I whipped up another good pork chop dinner on the grill last night. The pork chops were fresh and super thick-cut from the local slaughterhouse, so I decided to brine them. I had never brined pork chops before, and oh my goodness, it made for some juicy, tender chops.
As I was grilling last night, the sun was emerging and the humidity was fading. I had a homemade margarita with me while I was sitting near the grill. Things were looking up, if only for a minute, and I needed a tune to accompany the mood. I settled on Khruangbin. I came to them through the song below a few months ago. The song and the video are amazing. I love this band's sound for so many reasons. Hard to believe they are contemporary band from the Houston suburbs.
So yeah, the music fit. It was a stone groove, my man. I advise you to check them out if you like any combination of pop, funk, soul, Afrobeat or retro R&B. The NY Times had a nice deep dive on them a few weeks ago. Worth a read. Looks like it's available outside the pay wall here.
