With October comes my favorite time of the year … Fall … cool days, brisk nights and mornings, colorful trees, harvest vegetables, soups & stews, seasonal wines and college football … to me, life is pretty good this time of year!

FROM THE ECC CHEF
It is with great pleasure that I am ready to announce the return of
“Tuesday Night Build a Burger Night”, by popular demand of course. I don’t know about you, but I’m not ready to put that grill away just yet.
There’s nothing like the aroma of that first flash of fire rising up from the coals. We’ve all got favorite items for grilling from ribs to steaks to
fish, and of course, vegetables. Here’s a great and simple recipe for spareribs that can be prepared in advance and heated as needed on the
grill, and perfect for that Saturday game.
Chef Dennis O. Harris, Executive Chef
Mustard-Glazed Spareribs 8-10 servings Ingredients 3 Tbls. Fresh Rosemary, chopped fine 1\2 bulb Garlic, chopped 4 racks Pork spareribs, approx. 10-12 lbs. 1 1\2 cups Brown Sugar, packed firmly 1 cup Dijon Mustard, country style, course ground 1 cup Cider Vinegar 5 Tbls. Blackstrap Molasses Rub the ribs with the rosemary and garlic and place on a sheet tray. Cover with foil and cook in a 325-degree oven for approximately one and half hours. Check for tenderness. While the ribs are cooking prepare the sauce by simply simmering all the remaining ingredients over low heat to prevent scorching. Heat the grill and place the ribs on the rack, meat side up. Glaze the top with the sauce and continue to cook for 5-10 minutes until the bottom starts to get crisp. Turn the ribs over so the meat side is now hovering over the flame and glaze the other side. Cook for an additional 3-5 minutes, checking often so as not to burn the glaze over the direct heat. Remove and split the ribs into edible pieces and enjoy. Serve them with some of your favorite sides.

A MESSAGE FROM THE ECC GOLF AND GREENS COMMITTEE: To our golfing members, Golfing rounds have exceeded 7000 to date. We are ecstatic about the activity of ECC’s golf course and congratulate our patrons. While the course is receiving a lot of play and with that wear and tear. We request everyone be mindful and repair divots on the greens and make this course a very positive experience for all members. There has been a lot of discussion regarding the “switching of #9 and #18.” golf committee voted to maintain the current format until 2021. At that time we will most likely survey the membership and make a permanent decision before 2021 season opens. Things to consider in making this decision:
• Is it driving more revenue to the #19th hole
• Is there confusion on the course #9 Green, #10 tee, #18 green and does this change effect #1 tee
• Our Greens Keeper Kenny Eggleston stated that this change has been good for his crew and created efficiencies
• It provides a more balance 9 holes by #1 stroke As always, this is a members club and democracy has a place in the decision making process. So, please if you have an opinion , please contact the pro or our golf committee. Thank you all of members for their understanding through a very stressful COVID year. ECC Greens Committee
I hope everyone has been enjoying the golf course this season. Last month was a little cooler but not quite as dry as this time last year. The mountains around the course are lighting up with beautiful fall colors. This year’s colors are predicted to be the best of the last 3 years. Frost is coming. The grass will be slowing and we will begin preparing for Halloween and making plans for this winter and next spring. We have already started leaf removal which will last through November. The irrigation system for the golf course is shut off each year the first week of November. Edgewood country club is beautiful in the fall. I hope everyone gets a chance to come out and enjoy the golf course in its many splendid collars this fall.
