Dish Pan Hands

I’ve started many a blog on here with “I love BBQing.”

I still do – it is something I really enjoy. But I’m learning the my love comes at a cost.

Dishes. Dirty dishes pile up quickly during a BBQ.

Having separate plates for the raw meat and the cooked meat, needing dishes to combine ingredients to mix things up before tossing on the grill, bowls to make marinades, knives, forks and spoons used to cook with and as serving utensils. . .

And it all increases if I have company over to enjoy my BBQ home cookin.

I love having company over, especially for a good BBQ. It is awesome to be able to share, and even better watching people’s reactions to my cooking.

But the DISHES!

Oy!

They pile up so high after a BBQ.

And cleaning out the BBQ is a big task. I get covered in layers of greasy black goo so thick, you can literally peel it off.

But the joy of BBQing shines over the dirty dishes – piled high in my sink.

I’ll do those dishes later.

Time to BBQ.
