Not much to look at but this meal was really, really good. I took notes while watching the the Potato edition of The French Chef
This was our actual Fourth of July dinner. Grilled steak with really runny Julia Child (made from notes I took from The French Chef) Scalloped Potatoes. Looks wise: super unimpressive. Taste wise: a good solid average. (Which really equals unimpressive, right?)
This is our Day After Fourth of July feast. Much better in looks and taste. We've got Everything Burgers, Grilled Chicken Leg Quarters, Macaroni Salad and Coleslaw. Obviously we had a gluttony issue to make up for the lack of Celebratory-Worthy Food the previous day.
See that smoke? We were burning the last logs of three trees we fell. Fire + hotdog = that face. You might be confused, but I can assure you, that is a happy face.
This nasty looking concoction was dessert for our fire/hotdog dinner. Take a banana, peel one section back and make 1/2" slices. Take out every other slice and eat them. Fill the gaps left alternating chocolate chips and marshmallows. Put the peel back and wrap the whole thing in tin foil. Lay the package on hot coals and flip after five minutes. After a total of ten minutes, unwrap and enjoy the ooey, gooey, chocolate-y, marshmallow-y goodness. Words (and even pictures) are not enough here.
