twas a nice day.

Definitely. I went in the evening on Saturday, at about 6. I guess a number of the vendors had left, but the ones that stayed were great.

sounds like maybe you should. I'm sure you could tell a norcal bud from a east cal bud.

Even if I could with experience doesn't mean that I should, necessarily. I don't drink beer because I have the ability to discern subtle flavors, I drink beer because I like the taste of malted barley and hops.

speaking of malted barley and hops, I was up in northwest wisconsin this past week on a fishing trip. I tried quite a few craft beers that were new to me. One of my pals had some of the "original recipe" Shlitz with him and I decided to try one. Pretty good stuff. My palate is plenty discerning too, both in beer and food. I think I had the best beer I have ever had while I was up there. It was New Glaris brewery and the beer was spotted cow.

New Glarus is a really solid brewery. I've only had a couple of their beers, though.

They were F'ing awesome man. Best I've ever had.

Hootie · 07-20-2009, 12:46 PM

man...

Reaper sure douched up this thread.

Jesus.

Hootie · 07-20-2009, 12:48 PM

how many times do you think Reaper google searched these beers before douching up this thread?

Shit...I'm a beer expert, too! Ask me about a beer, I'll google it and read what others say about it, and then claim it as my own opinion!

Sheeeeeeeeit.

True or false. Natty Ice tastes better cold or warm after a night of adderall bonfires and camping?

Probably not once. I haven't talked about a single beer in this thread that I haven't had.

Actually, I take that back. I did mention Busch in a post, and I haven't ever drank one of those. And I did search its ABV%.
