Enjoyed Grilling for Memorial Day!

West Haven, Connecticut
May 26, 2026 9:18am CST
Yesterday was memorials day for us here in America and the entire weekend was raining all the way until 1 pm yesterday. I was soo happy to see the sun coming out and the rain finally stopping. I ended up seasoning a bunch of chicken drums and wings and grilling in my yard for a good 2 hours with my wife and kids. I found this Carolina sweet and tangy BBQ sauce which turned out to be amazing. We enjoyed lunch and the evening.

It was a miserable rainy weekend but glad the sun came out for you to enjoy some grilling. Your chicken sounds delicious with your sweet & tangy bbq sauce. Chicken on the grill certainly is a big thumbs up
