Got them in there on the 1st hour on the rack, just rub. Next hour will be in pans with some brown sugarwater, last hour has the "oh yeah" sauce on it.

I'm shooting for a better "bite through" skin this time. If not, it's still pretty tasty. Have the inlaws comin' over tonight.

And! I'm making a cake.
Sure as hell beats the hell out of my grilled burgers and peach pie ala mode dinner for my parents...
