I will be in California to attend a wedding but can still watch on TV (I hope). Will probably be fed a California veggie burger with avocado and bean sprouts with a side of raw turnip strips and beet juice smoothie but I can dream can't I?
If I were home, and I may make this the following week when we get home, I would likely make this.
St Louis Ribs - dry rubbed overnight then finished with a good wet BBQ sauce at the end with more on the side cooked on a smoke pit.
French Fried Sweet Potatoes - boil after cutting into strips then fry slightly crisp and finish with cinnamon and sugar.
Three bean salad - kidney beans, wax beans & green beans, sliced red onion dressed with 3/4 cup sugar, 3/4 cup vinegar & 1/2 cup olive oil.
BBQ Meatballs - 2/3 ground beef, 1/3 mixed hot ground pork sausage. Roll into balls slightly smaller than ping pong balls and brown in skillet. Transfer to pot filled with 1 bottle BBQ sauce and 1 jar grape jelly well mixed.
Cheese board - sliced cheeses, cold cuts, fruit & crackers
Rum Runner Frozen Drinks - blackberry liquor, banana liquor, splash of grenadine, light rum, dark rum, 151 rum, crushed ice with fruit salad garnish on a skewer.
Fried hand pies - cocoanut cream, pineapple, mango and apple filled flip over pies deep fried in oil.
