We had our 4th of July BBQ on July 6th. The Pony came out, and Hick grilled some sausages. We had gone shopping for provisions on Thursday, but could find no bratwursts! And the sausage patties were not what we like. They were all jalapeno, cheddar, and jalapeno cheddar. I tried a different store on Saturday, with the same result. Although they DID have a pack of four cheddar/bacon patties. I bought a pack of sausage, even thought it meant I would have to make my own patties. I also got some hamburger.
I picked up The Pony, and we whipped up some baked beans. Then started on the patty-making. I have a device that you can plop the meat onto, and squeeze down the lid. It takes more time, but you don't get your hands all fatty while making hamburgers or sausage patties.
We took the easy route this time. Simple food from the freezer.
I worry about Hick's appetite. He had a single sausage patty! And two hash browns, a few onion rings, baked beans, and part of an onion he stole off my plate while I was in the bathroom. Hick never said he wanted onion!
The Pony had a hamburger and a sausage patty. He really liked the onions rings, but not so much the hash browns. Baked beans and a southwest salad completed The Pony's meal. Along with a rum and Coke. The hamburger was left over, and half of the salad, plus a hash brown.
I had a hamburger, onion rings, hash brown, pickle and (most of) an onion, with a salad and ample ketchup and mayo. It was quite tasty, and I finished all but the salad.
The Pony had sausage patties and hamburgers to take home. Along with some desserts. I found a cherry pie for Hick. And some "turtle" brownies, blueberry bread, and mini strawberry donuts. The Pony took home all the S'mores cookies that we found on Thursday. Fine with me. It's not a flavor I like. Hick will have that cherry pie all to himself. I'm not a fan of pie.
We'll be having leftovers for a few days.
