Mealplan Monday #119 and our smoker

 On July 4th, Hubby ran his smoker and we loaded it up with ribs and brisket.
 Baby back ribs are my favorite!
Isn't he festive in his red, white, and blue attire?
This week I am making good use of the leftover bounty in the freezer so I can give it a good cleaning and make some more freezer meals. 
******
Monday - Mac and Cheese with brisket and ribs, corn, rolls (freezer clean-out for all of that)
Tuesday - order pizza, salad (I've got Papa Johns points!)
Wednesday - Beanie Weinie, garlic toast (both already in the freezer)
Thursday - Taco Salads, Fruit Cocktail Cake (freezer clean-out of leftover grilled chicken, black beans, corn off the cob, and cake)
Friday - Baked Chicken Thighs a la Nonna*, broccoli cheese rice casserole
Saturday - Dad grill
Sunday - Southwest Style Chicken crock pot, masheds, peas or salad
*recipe coming soon
******
 Cleaning that beast is a chore, so we only run it when we can load it up.  Usually once or twice in the summer and on Thanksgiving Day.
 Hubby likes to tinker with different types of woods and he always uses apple juice instead of water to keep it going.
A brisket is a thang of beauty, too.
