    Before buying my house and developing a firewood obsession, I was 70lbs heavier and had a cooking obsession. My 4th annual Memorial Day BBQ was born out of that.

    Here's some of what I'll be serving:

    Smoked Turkey cold cuts:

    My buddy caught some salmon yesterday, gutted and deboned them for me:

    Cured them overnight in salt, pepper, and maple syrup, currently awaiting their turn on the smoker:

    Firing the egg with about 1/2 charcoal, 1/2 black cherry chunks:

    30lbs pork shoulder:

    Ill be adding more pics through the day - stay tuned!

    I wish I had more pics - a great time was had by all - it was like BBQ Thanksgiving. :D

    I thought I way overplanned on the pulled pork - but I think many of my guests ended up taking it for a BBQ souvenir... :D Everything you see here is gone - I don't even have an extra rib... :(
