Well, we didn't make it "today", but rather Friday/Saturday for the Graduation party on Saturday. Twas a BBQ brunch.

Brisket.

Chicken and sage sausage.

Pulled pork (butt in crockpot... turns out amazingly good).

BBQ meatballs in the other crock-pot.

Honey baked beans (in the other crock-pot... yes I LOVE my crock-pots!)

Corn on the cob, mac and cheese and potato salad (*with hard boiled eggs )

We also did a cool breakfast taco station, with egg, bacon and cheddar soft tacos, with homemade guacamole, sour cream and Julio's salsa (omg ... *best* salsa ever).

The cooking was the majority of the work, but keeping everything either on ice pans or in hot water pans, to keep it from spoiling over a period of several hours was a bit of work too. I don't ever want someone getting sick from something I served, and it's tricky keeping it all at healthy temps to keep away bacteria. Especially in Texas summer heat.

Fed about 30 people, and still have leftovers. The glory of that is I don't have to cook for the next few days.

Good eats, good people, good time.
