A Great Easter
My wife and I went over to visit family this morning for a light breakfast. It's a gorgeous day and we had fun with the grand kids.
Back to the house for some yard work - planting bulbs and mulching. It's great to spend an entire day outside again.
This morning, I had visitors - a turkey hen and a HUGE Tom (turkey hunters wet dream with a beard that darn near dragged the ground ). The hen was OK with me taking pics. Big Tom, not so much. He'll be back...........
I put some thin cut pork chops on for dinner tonight - marinaded in McCormick's Brazilian Steakhouse Marinade (absolutely killer on pork and beef), and cooked hot and fast on the BGE with some mesquite chips to kick it up a bit:
It was a great Easter this year, and I hope that all of you had a great Easter!

Thank, Russ!
I wish I caught a pic of the big Tom. He really is huge and a turkey hunter's wet dream. I'm in the woods. There's a flock that lives close and they make the rounds on the houses. They're used to people and normally don't care.

Looks like a perfect day. The granddaughter is quite a cutie and the food looks scrumptious.

Re: A Great Easter
That is cool. I'm not sure what Fonzie would have done, meeting a turkey in the garden. Going crazy if he spots a magpie on the neighbor's roof or closer.
Both him and I would have eaten thos chops fairly quick. Looks good.
