Mickey’s BBQ Birthday

My youngest daughter has a very cute, very hairy chihuahua named Mickey. For his first birthday party, she decided to give him a BBQ. Well, I don’t need much persuasion to fire up the grill or smoker, so it was totally fine with me! This is what we had…

BBQ Chicken breasts and thighs, hamburgers, and hot dogs!

Beer Can Chicken is Done!

Oh yeah! The first 2011 cook is a great success. The skin is tasty and the meat is tender.  Incredible flavor!  :)

Patiently Waiting!

The first picture are my two WSM’s Porky and Miss Piggy. They are patiently awaiting their turn to smoke up some BBQ, but not today. Today belongs to my Char-Grilled Smokin’ Pro, Boss Hog!

1st Cook of 2011!

It’s on!!!  2 beer can chickens and a few cheese brats. It’s a relatively small cook, but it’s a start for the season.

Getting Ready to Get Ready!

This little fire I’m starting is not for the beer can chicken cook, it’s actually for cleaning my grates that have been idle for almost the entire winter.  I’m smoking cheese brats and beer can chicken today. Stay tuned for more!
