Good morning. Nice balmy 1° outside with a 30 mile an hour wind




It was actually painful taking the pooch out this morning.
Gotta go warm the truck up in a few and run to Sam's club and Wally World. Need to pick up some last-minute supplies for this weekend.
Got a pot luck breakfast at my son's house Xmas morning. Then a relaxing afternoon and evening at home with the wife. Might invite a couple friend over, depending on what they have going on. But we usually keep it pretty low-key and dont go anywhere.
Work gave all the employees a meal option from Omaha steaks. So far, the past couple of years that they have done this, I've been sorely disappointed with what I've received.
The first year was a filet mignon. That was decent. But the burgers, dogs, and pork chops were horrible.
Tried the spiral cut ham last year. That wasn't too bad, but I also made up a maple glaze for it.
This year, they added a beef tenderloin option. So I figured I would try that one. I'll get it thawed, and depending on how I feel, I may fire up and cook that on the smoker.
