I'm sitting here watching dirty jobs and trying to keep my food down. What did I eat you ask? I had two peices of pizza for lunch and another peice of pizza for dinner along with some triscuits and ice cream. Now I know that everyone thinks that we in the Coats household eat like royalty, but today Holli is at a training and I am all by myself tonight. I am writing tonight because I have nothing else to do. SO now all three of our readers get a Cuban Wing Recipe. BBQ Chicken is one of my least favorite things to cook on the grill because I love red meat. This recipe however is up there with a good steak in my opinoin. The marinade has so much flavor it will make your taste buds explode! Add in the smokey flavor from the BBQ and it is Wing Heaven. This recipe is so good I think I want to make it next week, let's see if Holli will go for it. Also if anyone tries a recipe let me know what to think. This blog will be in vain if no one tries anything.
