Some people throw BBQ’s on Memorial Day. Some people on Fourth of July. Not me. I do my BBQing on Election Day! I got up about 10:30 this morning to go wait in line to cast my vote. Afterwards, we headed home and I fired up the grill. J works in an industry that causes her to stay late on election night, so we grabbed a couple pork butts from Kroger for her and her co-workers. Since I don’t need an excuse to BBQ, I was more than willing to offer my services. Just like last time, I’ll be updating during the day because I know J’s co-workers will be reading.

I can’t wait until I’m done with this bag. Anyway, here’s what they look like an hour in….

I love the idea of election day BBQing. I’ll put that on my calendar from now on, cause like you all I need is an excuse.
