How do you like that Dickel Leopold Bros collaboration? I bought one a year, or two, ago and just finished it. I won't be replacing it. I really like most Dickel whiskey, but I think the collaboration with Leopold is just okay....and a little pricey too boot. Dad's Hat Pre-Prohibition style rye scratches a similar itch, and is much more reasonably priced. IMHO, of course..
I of course love smoked meats of all kinds, but also like quick cooks like chicken portions, pork tenderloins, steak and fish. Really into cooking of all kinds.
My outdoor kitchen has a Lone Star Grillz Adjustable and it is wonderful. There also is a Pit Boss 5 Burner Ultimate Griddle and a Pit Boss Copperhead pellet grill.
There is an outdoor fire pit that has grilling capability and limited Santa Maria-style grill raising and lowering.

A little red to go with ample amounts of Stilton cheese. The lighting makes my crystal look dirty, but it’s a clean glass. 🤓
dark fruit, a smidge of leather, light-to-medium tannins. Once there was a bite of bleu cheese, the wine got really bright and a bit more tannic. Being a central CA wine, the minerality was subtle, but it was there. Yum! I still have a 2018 holding….
You sound like me! I have some xxxx laying down…they should be great around xxxx. LOL
My GF and I belong to several wine “clubs.” She used to roll her eyes when we were tasting and I’d say something like, “This is good, but it could be amazing in x-xx years.” (Or even months in some cases.) And then the staff member, or even the winemaker, would say, “Oh yeah…if you could lay these down for another year or two…it will be amazing.” LOL
Just because it’s bottled doesn’t mean it’s ready. ;-)

This was earlier, finally cooling off a bit the last few days with some afternoon thunderstorms passing through, and that means a cocktail on the patio. Getting to be my favorite time of year, or it will be once the afternoons are in the 80s and not upper 90s like it’s been this month!
Looking good. Hope the wife is able to join you with her drink as well. It's a lovely way to spend a bit of quiet time together before the next whirlwind (person or situation) blows through the house!
fzxdoc yep, she was out here with me! Lovely night for her with a few margaritas and then had a nice dinner on the patio with our mall teriyaki chicken!
Hope you had a great evening and have a wonderful weekend, Kathryn!
Mojito and beer..
