March 25 was my wife's b'day and her sister (the one I like) got her the latest iPad so I inherited the iPad she bought her last year. Since this one has a camera I figured I'd start taking pics of food again.

This is what the yard looked like on the 24th

Did some pulled pork for the party. Set up indirect on the kettle with some sugar maple from the yard. Snows real handy for filling the pan



Almost finished. This is the last pic. There was a party goin on.



So a week later I'm at the butcher counter and there is a sale on bone in rib steaks for $6.99/lb and a sale on prime rib roast for $5.99/lb. which made my decision very easy. I got a 3" thick prime rib roast.

Got home and seasoned it up and showed the wife the "steak" I got. She said "that's not a steak it's a roast". I said "trust me it's a steak".

So on the kettle it went. Direct for a bit and then finished it indirect. Once again used some sugar maple, I have 2 cords of this stuff I need to use up.



View of the yard while the steak was cooking. Snow is slowly going away.



Plated up with a baker and some 'shrooms. Kerry wouldn't let me put the whole thing on my plate. She had some kind of veggie dish.



About a week later



Was doing up some button ribs to make sweet'n'sour button ribs for The Masters party.





Once again no finished pic because there was a party goin on. I cook them till they're almost done then cut into individual bones, put them in a pan with my homemade sweet'n'sour sauce and let them go in the oven for about an hour.
 
It's been a long cold winter with lots of snow but spring is finally here. Scooter is really enjoying the wet muddy yard and gardens.



Me not so much.
Thanks for looking.
 
Some good looking cooks Bob!!! Is Scooter a house dog? My Wife would have a fit if one of my dogs came in the house with paws looking like those!!!
 
Thanks everybody. Cliff I love our place and in another month I won't be able to see the neighbours once the bush fills in. Yes John Scooter is a house dog. We are going through lots of towels and Kerry put my name on the mop.
 
Good to see your snow is melting and that Scooter is having a REAL good time. Nice plated pics of the nice meals that you have been cooking up.
 
Great post Bob. I'll come take some of that sugar maple off your hands soon.

Yard looks great, as did mine...until it snowed again this morning! I'm pretty sure we're never getting out of this hell.

For those of you reading, it was nearly 25 Celsius here one Monday and we got a few inches of snow and -3 Celsius on Tuesday!
 
Nice looking prime rib for sure and I agree its nice thick steak :) Scooter a border collie or Aussie? Have 3 Aussies myself that all recently found the mud in our back yard and they each got carried to the tub for a wash down.

Yeah I know that all too well with our newest puppy. All of ours have been angels compared to this active little guy. Mine are 5yr female, 2yr Male and a 5mth old Male. Great dogs though and smart as can be. Have had them for 20 yrs and will be the only dogs we will own probably. We used to have a black tri but lost her at 16 and a blue merle male at 17 a few yrs ago both to age related issues.

How long did that prime rib take to cook that way? May look into that as a dinner this weekend now that my taste buds are asking for it.

My official Weber watching crew with the wide open one out front. Those eyes say trouble :)
 
Very nice looking bunch of hounds, I'm working on the wife to get another. The steak took about 3-4 minutes per side and then about another 20 minutes indirect.
