I'm cooking Ginger Lime Chicken Skewers tonight on the egg. Man Oh' Man are these good.
Just sliced 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts into thin strips and now they are marinating. Click the recipe above.

Not too shabby. I'm usually anti-commercial when it comes to rubs/sauces; I prefer to make my own...but that Dizzy Pig site has piqued my interest  Are you making top-notch Q with those rubs or are they closer to Mrs. Dash?

On another note, we went to the "Ribfest" last year in Indianapolis (BBQ restaurants came from all over the US, it wasn't a local deal), and if I could sum it up in one word, it would be: "Whack". They had these oversized monstrosities of stands, kinda like the outside of a carnival game....they were all adorned by the obscure awards they had won nationwide, etc. The Q was astronomically expensive, like $10 for a pulled pork sandwich. The food itself was really sub-par. I saw several stands simply grilling ribs...no low+slow whatsoever (maybe I'm wrong though and you can make championship ribs that way). The flavors in most of what I sampled was pretty bland, and these places were hawking their sauces like crazy. I'm not being a snob, I just got a bad taste in my mouth for some of the Q joints that sell rubs/sauces, I guess.

I'm a BBQ snob. I would not have spent 10 bucks on a sandwich that I could not get a sample of the Q first. I make better Q than most joints I've been to, kinda like I prepare steaks better than most restaurants.

Man, these were awesome!
Freshly marinated chicken breasts on the grill.
Looking good! They tasted even better!
