Loving my grill

 I bought a small charcoal grill a while back for Mom and I to enjoy. Nothing fancy, just something we could use on the weekends to make burgers and stuff. 

This past weekend I took a small pork shoulder Mom had in the freezer, marinated it with mustard, Worcestershire sauce, Spanish Mojo, BBQ sauce and herbs and spices. I wrapped the shoulder in tin foil for the first hour of grilling, then removed the foil and let if finish on the direct heat.

I also bought some corn on the cob and soaked them in water for a few hours and placed them on the grill during the last hour of cooking.





I also found some unsalted pork skin which I later tossed into my deep fryer for crispy Chicharrones (Fried pork rinds). I softened some butter in a nearly empty bottle of minced garlic.

 

I let the grill do all the work!



Once done, I slathered the corn with the garlic butter and served up slices of the pork with a side of the fried pork skins!


Simple yet delicious!

Hand me some RAID!

I am deathly afraid of cockroaches. It doesn’t matter if it’s a tiny baby one or full sized monster. I recall growing up in South Florida cockroaches or palmetto bugs as they are commonly known were a nuisances most homes had to deal with. I can trace this fear of the nasty and fully winged adult creature back to when I was about six years old. One of the perks of living in Miami as a child was that Walt Disney World was a mere four hour drive and, back then, quite affordable even for a family of four. School was out for the summer, dad had time off from work and mom had packed up the suitcases. The morning we were heading out mom woke us up around 5 a.m. It was still dark outside and I was barely awake but dressed. Dad sat me down on his recliner as he went off to wake up my brother and pack up the car. Mom was busy washing last minute dishes and prepping snacks for the road trip. Rocking back and forth I soon drifted into a wondrous slumber filled with Disney visions. Thoughts ...
