But some red beans and rice always go good with a set up like that for me. And an Ice cold Brew with a chaser of the CSM's finest hooch!

I like mine with lettuce and tomato, Heinz 57 and french fried potatoes. Big kosher pickle and a cold glass beer.

I just bought a nice big rib roast at COSTCO that yielded about 16 1.5" ribeyes for the grill. I can't wait to get some marinade on them and throw them on the coals.

Anyone who's ever been around Kansas City knows of the Gates BBQ. They sell BBQ sauces that kick ass. My favorite is the hot and spicy, which works for Burgers and Chicken.

You cannot throw a rock without hitting Gates, and yes it is indeed some damn fine stuff. Thankfully KC is a haven for BBQ and there are tons of mom and pop joints that are as good and maybe better then Gates.

As for what I will be using, I am not sure yet but with all the rib eyes that I was able to cut I am sure I will be trying a variety of marinades. I am also thinking of going and grabbing another roast or two and freezing them for the time being. In addition to the roast I have 2 full slabs of pork ribs and a slab of baby backs that I will be doing. I know that one of the slabs will be done with Chinese 5 spice and a hoisin sauce. You do them slow and low in the oven, like 225 for 4 or 5 hours and then finish them quickly on the grill with the sauce. If I had a proper smoker I would use that instead, but until I have that the oven will do.
