I'm very proud of my son......

Yesterday was a beautiful day!!!!!

Had a few refreshments.

We did some ribs. Only trimmed the flap and removed the membrane. To lazy to cut into St. Louis cut.
Smoked with pecan wood at 245-265

Here it's plated. Ribs were good. A little over cooked.

This made my day. My son finally learned how to use his bike with no training wheels. Took 3 sessions of 1 hour so but on Sunday he told me that he wanted to practice more and for me to leave him alone.

I did it old school style. No helmet and long sleeve shirt in case he falls.

Here are 2 Instagram videos.

Food looks awesome. One of these days this summer (hopefully) I learn to ride a bike (and I'm 42).

The food looks great as always!

Its great that your boy is riding without training wheels, he's growing up.
It's sad that your boy is riding without training wheels, he's growing up.

That's how I felt when my kids started riding without training wheels.

Man, does that bring back memories. Thanks for the videos. I've got 2 boys and remember every second of them learning to ride their bikes. Ribs look great too!
That said, I agree with Big George about the helmet. My youngest has had 3 concussions that he got from falling on the sidewalk(well he did run into another kid at a full run), and 2 skateboard falls. He broke his helmet on both skateboard falls so you don't have to be going fast.

Sounds like a perfect day!

In my day there was not any helmets for bike riders. I fell a few times, and there was no apparent damage, a few times and there was no apparent damage, a few times and there was no apparent damage. :doh: I do believe in using a helmet for the young-uns. Great times and grand memories for all. Ribs ain't bad looking either.

Blessings, ray:

Congrats on the bike riding and those tasty looking ribs! I taught my Grandson to ride last year, and he can ride in a straight line pretty good, however turning is a problem. :doh:
