What is there to say, but “Keep ’em coming!”? 🙂
My brother-in-law is the family mixologist crafting scratch cocktails using only the freshest ingredients. While Keith manned the bar, I grilled up the garnishes. This is what happens when my one of my favorite slider recipes (made with beef instead if turkey) and my Cajun Shrimp Skewers collide in a nice big Bloody Mary!
