BBQ/Kickball game

Last weekend we had the 3rd annual McCann family BBQ/Kickball game. Matt outdid himself this year on the BBQ. He cooked 20 POUNDS of pork shoulder in our smoker. It turned out so good! Here is the prep the night before.


Those babies went in the smoker at 6:00 am and cooked all day. Between the yummy rub on the outside and the injections of Cherry Dr. Pepper, they were delicious! I forgot to take an after picture and by the time I remembered, this is all that was left.

After we ate, it was time for the game!




Eliza helped herself to the Dabo's trampoline. Sorry about that...

Don't ask who won, I have no idea. All I know is someone was supposed to either shave their head or dye their hair pink but a last minute race decided that it was a tie.

Then Matt held a trivia game to win fabulous prizes. If you know Matt, you know that he LOVES random trivia.


By this time, it had dropped about 20 degrees so everyone packed up and headed home.

Thank you to everyone who came and helped out! Kim, the snicker-doodle bundt cake was TO DIE FOR. My fault there were no leftovers of that. :)

Maybe next year it will actually feel like spring!

Wow! Thanks for the shout out on your blog! :) Glad I didn't disappoint! Thanks for a fun day and you're right about the bbq...Matt really outdid himself! Now he has to live up to that standard every year. Next year I'll be sure to tell him "It wasn't your best."

That pork looks YUM! I should have charged Eliza for jumping on the tramp. 5 minutes for a pork sandwich!
