I'm an old school snowboarder who loves being on the mountain with my family. Back in the day we would ride a few lifts to the top of the mountain, then start hiking to nearby peaks spending less time in the actual resort and more time out in the mountains. Family, snowboarding is more about the resort and the lodge, I wanted to get some of that mountain time back so Emma and I decided to have lunch in the trees. Emma is crazy about meat, a natural born carnivore so I grilled beef ribs, sausages and shrimp on the 5" G2 Ti Firebox Stove using charcoal briquettes on a raised Adjustable Fire Grate under the Extended Grill Plate. Great lunch that stuck with us for the rest of the day! The best of times!
Hey Emma.
Hi.
Where's mom?
She's going back to the lodge to hide.
Okay.
It's just you and me then, huh?
Yep.
Alright.
Let's go.
So Emma and I are going to take a couple runs and then we're going to find a place in the
trees and we're going to have a barbecue lunch.
I have shrimp, sausages, and some beef boneless ribs that are really good.
So.
Okay.
You ready?
Yep.
You ready?
I'm following you.
Alright.
Did you see where I passed you and then I kind of went over a hill it kind of made
me go woo.
I wasn't expecting it to be as much of a hill as what it was.
The little one that you like, that one, I get a little bit of air on that.
It's fun.
You do?
Yeah.
So you want to do another run before we get out the firebox?
Yeah.
Let's do one more.
Alright.
One more run.
I want to go fast though.
I don't want to go in the park.
Alright.
Let's go over to the side then.
Alright.
Sounds good.
Hey.
How was that?
That was fun.
Really flat.
Okay.
We could find a place back here where we could tuck in and get a firebox going.
Yeah, like up here in these trees.
I'm kind of sorry to fly away.
No.
So I have to decide.
Let's just set up right here.
Alright.
There we go.
Look at that.
Looks good.
Snowy kitchen.
There's our little snowshoe table.
I don't know how we'll get out though.
Yeah, you might be stuck.
We would figure it out.
Look, I can stand right here pretty good.
I've got a nice good spot.
And then I can just be like, whoo.
And be like, it's easy.
These are mesquite charcoal.
So this should taste good.
I'm just going to move these around a little bit so that all our heat isn't just focused
right there in the center.
Get some of these charcoals that are down below.
Put them in the corners.
That'll absorb some of that heat.
That looks good.
Hold it careful.
I'll try to get this lemon cut.
My fingers don't work very well.
It's so cold.
Let's see if this beef can do it.
These are ribs, so they're really tasty.
Yeah.
Is it good?
Yeah.
Does it need some lemon?
No.
Pass it over.
You almost put the same side down.
There we go.
That was interesting.
Hold both ends.
Carefully.
There we go.
Look at that.
Just how I like it.
That's the last one.
That's the nice thing about dropping stuff in snow.
It's not near as bad as dropping stuff in dirt.
It's not as hot as the shrimp was.
Yeah, it's still pretty red in the middle.
This sausage is so good.
Well, should we put on those last four shrimp?
Yeah.
The rest of the family is back at the truck having bagels.
Bagels and turkey.
Turkey sandwiches, huh?
Yeah.
Oh, that's so good.
There's the tracks.
Woohoo!
Hi!
They're scared.
