Calmest drive north in a while – safely back on a very cold Lake Vermilion
Just realized I’m facing a boatload of treadmill time this week if I want to keep the 100 mile a month thing going

Dara wrote a very nice review of the new Chef Shack Ranch location in Minneapolis that reminded me I needed to write a post about our visit last week. Located at 31st and Franklin near the Mississippi River, you need to pick your day to visit carefully, as they are only open from 5-10pm Thursday – Saturday and for Sunday brunch from noon-4pm. Oh, it’s much easier to park in the back too…
The Big Boy Ranch Plate was our primary reason to visit, although Colleen also wanted a bag of the famous mini-donuts that we usually get from the big red truck at the Mill City Farmers Market during the warmer and less snowy parts of the year. As Dara wrote in her review, the $25 meat plate contains “buttery and tender biscuits, baked beans, a bacon bratwurst, fresh cucumber pickles, perky red cabbage, and some combination of pulled pork, barbecued chicken and brisket.” It was amazing. All we added was a side of the excellent fries (makes sense now that I know the Barbette connection) and the mini-donuts.
Whatever part of my brain it is that’s supposed to tell me to stop eating Girl Scout cookies is clearly broken
