Spatch Chicken and livers

Options

Just Got home from a 6 Day Race Trip out West and the wife was stir crazy for my cooking. I went the easy route and did a Spatch chicken with DP Swamp Venom, but I wanted Livers as well. Call me sick call me gross or any other names you like but I love chicken livers. I dusted them with DP Red Eye and threw them on for an hour at 275 Direct.

Did my usual Okra and Tomato and tried a smokey olive oil and pineapple vinagrette that I made and tossed the okra in. I also did the usual portabella mushroom on the grill as well. All I had was Itallian Dressing so I used that, and then some garlic and goat cheese.

After a week of not touching my egg or the knife my wife was very vapy that I  can come home with grease all over my hands and smelling of nitro and still produce a meal.

The one thing that was the greatest she told me was she took down my SMU flag and put out the American flag in honor of our Veterans. It touched me deep inside because she always tells me she loves spending the day with her Veteran. I think from now on I will spend it with her and not race.

    Cool, I like to pull for the small pro teams that don"t have the mega bucks to back them, thats what drag racing was all about back in the day. Del would be great to work for, good luck.

    +1 I used to race brackets, back in the day until things started getting high tech.  Car and driver were not as much of a factor as money and gadgets.  It stopped being fun for me.  I still watch.

    Yeah, a bit, but not for that reason. I think of the purpose of a liver and can't wrap my little brain around eating it after that. I'm probably totally wrong, but mentally it weirds me out.
