Ross and Rebecca’s BBQ

It’s Memorial Weekend and it reminds me that people are having backyard BBQ’s. These photos are from Ross & Rebecca’s Kentucky Derby/Cinco De Maya/Hinkle Birthday party.

When I got there, Ross had these pretty awesome ribs out. Although my compliment was rather insulting, when I said there were parts that I liked where it tasted like Beef Jerky.

By the way, my fellow foodie Dan Delaney is getting a lot of press for his upcoming BrisketLab. Pretty cool. Can’t wait. I got my order in for a pound.

Aaron made this pretty tasty hot sauce paste for the R&R BBQ. I like it. Let me see if I can get a recipe to post.

Rebecca made this Pecan Pie. I usually don’t eat sweets, but I had two slices! The next Top 10 Pastry Chefs in America Awards and Dessert Tasting is coming in about a week. I need to prepare.

I made this Men In Black Mashup to celebrate this Memorial Weekend. Here come the MIBs!

Crif Dogs in Brooklyn

Last night went to see my friends, Ape School, at the Music Hall of Williamsburg. They got a cool new 7″, Blame Mark Griffey —sort of an inside joke I take it back to my college days. They were great and play another show tonight (April 7th) at The Middle East in Boston with The War on Drugs, who were also really good last night.

I had a bad case of recognizing people last night. I met this guy Brian and the whole time I thought he was from Philly. We talked for a while, then it occurred to me that I’ve met him many times before, he lives in NY and we’ve been Facebook friends for a couple of years. I’m so stupid.

After the show, David took me to Crif Dogs (in Williamsburg?). I didn’t know there was one here in my backyard. Got the Good Morning Dog (bacon wrapped dog smothered with melted cheese and a fried egg). Did good after several beers. I kinda want one right now.

Crif Dogs - 555 Driggs Ave (btwn 7th St & 6th St) Brooklyn, NY 11211

Back to not being able to recognize people –We went to my friend, Sam’s birthday at Grand Victory (formerly Bruar Falls). Dance party! I saw a cute girl that my friend had just posted of her at DiFara’s pizza on FB. I Liked the photo and was bold enough to ask “Who that chick?” My friend said I already met her recently and had a long conversation about my White on White Rice video. Oh yeah. So this girl comes up and starts dancing with me after I smiled at her. I said, “I just saw you on Facebook with a big pizza!” And she was like “Nah, I’m not on Facebook”, then proceeded to rub her booty on me. Turns out pizza girl was there, but that wasn’t her. Anyway, this whole time all I needed to do was smile at girls?

Busta Rhymes vs Islands in the Stream

This is the most amazing thing I’ve ever put together I think. Okay, it’s not food related, but I got a sweet food post tomorrow.

I’m trying to think what name I should go under for these mashups. DJ Mash Potatoes? Or DjHam, which I use for all my porn accounts.

My Mashups: Mixed in Key

I wish this was a post on mashed potatoes or something food related. But just wanted to share these Mashups I just made, before they get taken down on Youtube and I get sued. I love mashed potatoes!

Dr. Dre vs Usher vs Beyonce vs Michael Jackson

T.I. vs Vanilla Ice vs Eminem

Kanye West vs Destiny’s Child vs Whitney Houston

I used Mixed in Key’s new Mashup software. It’s impressive how well it worked and how quick too. There are points where things need a little adjusting for timing and phrasing. Also there’s a lot of room for improvement in the software that I’m sure they’ll tackle in future updates. Looping, trimming and extending clips, Track Mute and Panning, and VST support would be awesome and make it much more complete. All in all, a really cool and pretty affordable application ($39). http://mashup.mixedinkey.com/
