What would I do with out a little help from my friends? Thanks to Jesse, Jen, and Nick we were able to prep for our big BBQ over at The Speed Merchant shop. Jesse is the man! Dude was slicing and dicing and really helped to make prep so much easier. Not to mention braddah made some ono fried rice! With a little heads up for where to go shopping from Braddah Nelson we were on our way. We started off by going to Gonzalez Northgate Supermarket to pick up some meats and veggies. The best supermarket I've ever been to. Nothing but espaniol being spoken here, but the service and selection was "No Ka Oi"! From there we headed over to Ken's Island Market for some portugese sausage, lup chong, and Aloha Shoyu. Go figure get one local market in Long Beach! Once we got done with Ken's we headed over to the visit with Nelson and Dustin at their jiu jitsu class before heading to the Long Beach Farmers Market for some fresh veggies for the skewers. We seriously were on the go here and there but it was all good fun. Big mahalos to Jen for assembling the beautiful skewers. Took long time but trust me it was worth it!
