Park City Getaway!

Last weekend we had a nice getaway to Park City for Toby's work leadership seminar at The Canyons Resort. We were given the royal treatment...we were fed breakfast lunch and dinner everyday,our room was paid for, Toby was paid for all 4 days, and basically all we had to do was show up and go to a few meetings of which I wasnt even required to go, if I didnt want to, so I got to veg out in the room, go for walks, shop at the outlets, explore, or hang out at the pool while Toby was in meetings. Anyway, the last night we were there, they did a big bbq outside by the lifts. We had bbq brisket, chicken and beef ribs, served with green salad, coleslaw, potato salad, fruit salad, cornbread, beans. For dessert they served chocolate mousse cake with berries and apple crisp. We had a feast! My favorite was the Chipotle Mango BBW glaze they served along with the meat. His dept secretary requested the recipe, and The Canyons chef actually emailed it to her. So without further adieu, here is the yummy glaze recipe: CHIPOTLE MANGO BBQ GLAZE(Ruben Aguirre, Banquets Executive Chef, Canyons Park City) 1 lb Frozen Mango Cubed 1 gallon Cattleman Gold bbq sauce 1 can chipotle pepper 1 cup tomato paste 2 oz. molasses 2 oz. honey Salt and ground white pepper We had a lot of fun and we got to socialize and hang out with the other security officers and their wives at night. One night we played "Liar's Club" which was a hilarious game similar to Balderdash. We laughed so hard we cried! I am so impressed with the new managers of the dept and how things have turned around for the better. They are such great mentors for the officers and there is such a great morale and respect for eachother now. One of his managers got emotional when he expressed thanks for all the officers do to serve and protect the brethren and the church. We went away feeling very rejuvenated and uplifted and we can't wait for the next seminar!
