I'm with you Joe....never gets old. Ya cook a different meat each time and it's a whole new meal. Both my wives loved for me to cook on the grill as much as they could....meant they were only heating veggies for the meal, cause the meat was up to me....

Mine would agree with that. Most of the time with such a large grill surface, I grill abt 4 days to a week's worth at one shot.

I have used a Weber for both grilling and smoking for most of my life and often wished I had more space. Two racks of ribs was pushing it. I could smoke a turkey on it but there wasn't a lot of indirect space so the outside parts usually got too done. With this grill when the brisket was almost up to temp I put on a half dozen burgers and a package of hot dogs along with the almost 15 pound brisked and could have put as much again.

I pulled the lambs off our spotted ewe this morning. Depending on her condition in a month or so we may breed her when we let all the other ewes in with the ram in October. She has been getting some feed because of the lambs so she may be too fat. I think she was ready to quit nursing anyway and it didn't seem to bother her much but the lambs bawled so much they got hoarse.

I'm sure they will adjust rather quickly with such good pasture around them....

 

[Mike CHS]

It doesn't take long for them to adjust. They didn't know the two wethers in the paddock with them. I'm going to put Hoss in with them since they have been together since the lambs were born.

Silence of the lambs. Haha.
The beef farm East of us is close enough, I can hear the calves bawling when they get weaned. Man, they hate it.

I wean our lambs in a pen next to the pasture the ewes are in. They cry a few days, but soon settle down. The ewes bed down next to the fence, so both ewes and lambs can see each other.

 

[Mike CHS]

They are in joining paddocks. The ewe hasn't been over to them at all during the day but we have sheep in 3 different paddocks that share a common corner where they all bed down at night. I'm still giving the lambs some feed so they aren't too unhappy.
