Month: July 2006

Just kidding. I guess if you don’t have any local Maverick gas stations or don’t watch tv, you might not get that corny line. But regardless, I would like to post a review on the fat free frozen yogurt at Maverick. It is DIVINE! They have different flavors at different locations, but at the one near our place, they currently have Chocolate, New York Cheesecake, Mint, and Georgia Peach. That last one is my favorite, even though I haven’t even tried the other flavors. But a cone of it is 89 cents, on sale this week for 79 cents (woohoo)! The best part is that you help yourself, so you can mix flavors, and pile it as high as you feel appropriate! The only thing is that you have to eat it really quickly especially if you get a foot-high cone of it, or else it will melt all over your car. So even if you do nothing else today, go try the frozen yogurt at Maverick–it’s delicious and nutritious (well, kind of)!

As part of a new area of McBlog, we are going to have reviews of places Joy and I eat at, movies we see, and anything else we feel like rating. Tonight, the award for Best BBQ in Utah goes out to Ryan Gardners home style BBQ in Spanish Fork UT. HOLY MOLEY! We ate some of the finest, juiciest, most tender Hickory BBQ things I had ever eaten. And you can tell they were good b/c I don’t even know what part of the animal it was and I still enjoyed it! Thanks Ryan for opening my eyes to slow charcoal cooking BBQ. I would highly reccomend paying Ryan 20 bucks to get him to cook at your next party. He has to earn enough money to pay off the wireless electronic meat thermometer which he claims is one of his secrets. His grilled pineapple is pretty dang good too, but Ryan I think you need to figure out something to grill that can have chocolate on it. The pineapple should be a side with the meat. 😉 Thanks for the great food!
