Title: Father’s day cooks?
Post by: CarrieAnn on June 12, 2018, 02:46:15 PM: So guys, what are you making for father’s day?

I have invited my kid’s dad (my ex) to visit and my boyfriend, the Honeybun, has to work and ump this weekend so he will be hungry. The girls and I are trying to plan a bbq. I’m going to do a deep dive in the freezer. I just got a new to me car so I can pass down my van to my daughter and contracted for a pergola for my patio so we can actually use it - it faces west and the sun is brutal. And then... my furnace/blower crapped out on me. Well, I had budgeted for the car and pergola. Not for a furnace. Luckily I have a freezer full of meat so we will be eating it down for a bit to help pay for the new furnace.

I shall be living vicariously thru some of you but you all make some interesting cooks and have great ideas so I’m hoping for some inspiration. Cheap inspiration. :)

So, whatcha making??

Post by: michaelmilitello on June 13, 2018, 06:31:25 PM: I bought a ribeye roast back at Easter at my local Meijer. They only put them on sale at Christmas and Easter. 5.99 a pound was too good to pass up. I’ve been saving it for a special occasion. Dinner with my dad and brother is just that.

If prime rib is not in your freezer or budget, steaks are always great Father’s Day meals.

Post by: JEBIV on June 15, 2018, 05:12:54 AM: I probably have my priorities wrong but, I bought the house a new blender this week, so first I will make a huge batch of Texas margaritas frozen and begin drinking, I will fire up the ranch because it's a ranch and it's Fathers day. I then will look in the freezer for some protein that has long since been paid for. By the time the protein defrosts I'll be sitting next to my slightly warm ranch because I can no longer stand up. Besides it's Fathers Day I should be able to do what I want! Dinner will be served before midnight maybe.

Post by: kettlebb on June 15, 2018, 06:12:36 AM: My plans for the weekend:

Up early tomorrow to mow and trim and clean up the yard.
Clean up the A code faded black
Clean up my Red mist BBK
Clean my new old grill arriving today
Pack my Brownie for shipping out next week
Drink some beers while cleaning grills listening to some tunes.

My mom wants to come for dinner Saturday evening. She is brining steaks, I’m making some St. Louis spares.

Sunday morning is a round of golf with my father in law and his two sons. Then we’ll have some lunch and sit on the front porch.

Post by: vwengguy on June 15, 2018, 07:54:38 AM: I know it sounds weird ... but I’m not cooking on Sunday ! At least nothing big or fancy.
I will be going with my wife as she goes for her KCBS Judge class and I will attend as a refresher, free food ;-) is always good!
Then we will both be judges and we plan to hit as many KCBS contests as we can from here out !
The class is in the middle of the day so if I do get back and we are still hungry then I might throw some sausages on one of the grills.

Title: Re: Father’s day cooks?
Post by: CarrieAnn on June 17, 2018, 06:38:04 AM: We ended up making some gourmet brats from a specialty place for lunch - my ex brought them down with him and he and I both had some ribs in the freezer so we smoked those for dinner. I had my kids make an orzo salad with dill and feta and some doctored up baked beans to go with it.

For a change, we did not end up with mass quantities of leftovers-something I’ve been trying to avoid since my kids don’t seem to want to eat them and I end up having to toss them. So all in all, I call it a success!!
