[donotprint]So, y’all know that I’m hosting a Grillin’ Beans BBQ at my house on Friday.

I went to the store today and bought thick delicious juicy looking pork chops, drumsticks (for the kids) and Texas size chicken quarters to serve as the main dishes; I got corn on the cob to grill and turn into corn and jalapeno salad, watermelon for a sweet surprise, potatoes for a chilled potato vinaigrette salad and more.  All of these items will complement the deliciousness of my star side dish, Bush’s Grillin’ Beans.

Do you see the gorgeous gleam of that Cobalt Blue Emile Henry Dutch Oven?  I kind of want to carry that with me, it’s that gorgeous and amazing.

The lovely people of Bush’s Beans sent me a Grillin’ Kit – with Grillin’ Tools, that amazingly delicious Dutch Oven, a cute Bush’s Beans Apron and a $50 Visa card to help out with my Cookout and if y’all stay tuned, you’ll get a chance to win one.

I can’t even begin to tell y’all how much I love the filtered afternoon sun is when it’s gleaming off that Dutch Oven as it’s cookin’ on my Grill.

This post is part of a sponsored project in conjunction with Bush’s Beans.  My opinions, recipes, thoughts, ideas, etc.. are completely my own.  I am being compensated for my participation however, Bush’s won my heart when they sent flowers and a card after my FIL’s passing and allowed me to stay on even though my participation didn’t fit into the outlined time parameters.  Bush’s rocks.  period.

I <3 Edelman, too 😉

  3. Favorite memory of a family cook out was in Michigan with my family on a summer vacation. Of course it included Bush’s grillin’ bourbon brown sugar beans!
