6 more weeks of winter.....to be honest, it really doesn't even feel like winter has even started yet. I think I've shoveled twice so far and neither time was much of anything. Same for the last few years really. The Merrimack Valley used to get crushed regularly by now and there's literally nothing on the ground in february.February.

This weekend will be the first time I break out my winter coat this year. I think I only broke it out 3 or 4 times last year. But there's nothing to see here.

I hope the groundhog bit the guy. Such a rude thing to do.

This Murdaugh trial is wild.

Turns out it was the accountant of the law firm and the paralegal that caught Murdaugh hiding money. Judge seems to be leaning to allowing the prosecution to bring in the financial crimes as motive for him killing his son and wife. The kicker is that the guy's own attorney's opened the door for this to happen when they played a video as well as bringing it up.

When I was in college I had a Dutch roommate who was obsessed with groundhogs (UConn’s infested with the things). They don’t have them in the Netherlands and he thought they were the coolest thing for some reason.
You all should have seen his face when I told him we have a whole day dedicated to them haha

Rays and Stubbs are both fine store bought options, but bbq sauce is so easy to make and tailor to your specific tastes.

Exactly. Easiest thing in the world to whip up.

Squeeze some ketchup, add cumin, onion powder, garlic, paprika, brown sugar (optional), and any other seasonings (chipotle powder, cayenne, smoked paprika, any other dried pepper variant, etc.), a little bit of apple cider vinegar, stir, and you've got a great and easy BBQ sauce that you can control the heat on. You could even whip in some dr. pepper or root beer for added flavors.

I can do it*.

*Go to the store and buy enough flavors of Stubbs to last a year.
I get it. It's far easier to just by it, but I'm a bbq snob, so I prefer to do my own rubs and sauces when possible. I'm also very critical of the places everyone dubs the best around. Been to BT's Smokehouse in Sturbridge a bunch of times, and it was just voted the best in MA in a national poll. It's good but not the greatest, IMO. Dry rub is a little weak. Sauces are too runny. But for a restaurant, it's good.

Yep. Easy to make and more importantly customize it to your flavor profile preference. That's why I make my own dry rubs too, despite their being a million readily available mixes.

Funniest Ground Hog Day ever.

We know. You are the ten time Olympic champ at that.
