| My food goal in Italy was to bring back a bunch of dried Porcinis. They sold a large bag (20 oz) of these already chopped for 5 euro. From a grocery store in the states the dried ones can be $5 for 1 ounce. The Porcinis were awesome there.  | | | |

| 100% organic grass fed/finished, dry aged Rib Eye steaks fired up on the BGE! Sundays and steaks seem to go together at our house. Perfect with a 2003 Switchback Ridge Cabernet 
Pretty thick too! 
Nice crust but still medium rare

| Damn! I should have posted some pics of the pork shoulder I cooked last night with Board-O's recipe. Was locally raised (in NC that's a good thing), slaughtered in the AM and in a crock pot 6 hrs later. | | | |

I had issues getting the ribs on to the plates because the meat kept coming off... | | | |
