Jody,

Ok, I have to admit that I've never even heard of any food like that, but it sure sounds yummy.

I imagine that we'll go out to Cracker Barrell for dinner tomorrow. Probably have some kind of salad. Pretty bland compared to your dinner.

Sounds good!
I'm making a ham and trying to decide what to make as side dishes.

I've no idea the menu, but know it will be good to eat! Looking forward to getting family together. I'm not much of a shepherd, but wouldn't mind trying Sue's concoction.

Eat more lamb! 10000 coyotes can't be wrong!

No lamb around here. I'm going to my aunt's house for a late Easter dinner after 12PM church. IIRC, both ham and roast beef will be on the menu.

We didn't have a traditional Easter dinner. We had BBQ riblets, potatoes, onions and cheese cooked in foil on the BBQ,
baked beans, coleslaw, fruit salad, deviled eggs and cornbread. Waiting for pie. We're all too full right now! :wink:

Sweet basil, glad you posted. I've been wondering about you! What's going
on with you that you haven't been here much of late?

The Boss was working, so I had 2 hot dogs and El Gigante (the 15 year old, 6 foot 4 inch, 240 pounder) had leftover General Tso. Supper might be more of the same.?

We did get a LOT of work done around the place today.

A lightning strike Friday night blew out our cable TV at the power plant, so my shift yesterday was 12 hours of the Duke, Wagon Train, & Tales of Wells Fargo on DVD. This is the first time in over 25 years that I missed seeing The Ten Commandments with Charlton Heston on TV. I didn't really miss Chuck, bit I enjoy seeing Anne Baxter and Yvonne de Carlo in their prime. :wink:

Hello FH,
It is so nice to hear from you! I have been busy with job hunting and did some traveling early in the year; hopefully I'll get a job offer early next week. My email account connected to this account was highjacked recently, and whomever did it changed my information... I have missed "coming home" and reading all of the posts; but now, I am back!

Hope your Easter is going well. Your dinner sounds so good; we had deviled eggs too as part of the menu, but no pie!

What the heck is a "riblet"?

What the heck is a "riblet"?

A riblet is an alternative to ribs. The actual riblet is the portion of
a loin back rib (or baby back rib) that is cut off at the top
(nearest the back bone) to give the rib a more uniform look.
Loin back ribs don't always have this removed.

These were pork and you buy them in a 5 lb or 10 lb box,( Farmland
brand here). They are meaty and delicious. I just season them,
put them on tinfoil
and cook them on the BBQ grill. If we want BBQ sauce on them, I put them
in a pan and pour the BBQ sauce on them and cook them for just a little
bit in the oven.
