Honey glazed ham, love it!

Lazy monday, kings day in the Netherlands, and the weather is goohood! Again! Even though all the weather guys and dolls told us otherwise.

I have a little ham lying around that’s just begging me to be eaten today. Who am I to disappoint such a nice little ham?
After careful consideration of the ham’s feelings, I kind of pushed him to go into a nice honey glaze on the OTP using the indirect grilling method. He agreed, and so it shall be done.

Spring Satay sticks on the grill

Last weekend, I decided it was about time to lite the Q again. It was way overdue, since I had some very busy weekends and no time to grill anything. I needed to smell the charcoal and meat again, as well as dive into some marinade with my bare hands. If you’re addicted, you need to keep your addiction alive, I guess.

Spicy Baked Beans from the DO

tired sunday afternoon turning into a super meal with friends

Yesterday I returned from a sailing contest in the Netherlands, and was pretty beat. I actually didn’t feel much for lighting the Q and getting some food prepped, but fortunately I have some fantastic neighbours / friends. Once they all came in, in combination with the kids, we threw some content of the combined fridges together and worked out a pretty decent meal, if I may say so.

We started out with pancakes for the kids, as that is always a good thing. We had six of them, so my wife made a nice pile of them and they were gone in the blink of an eye. Once they were fed like hungry wolves, we proceeded with the bedding process. 30 minutes later, all six of them were gone and we could focus on the food for the adults ;-).
