I have a leg of lamb on the grill (more on that later...) and this cigar is happening. Fantastic. Whichever one of you guys put this in the box pass, very nice. Thank you.

Yogurt crusted leg of lamb...
Store had legs of lamb on sale. One of my favorites on the Primo. I made a marinade from Greek yogurt, Penzey Greek seasoning, fresh mint, lemon juice, and a few garlic cloves. Overnight with the yogurt in a bag, then roasted at 400* to 140 internal(rose to 152 during rest ). Sided with roasted greek cauliflower. Just tossed in evoo, S&P, rosemary, lemon juice and slivered garlic cloves.

Well, we can only hope everything turned out tasty.

I cooked up some fresh halibut steaks on the barby the other night, 'twas pretty good.

Now I need to start restocking my depleted humidor...

Not exactly sure. Some more Cuban leaf might not be so bad. ;)

Doh I didn't realize those were the "real deal".

All of the Cuban famous brands have been copied it seems, mostly by Dominican cigar companies. I've never understood that: don't trademark names apply to the cigar biz? Or is it because since Cuba is still a Communist state the West can say go jump in the lake?

Something about they are only trademarked everywhere in the world but US.
Most of the brand owners had to flee Cuba when Castro took over and, at least in the USA, they were
granted the rights to the brands.
