We finally got a Cave City watermelon thanks to my mom and it did not disappoint! It was so big I was afraid we would end up wasting half of it so we shared part of it with Dawn and Chris.
I saw a little stand somewhere in Little Rock the other day advertising Cave City watermelons but I didn't see the white, oval sticker on any of them, so I didn't stop. Fraud!
And anyway, Johnson Brothers are my favorite growers. I think it's because one brother was my teacher in high school and the other brother's wife was Brad's teacher. That probably doesn't mean they grow better melons, but I'm always happy, so why switch??
I know this is weird, but I love the light pink part of the meat that is right down by the rind! Everyone thinks I'm crazy but I think I like the texture of it. I guess instead of eating that part, I could try this recipe for Pickled Watermelon Rind. Yeah, probably not. It might be good, but I'm not that ambitious.
And it was soooo good!! Thanks for sharing!
