SF / Puerto Rico BBQ

A couple weeks back we had a few guest from out of town visiting us here in Hawaii. My childhood friend from El Paso Mike who has lived in San Francisco for the past 8 or so years stopped over to visit for 5 days and my friend Maria's parents the Galarza's were fresh off the plane from Puerto Rico. This was Mike's last day and he had a plane to catch only a couple hours after these photos were snapped. We put together a BBQ to wish him farewell as well as to welcome the Galarza's to our beautiful island. Prior to the BBQ we took Mike on a bike ride from Ala Mo to Diamond Head and back fueled by Keystone Light and Gasolina (think Caprisun in a package but Vodka, Tequilla, Rum, fruitpunch, etc. made in Puerto Rico)! The SXA ohana really know's how to show our guest a good time. Check out our Hawaii x Destroy site for the antics that went on while Mike was in town. Pure craziness!

That's Mike in the red shirt! He's a huge fan of Chingo Bling!

Congratulations Bev!

I know this isn't a BBQ related post but to some extent it is. This is Bev my girl and best friend. She's the one who inspired me to turn SXA into reality. She's the reason I'm a little on the heavy side due to her amazing cooking. This past weekend Bev realized her own dreams and graduated from the school of Travel Industry Management at the University of Hawaii at Manoa! It took awhile but nonetheless she stuck with it. Now that she's done with school she can get back to helping me prepare for all the BBQ's we will be putting on this summer!

Happy 28th Dyson!

Happy Birthday to one good braddah! Sorry I posted this up so late. His actual Birthday was last Wednesday May 9th. Better late than never!

Happy Mother's Day

Went to Nos house yesterday to watch the John "Bones" Jones vs Rashad Evans fight. The fight was just alright nothing spectacular. The BBQ on the other hand was the main event. Braddah Tim had some burgers, dogs, BBQ sticks, and portugese sausage on the grill. By the looks of Dirty Dave and Johnny's opu Braddah Tim did a great job! Mahalos Nos for the invite and goodtimes as always!

Spring is here!

It's that time of year when the BBQ's move from the backyard at home to the front yard of the Ala Moana beach park. The SXA ohana packed up the grill, tent, coolers, and fams and set up shop on a nice sunny Sunday. My newborn niece made her first appearance at an SXA BBQ at the Ala Moana Beach Park! My mom just came in from SF and will be here all summer long enjoying the grandchildren and good food coming off the grill! Be on the lookout for upcoming BBQ's at the park and please feel free to stop by and join us. Just be sure to bring some at least a cold pack to share with everyone!
