A lot of folks blog about their hobbies. I blog about the one thing that Clay and I do best! Cook! This folks is the beginning of the Best Ribs That We Have Ever Cooked!! We have not had good luck lately EGGING Baby Backs but these we fantastic! We covered them in a rub that is famous on the Big Green Egg Forum. We have used this recipe exclusively on our pork dishes for a long time.

So here they are on the EGG ready to close the lid. Clay has already fired it up with some Hickory and Apple Chips that had been soaked in water. We have poured beer in the drip pan. We are supposed to pour some Apple Juice in there too but since we are out of Apple Juice, we are doing without.

Here she is Smoking! Go Baby Go!! The way we are cooking them today is a little different than before. So we will see how they turn out. Time will tell.

Here they are immediately after pulling them off of the EGG. Plans are for us to put the sauce on them on our plate. Look at how they have "pulled away" from the bone! This is a very key thing to look for in good ribs.

Smothered in our own special sauce with a side of our homemade coleslaw. It don’t get no better than this folks! There are some Baked Beans of course. They cannot be seen in this picture. Time for dinner!

We made a trip to Broadway at the Beach on Saturday afternoon. Maddie was enthralled with the ducks and fish in the water below. She couldn’t believe there were so many fish!

I think this was the best picture I took all weekend long! This is such a good picture of the family. I don’t  think I have ever taken a picture of Maddie when she was smiling either!

What is this? She is actually standing in the water!! This was taken on Sunday. It took us about 3 days to get her used to the water then we couldn’t get her out!

Maddie doesn’t look too happy does she? Only time will tell the story. She did not seem to like her toes disappearing under the sand when the waves washed up on shore.

And here we have what looks like a bowl of Jelly Beans and a cut up dill pickle??  This is the beginning of THE CHALLENGE!!! There has been a CHALLENGE issued to Ronnie from Clay. Ronnie has to eat 10 Black Jelly Beans but in return, Clay has to eat a cut up Dill Pickle!! Hee Hee! This is going to be fun!
