Grandson loves s'mores

stemc33

Fun day on the BGE today. Started with a simple spatchcock rubbed with the @Mickey rub. Extra large baked potatoes, asparagus, and finished off with s'more cones. Not sure who to give credit for the s'mores idea, but I got the idea from the forum. Thanks to whoever was the originator. My grandson loved em. Here's some pics.

Looks great, but now I got that "s-apostrophe-m-o-r-e" song from the dairy queen commercial stuck in my head. Thanks!!! ( and I typed that as sarcastically as I knew how).

) @Biggreenpharmacist‌ . Never seen the commercial before so I just watched it on YouTube. Kinda catchy.

Looks good, all of it!

Little guy is too cute, bringing him up right, spoiling him rotten with treats off the egg.

Very catchy tune. Mini cones with chocolate chips and mini marsmallows work as well. Yours look fantastic.

Biggreenpharmacist

Yeah its really catchy. Makes me wanna catch my hair on fire to burn it outa my brain. I watch a lot of old tv reruns on tv land and it comes on ALL the time. AAAAAAAGHHHH! On a lighter note, I'm gonna show those pics to my boys tomorrow. I bet we'll be having those soon.

@Biggreenpharmacist‌ . The s'mores were kind of weird. I kept waiting for the tops to brown up and after waiting for what seemed forever, I touched the top of the marshmallow to find a hard crust. When I picked a little of the crust away, I was surprised with lots of goo. Even though there's lots of goo, it's still cleaner to eat than old fashion s'mores. Unless that is, your feeding a baby.

I'll be trying this out and I'll post pics in this thread of my boys enjoying them.

Pick up one of these and just brown each up in seconds.

A food torch will also give you another way to finish a protein after you sous vide it.  Also good for dessert.  

BTW...everything looks great!  Your grandson certainly enjoyed it.

I've got a blu-point torch for soldering. Looks just like that one. Its just fun to do something to involve the kiddos. My 3 year old already says my small egg is his. He got a thrill today just helping me scoop out all the gray "sand" out of it. "I yike sand daddy". His "L's" come out as "Y's". I love it.

@Tjcoley‌ . I think I'll have to try the chocolate chips next time. That seems like a good way to get a better mix of marshmallows and chocolate. Thanks for the idea.
