I'm down visiting my folks in Palm Springs and was lucky enough to meet up with
@Troy and
@Jason Beach for a mini meet / Feast!
First I drooled over his sweet collection - omg the glen blue is sweet!

Then it was onto the food.... And Troy didn't mess around!! He cooked up an amazing bacon wrapped pork tenderloin smothered in some homemade bbq sauce that was REALLY good! Also accompanied by Prosciutto Provolone Asparagus that blew our minds! Jason also brought some really good wings and I pitched in some bacon wrapped pineapple. We all ate our faces off and shared some real good beers!

A huge thank you to Troy and Johwey for welcoming us into their home. Just a beautiful spot... I'm so jealous of Troys grilling area, it puts mine to shame! And also big thanks to Jason for making the trip up! It was really great meeting you both and cheers for the gifts gentleman! Hope to see you both again next year!!

Cool guys. A proper cook up with fellow members ought to be memorable. Holy crap that food looks amazing. The tenderloin and asparagus wraps look like they are right out of a upper level restaurant Troy. The vintage Kettles are a beauty backdrop....eye candy.
Being able to wear sandals without frostbite concerns after 5 minutes is beauty too.
Great surroundings, great hosts, great food, great kettles, great friends......leave anything out?
great weather
looks like a grate time
It really was... the perfect afternoon IMO 8)
Here's one more shot with both of the yellers! Gotta love the pastels.

The company, the food, the grills... nice afternoon!
I'm glad I was able to drive up and hang out with you guys! 8)
Sorry I wasn't able to meet up wit you guys. I had a kid's bday party to go to during the day.
Awesome meetup. Wish I was there.
I had a great time guys!! I wish my wife Johwey had been feeling better.
The beers were great, the food was amazing, and the company was unbeatable.
I can't wait to do it again!!
Looks like a fun time!
Looks like a good time, so jealous of the weather, as I sit in MI close to 0 degrees F temps
Okay. Those Prosciutto Provolone Asparagus wraps looked so damn good...and I was thinking about them long enough...that I had to take a kick at them.
Tonight's dinner:

I'm not sure if we'll have hookers and blow at the next one though...
How do you guys make the asparagus wraps? They look awesome!

Just take a few sticks of asparagus, wrap in the provolone and then wrap the prosciutto overtop of the cheese and cook. Simple as that! ... Oh and while you are cooking, try to mentally prepare yourself for the amazing flavour you are about to experience ;)

I make these fairly regularly, as I haven't burned out on them at all. I use the really thin sliced Provolone. Cook indirect.
Made them last night. Man they were delicious. Thanks for posting this recipe.
I still make them regularly too.
Pro tip, buy the nice provolone from the deli counter. Get the nice stuff, Boars Head or something better.
It's more and pungent and nutty than the ones in the fridge section.
