Looks like a great day on the kettle.
Good lookin proteins on there. I'll have to try the bacon wrap trick,
Thanks Joe, We haven't gotten to many really nice days this summer. It's either one extreme or the other. It was nice to kick back and enjoy.

Well after making a few trips to the dump trying to clean up my garage and basement. The wife and I got a serious case of the munchies. The grandson was spending the day with us so his mother could get some much needed rest after pulling an all nighter at work

A rare beautiful day here, and after some physical work. I needed some assistance from an old buddy of mine.

Time to fire-up the 22"Kettle/Vortex combo and toss on 4 thighs and a chuckie. The chuckie is for a chili I'm making either today or tomorrow.

Time to check on the proteins. Just to make sure they're tanning evenly.

Now to prep the nuggets. First wrap with bacon!!!

Thighs are done.

and the nuggets are on.

When the bacon is cooked. Dip the nuggets in a cup of BBQ sauce so they're fully coated. and top with cheddar cheese.

Well that's all folks. Thanks for hanging with me. The grandson devoured his nuggets. To be honest so did the wife and I. I wish I had made more of them. As for the thighs - well the misses and I each ate one later on that night. The other two will be for today's lunch.

Ok those are Adult nuggets if I have ever seen them

Grey skies are gonna clear up
Put on a happy face

We're looking at blue skies this morning. Hope it stays this way. I have to trim painting to do.

I am pretty well always smiling ( or at least grinning ) Makes Mona mad, she is always saying stop being so happy.

I might grumbel , but it all is what it is . I just try to go with the flow, except the flow lately has been kind of fast.

Today rain all day again. I just came in pretty wet as I had to put brake pads on the back of the work van , and on the brighter note , I left early from work today as it was raining just enough that I could not open up the outside wall at customers house.

See win win, early from work and got my brakes done, always smiling

Sounds like my dad growing up. He'd come home and ask if I'd walked the dog. If I said yes he mumbled something under his breath. If I said no, he'd also mumble something under his breath. I was never really sure which was worse, but I made it a point to walk the dog before he got home.

It takes me longer to get up from working on my brakes now. Then it does to actually change the brakes. It sucks getting old.

Thanks CM, the nuggets are all gone, but I still have some chili leftover. Oh heck, who am I kidding. If you came by I'd go buy some more nuggets, and bacon.

I hear you brother ,
I had to remove the caliper on one side 3 times , it was not sliding right.
After about the third time getting up off my knees, I said this is getting very old now . But I could not wait for 2 weeks for the garage to do them.

I'm used to having splinters under my nails not black grease, lol

Between the aches and pains of getting up/down and having to make an appointment to get rid of the hazardous fluids. It's almost worth paying the high cost of having someone else to the work.
