BGE paying dividends. My kids cooked me the best dinner ever.

You are blessed!

Thanks all.  And @caliking is correct.  My son is the workhorse in the family.  Although my daughter did 90% of the work on this meal.

Outstanding looking meal! 

Foghorn

Thanks @Smokeydawg.

Hotch

I bet you were grinning from ear to ear all evening!!
Truly an amazing evening with family and friends.
Nicely done sir!!

Outstanding... you have done a great job planting that cooking seed in them... enjoy the rewards!

After getting over the fact you passed only a few miles from the house. Let me just say (directed to your children) 

Foghorn

Thanks @Hotch - yes I was unable to suppress my smile all night - not that I tried.

Thanks @JohnnyTarheel.

Thank you @northGAcock, I didn't realize I was that close to your place on one (or both) of my drives.  But if I stopped at your place I would have missed this meal.

Tell them I get back from a business trip next Tuesday. I'll send them my address.

Props to them (and to you) for the wonderful meal. 

@GrateEggspectations, unfortunately my daughter returns to law school Tuesday morning.  Otherwise I'd be happy to rent them out - if the price were right.

Top tier post all around.
Family time well spent.

What a nice thing to come home to. Great kids and a perfect looking meal. 

Foghorn

Thanks @Focker and @Eggdicted_Dawgfan.  It was indeed great family time.

You are one blessed Dad!

Thanks @The Cen-Tex Smoker, @StillH2OEgger, and @Ozzie_Isaac.

I actually have to give credit to the folks on this site for a good portion of this.  Having my son cook and butcher with Cen-Tex, @20stone, @caliking, and others has really helped me and my son improve our game - and apparently some of that has transmitted to my daughter.  Although she has done some cooking with those clowns as well so they deserve a lot of the credit.  Thank you guys.

The cooking we did with your daughter was hard core. She’s awesome. 

For those that don’t know, she met @20stone, @caliking, TFJ, and I at OBR Hurricane harvey relief. Long ass days in the August TX heat in a parking lot and she smiled and cranked out work the whole time. 

These kids are something special. Both great ones.

Very awesome, my son is just starting to show interest in cooking so I hope he gets to this level some day. Great family you have and sounds like you raised them right!

I am in awe. This great post gives me hope for my own kid. I would just about keel over if he ever did anything like this for me.

I (we) have met their parents. They certainly get their endearing qualities from mom. 

THEBuckeye

Did they do the dishes too?

NDG

VERY NICE !!

Okay you can go ahead and write the will.

Foghorn

Thank you @Brisket_Fanatic and @Florida Grillin Girl.  Good luck with your kids.  However, I'm probably an example of better of lucky than good.  

Thanks @caliking.  You're perspective is always appreciated.  

@THEBuckeye, my wife and I were so pleased that we jumped up from dinner and started doing the dishes.  We wanted to make sure this behavior was very positively reinforced.  

Thanks @NDG.

@Gulfcoastguy, that's a great point.  I may just do that.  They passed the test.
