My American friends really LOVE me telling them they will always be behind us, except when they get double holiday celebrations. I don't know about all of the US Dave but I had some awesome pulled lamb in San Francisco a few years back just off Union Square. My American host was wondering why I was selecting lamb, I'd been in the US a month, enough steak already!!! Cheers

I might even hit the chook with a little nitrites to make luncheon smoked sandwich meat. Probably will use the pellet smoker as kids football is right in the middle of the day

239 years...a good run so far! We will be having Usinger’s Brat's, a most delicious sausage. They are from Milwaukee, a fellow Pellethead gave them to me at our last competition. He has a most wonderful way to cook them. You take the Brat's, put them in a pan with sliced onions, lots of butter and beer. They simmer till cooked, then they are put on a grill and cooked till the casing snaps! They are a one of a kind flavor!
Sides will be a smoked beet salad, not sure what else will go with the beats, maybe pear, maybe apple, served with a balsamic toss. Probably a macaroni or potato salad, home made vanilla ice cream and then Fireworks!

It was a decent meal, both salads were good, should have grilled the Brat's a tad longer for more snap!
