What a Mess!!!

Yesterday, Chris and I decided we wanted something new to eat.  So we pulled out the Weber's Big Book of Grilling and found the chicken, cabbage, and potato recipes.  Then I knew we had to add a dessert, so I went to my favorite recipe books and found the pear pie recipe.

As we watched the many upsets of college football, we worked hard on preparations.  Chris grilled (with TWO grills) with the "help" from the doggies.  He had marinated the whole chicken last night and slow grilled it on the charcoal grill.  On the gas grill, he cooked up the whole cabbage that I had prepared with seasonings and then grilled the potatoes, onions, and bacon for the salad.  

Lastly, I had to get the pie in the oven so I frantically put it together.  The dinner was EXCELLENT and we have many leftovers.  The clean-up wasn't so excellent, ugh!  

Now, we are ready to sink our teeth into some of the pie and relax after all that work.
