    It really is awesome to think about what those men went through back then. Would we find enough men today who has the balls to do what they did?

    I was thinking back and it just does not seem that long ago when we celebrated 200 years of Independence. Wow, how the time does fly by.

    Happy Independence Day everyone. Many have lost sight of its' significance, but I hold it very near to my heart. The air may be stifling hot here today, but we are breathing freedom.

    Happy Independence Day to my firewood family! I haven't been around much lately, just too damm busy.

    We did our annual firepit chicken today, and added two full racks of dry-rubbed ribs into the mix. I cooked the ribs nice and slow over a bed of oak and hickory coals and some plum and hickory splits, keeping the heat quenched with a water sprayer. After an hour of smoke and medium heat, they were done, and they were fantastic!

    The chicken....it's to die for! Made with my cider vinegar/olive oil spray.

    And the ribs were phenomenal, I can't eat to make them again! There ain't even any leftovers!
