A smoker, of course! This is the Lazy-Q, the busy man's solution to all his smoking problems. The chimney on the right holds wood chips formed into pucks, and the smoker automatically feeds a new puck into the smoker every 20 minutes. Set it, and forget it! The Lazy-Q enables the home smoker to simultaneously smoke meat and accomplish tasks like cooking habanero BBQ sauce in the kitchen (aka. Death Sauce), pick up his dearest friend Pei from the Caltrain station, and play catch with his less dear friends (aka. boys).
Brisket and ribs were dry rubbed, refrigerated overnight (I assume), and smoked at 200 degrees for 10 hours, at which point everyone wanted to eat. The ones that came out after 11 hours were far superior. We're thinking next time fifteen hours at 150 would be even better. 
Beef....
...and more beef!!
What birthday is complete without a cake and some strawberries? These genetically engineered beauties were sweeter than anything I've tasted in a long time. The cake, from Sheng Kee, was layers of mango mousse, white cake, raspberry mouse, and chocolate cake. It sounds like too many flavors, but it worked really well. Light, fluffy, and nice after a meal of nothing but meat (and a salad that JC snuck into Wung's kitchen, and for which I whipped up a vinaigrette). Go team salad!
