Not really a 'Father' - (but we do have 3 furry little rescued 'kids' that p**p in a box) - but yeah, I'll be out there trying to crank out something interesting.

I am cooking by choice. We are doing filet mignon and grilled shrimp, My wife is whipping up the sides and a salad. Throw in some good tunes and cold beer and you have a great Father's Day dinner. Happy Father's day to everyone out there. PS....That Southside Jalepeno Cheddar sausage that BP bought is some of the best sausage I have ever eaten.

Hello everyone,
Today, I decided to cook a meal for my father. The dish consisted of a few of his favorites: a meaty steak, french fries, corn on the cob, and fruit dumplings for dessert.
I began by preparing a few potatoes by scrubbing and chopping them into strips. These strips were tossed in some garlic olive oil and placed on an oiled pan in the smoker. I also prepared the corn on the cob by wrapping it in tin foil and placing it alongside the fries.
I put the prime rib-eye on the smoker after I took the fries out of it. The steak required nothing special, just a coat of salt.
Some of the fries were tossed with white truffle oil, salt, ground pepper, and bbq rub.
For the fruit dumplings, my partner and I peeled and cored apples, and chopped up strawberries. The apples and strawberries were both placed in the microwave, which was put on 50% power to soften them up. We chopped the apples after removing them and letting them cool. Then, we took Pillsbury biscuit dough and stretched it out with a little flour.
We placed the fruit on top of the dough, and I sprinkled cinnamon sugar on top. We then folded the dough over the fruit to seal it in. The dumplings were then placed in the smoker.
After I removed them from the smoker, the dumplings were served with some more cinnamon sugar and ice cream.
Enjoy.
