 Guess I've become a cheap bastard...my father's day plan was to smoke some baby back pork ribs. Miso glazed ribs on the Weber Torpedo (a trusty weapon for the porkaterian). I'll get over my mini-rant soon, OK?. Baby-back ribs at our local supermarket (aka King's)...

 Where'd it go? We gobbled it up tout suite. Here's the link to the recipe. My version doesn't require a food processor or microwave oven...
 (unkle jay, aka dubie ibold in greenhouse 5) the marijuana farm part 2 i think not. not if you're a legal commercial pot grower in WA state. some devastating developments in 2014 have left 2015 looking pretty dismal for those in the biz. i managed the development of San Juan Sun Grown (SJSG), one of the first state licensed cannabis growers in the USA. last March i was fully engaged (and enthusiastic) acquiring building permits and lining up sub contractors, etc. to build a tier 3 wa. state liquor control board(lcb) certified pot farm. exciting times in a chaotic 'budding' new industry...

shazzamm this one's a keeper. stewing fresh apricots with some sugar, smashed garlic and a dollop of miso. use as marinade and basting sauce for anything you throw on the grill. also a delicious condiment/dipping sauce. next time i'm going to try finishing off a plate w/ spoonfuls glaze and creme fraiche.
