Charlie's birthday party is today.



I turned my smoker into a grill to have enough surface area to cook stuff that would fall through the grid/grill otherwise. Buying ready to grill meat is too expensive at this scale so I've spent the last few days preparing spice pork bulgogi and beef bulgogi.  In the slow cooker with the scotch eggs are grilled hot dogs keeping warm. Other sides were vinaigrette coleslaw,  and bbq beans.
