Trying the smoker again, with better results I hope. Been going since 6:00am. Baby back ribs and a pork shoulder. Corn on the cob, broccoli and au gratin potatoes.
But before we eat, The Belmont! Still haven't completely decided on who to bet on and root for. I just know I'm praying that everyone crosses the finish line safe and sound. It really is such a dangerous sport.

I have no idea. I'll wait around for ideas.
I'm glad you mentioned the Belmont. I totally forgot!

Uh, mystery meal?
Geez, I'm so busy teasing Daphne, I almost forgot to post what's for dinner. I'm thinking grilled Italian sausage and pepper sandwiches and grilled corn on the cob.

LOL! I'm going to have to wait a bit to make it. I don't have access to some of the ingredients. And I can't go to the city for another week or so.

I'm making short ribs with cheddar dill cornbread. Love Ina Garten
6 Beef Short Ribs, trimmed of fat
Kosher Salt And Freshly Ground Black Pepper
¼ cup Good Olive Oil
1 ½ cups Chopped Onion (2 Onions)
4 cups Large-Diced Celery (6 Large Stalks)
2 Carrots, peeled and large-diced
1 small Fennel, fronds, stems, and core removed, large-diced
1 Leek, cleaned and large-diced, white part only
3 Garlic Cloves, finely chopped
1 (750-ml) Bottle Burgundy Or Other Dry Red Wine
Fresh Rosemary Sprigs
Fresh Thyme Sprigs
6 cups Beef Stock
1 Tbsp Brown Sugar
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Place the short ribs on a sheet pan, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and roast for 15 minutes. Remove from the oven. Reduce the oven temperature to 300 degrees F.
Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a large Dutch oven and add the onion, celery, carrots, fennel, and leek and cook over medium-low heat for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the garlic and cook for another 2 minutes. Pour the wine over the vegetables, bring to a boil, and cook over high heat until the liquid is reduced by half, about 10 minutes. Add 1 tablespoon salt and 1 teaspoon pepper. Tie the rosemary and thyme together with kitchen twine and add to the pot.
Cheddar Dill Cornbread -
Ingredients:
3 cups All-Purpose Flour
1 cup Yellow Cornmeal
¼ cup Sugar
2 Tbsp Baking Powder
2 tsp Kosher Salt
2 cups Milk
3 Extra-Large Eggs, lightly beaten
½ pound (2 sticks) Unsalted Butter, melted, plus extra to grease the pan
8 ounces Aged Extra-Sharp Cheddar, grated, divided
1 cup Minced Fresh Dill
Directions:
Combine the flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl. In separate bowl, combine the milk, eggs, and butter. With a wooden spoon, stir the wet ingredients into the dry until most of the lumps are dissolved. Don't overmix! Mix in 2 cups of the grated Cheddar and the dill, and allow the mixture to sit at room temperature for 20 minutes.
Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9 by 13 by 2-inch baking pan.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan, smooth the top, and sprinkle with the remaining grated Cheddar. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool and cut into large squares. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Jean, I hope you enjoy your mystery dinner!
Denise, I love short ribs! That sounds like a delicious dinner
We're having chicken satay with a peanut dipping sauce and cucumber relish. I'll probably serve it with some kind of rice pilaf.

Beer Can chickens on the grill. Had the chicken Taquitos Karyn posted awhile back for lunch! Those are a real hit in this house! I made them with leftover smoked pulled pork. A keeper! Thanks Karyn!
