Easter Dinner, whatcha having?

[Scottw]

It'll be a banner day up here at the lake house. Boat is in the water, furniture is on the deck and the cigars have been picked.

But, what's being cooked?

I got a 15 pound Prime Rib Roast that will be herb crusted, roasted and served with Horseradish cream sauce

A 17 pound Turkey that I brined in water, apple juice, tarragon, thyme, sage, rosemary and garlic for the past 30 hours. I am going to smoke it over hickory and put Scotch, Dr. Pepper and Apple Juice in a spray bottle to spray the bird down to create a glaze on it while smoking.

The dough is proofing for the spinach bread and olive bread

Penne ala Vodka (mom's recipe)

And homemade Sangria and other sides to pig out on.

Homemade Cannoli, chocolate covered strawberries, cheesecake, brownies and fruit for dessert. And oh yes, many CC's to smoke in between.

What about you?

PS: Breads are done, we made spinach and white cheddar, chipolte and monterey jack and yellow cheddar and a cured black olive and garlic bread. And the cigar selection has been made.
