Sigh, Monday again. We had a decent weekend though, so there’s that. We started off on Friday evening over at friend’s house. It was sort of a semi-birthday for several people in the group. Had a great tri tip for dinner. I’ve been wanting that for a while, so that worked out well.
Saturday, we made the somewhat long drive to Lodi to check out a BBQ competition. Donette happened across it online, and we thought what the heck. It was a genuine KCBS sanctioned event, don’t see that much around here! It was small, I am guessing about 20 teams. Few nice setups, but for the most part there were some good ol’ back yard barbecuers in the entered. It was definitely fun, although we didn’t stick around to see the results. We had to take off for dinner reservations, which were at The Oxford in their little downtown area. Great dinner! Hour and a half drive aside, Lodi was a good time, might make it back there sometime.
Sunday was a “recovery day” from our big Saturday. Got some stuff done around the house and that’s about it. Mowed some of the yard, split a little wood for the firepit, and did a good amount of sitting around. All in all, a good weekend.
That shepherd’s pie looks fancy. Nothing like a good ol’ barbeque competition!
Can’t believe we finally found one out here!
