April 16, 2014---Brent’s in Brandon, Mississippi


There is something I forgot to report from yesterday, and it is very important.  We were going around town looking for Brent’s smoker and as we came off I-20 in Pearl, there before us was a Dunkin Donuts.  It had been a long time since either of us had seen one so we whipped in and bought a few.  Our kids were raised on Dunkin and look how sweet they all turned out!

Bill had some errands to go on today and so did Brent and I.  When we got back home, Brent started smoking the ribs.  The whole process took about three hours.  I think the entire neighborhood could smell ribs.  He uses apple wood chips.  Other than that, I haven’t a clue as to how he does them.  

Mike, Amy, and their girls ate with us.  Brent fixed a potato and onion concoction he baked in the oven.  As usual, it was really good.  He also had baked beans and hot bread.  Nobody went away hungry.

Brent and Willie came out to our house for a visit tonight.  That is always fun to have them here.  Willie usually finds a place to lie down.  He covers a big part of the floor.  He has no trouble being a speed bump here.  He takes up a lot of space when he stretches out.
