fathers day advice

suggest Ron sleeps although I will be grilling johnsonville bratwurst and opening beans..i hope he sleeps all day..he could use it.

Gotta love those Johnsonville brats! 1/2 of my family was born in Sheboygan, Wisc. It was my father's home town. I've been eating that bratwurst ever since I can remember. Vaguely remember attending "Bratwurst Day" festivities in Sheboygan, when I was a child.

I still make bratwurst the Sheboygan way, well almost. Boil them in beer for about 10 min. I leave out the butter and onions though. That's the way I had them originally. Beer, butter & onions. There's so much fat in brats, I just can't see wasting the butter on them, and dh doesn't like onions.

After a quick boil, on the charcoal grill they go. Gotta be charcoal. Just don't taste the same on a gas grill. My mother makes german potato salad, and ya gotta have sauerkraut! Yah! And brown mustard! Yummy!

It's almost Father's Day! And in the spirit of this thread, I sent my dad a big box o' meat!

I used to have a local-to-my-folks grocery delivery that carried the best, most epic, uncured ham, but that grocery delivery service went out of business. So sad.

So this year, I sent some things from US Wellness Meats, https://grasslandbeef.com/. They had some lovely fully cooked options which is great since my folks are not always feeling up to cooking these days.

Suing him for passing on his gout to me!.....

Naw....got him a walking cane that, a la James Bond, doubles as a "grabber" (grappler?).  

So now he doesn't even have to bend down to get those beers from the bottom shelf of the fridge!.....
