Around the Web

Here a few things to check out while strolling the interwebs:
Serious Eats
Josh of The Meatwave has a great writeup on smoking with the Weber kettle. I understand this process all too well.  As usual, Josh does a great job in documenting the steps and has the most amazing photos to round it out.
Food in Jars
Marisa has a incredibly informative post on splitting and scrapping a vanilla bean.  Although I don't have an immediate canning need for it, I do have a future brew need.  She's got a great video to go with it.
Dad Cooks Dinner
My fellow Ohioan, Mike, put up a touching post about cooking with his kids.  No matter what the age, kids are never too young to start playing, errr, working in the kitchen.  I remember my first time (in the kitchen)...do you remember yours?
Slim Pickin's Pork
Andrew is on the planking bandwagon and has some great looking salmon!  He also has some incredibly intriguing grilled caramelized oranges that I need to try.
Not Exactly Bento
Jenn has the most amazing picture of a crawfish boil which instantly made me very, very hungry.  It gives me a solid idea of a meal for our next Brew Day.  Also, I'm very humbled by Jenn's post naming me as one of her Fab 5 Bloggers.  Thanks, Jenn!
