Welcome back to the ranch. How was Fathers Day for everyone? I hope it was memorable and you all called your Fathers or sent Cyber cards. I did. I sent one to my Dad who I talk to often he lives in the Wash area in Vancover, beautiful area. I also sent one to my Step Dad who took the time to raise use four kids for ten years and give us a stable parent in the home. Hear is the link to the E-Cards Awesome Cyber Cards
Our Fathers day took me couple of days to perpare for. A friend of ours gave us a way of cooking a roast so it to be very tender, Don’t really know if this is a family secret or not. I bought a Prime Choice roast at Sprouts , Dry rubbed it down w/Corky’s B-Q my son in law pick up for us in Memphis when he was layed over on his way to Indiana anyways spiced it good and put it in the freezer and there it stayed for 2hrs. then put in the refrigerator for 3 days they said to do “but I coun’dt imagine” l had it in the refrigerator for a day in a half. Sunday is here and I pulled the roast out preheated the oven to 500 they said then put the roast in and dropped the temp. to 325 and cook for 20 min. per. pound. About half way in I checked the roast and it looked alittle dry, well I was cooking the roast in a pirex which “I don’t recomended anymore”, I went ahead and put a little water in the pan to moisturised the roast and guess what happened. “The Dam Pan Exploded” yes glass every where the oven was full of glass the floor and even down in our TV room I had the oven door open you know poring water into the pan. Well it is now a hour before everyone is to arrive and there is glass everywhere and the Roast Oh God, J my other half came running in to see all the commotion and check me, He said it sounded like a explosion. I grabbed the roast and reaching in to the oven I severely burned my arms in two places but I got the roast out threw it in the sink which was empty and J went right to cleaning out the oven and floor and the other room, I started scrubbing the roast yes scrubbing I didn’t know if it had any dam glass on it so I needed to clean it up and yes during the washing the roast I lost alot of the dry rub spices I spent days putting on so I rub it down again. The oven was all clear of glass so the roast went back in and in a metal pan this time and we only lost 20 min or so. J and I decided to not say a word to the kids that were coming over . So we didn’t and if I may say so, It was the most tender of a roast I have ever cooked . And that was our Fathers day and a Dam Great one at that. Sorry I didn’t grab any pictures I was in shock and in a hurry we had a deadline you know, but I did find another person that had a similar misshap so take a look at hers it will help the vision. This is not my explosion hers was a macaroni in Pyrex and mine exploded into three rooms. That how strong of a blast we had. See you next time, K
Ha, I am sad I wasn’t there to capture the madness on film! So did you get all the glass out of the stove yet?

Wow! I’ve heard of some of those dishes exploding before. I’m so sorry you got burned! Those darned things are dangerous. I had something similar happen with a Princess House teapot filled with boiling water on my stove. The bottom of it stuck to the electric burner even though I used the metal ring they recommended to be used on electric stoves. I was trying to pick it up by the handle to remove it from the burner but the bottom of it stuck and the rest came away in my hand and boiling water went everywhere. By some strange miracle, none of the water touched me but I can still almost see in slow motion to this day how that teapot separated from it’s bottom and the boiling water went all over my stovetop and floor. Yikes.
