So Wednesday was the last BBQ at 843 Santa Barbara. It was really a good one!
The owners live upstairs and can't handle the fun and smoke and dust from a charcoal grill. Finally, after we decided not to move out, they forced my hand and sent me a note saying I have to get rid of the charcoal grill. So that meant we needed to have one last suaree.
Anyway, I'll be moving out as soon as I find a new place, as I need to grill. Unfortunately, it looks like my roomies aren't interested in moving.
Ah yes, the BBQ! Steaks! About as many as I've ever done. 9 to be exact. 3 NY Strips from Henry's, and one 16oz ribeye that looked as good as any I've ever seen, and 3 more NY strips, and then two more NY strips. I got the fire going, then choked it. By the time I was ready to cook, it had gone cold, so I stoked it, and it figures that only by the time the steaks were done did the fire really get rolling. Alas!
Juli made a really tasty slaw that didn't last. We both bought green cabbage 'round St. Paddy's day....suckers for green things are we both.
Wine was flowing, courtesy of Charles Shaw, his $2 bottles a bit hit with the crew. Chaewon brought over two Korean friends who were dancing in the living room, and it was quite the little party for a usually quiet Wednesday evening! All and all, well done!
