Speaking of…House of the Dragon new season should be dropping in a couple of months.

Morning all. Had fun at our oyster roast. Good catching up with some coworkers I haven’t seen since the last one. Wife goes in for her checkup today so, another milestone to recovery.

Have a great day! Santa Fe sunrise MZ:

How was the checkup?
 
Yeah she has gotten the shots. 1 eye is worse than the other. She only has peripheral vision... she wants to wear an eye patch .... it bothers her.... she can see to take care of the house etc.... her grandma was blind I suspect of the same thing because i remember when I was little that she would turn her head to " see a little bit"
That has to be hard for her. 🫂
 
One of my dad’s friends left his left arm on Iwo Jima. When the 50th anniversary of the battle was coming up, the VFW reached out to him to see if he’d be interested in going back for the commemoration. His quote…”I ain’t going back over there and shaking their hands. Those bastards tried to kill me!”
I wouldn't go, either!
 
So for the unwashed…here’s your BBQ primer…

NC BBQ - split into Eastern NC (vinegar based sauce w spices) and Western NC (Tomato/ketchup/molasses or sweet)
SC BBQ - mustard based sauce. Good but not my fav…

Both of these mainly piggy

Tennessee - Dry rub spice
KC - a mix of dry rub spice and sweet sauce

Mainly beef and Tennessee mostly ribs

TX - spicer sauces with a healthy mix of the rub and others. Brisket is king

BBQ is kind of like sex…even when it’s bad…it’s still pretty good! 😂
Thanks for the tutorial, H!
