Well, we just had a great thunderstorm come though our area. Today it
was so blasted windy! The lake would have been miserable.


Well, I haven't gotten my titles transfered over ont he 23' Marquis
yet, AND it just so happened that my sticker on the Chris Craft ran
out in '06. So Friday I call the local Natural Resources office, to
see what I could do and got an answering machine. Seems like they are
only open half days from Monday through THURSDAY!


GRRRRRR!


So, being license challenged,a nd questionable weather for tomorrow,
I'm going to sulk about heading for the lake. But looks like I'll be
bbqing about 6 lb. of chicken and a few lbs of burgers and brats for
my my wife, daughter, son's family, as well as my brother's family as
well. Oh, and I can't forget dear old Dad too.


We'll get by.


Yeah, yesterday I took dad on our semi-anual trip to plant at the
cemeteries. We always have a cool time together, yesterday we did 8
gravestones. Today I have a full plate. Start by deciding weather to
make a guy an offer on the Whaler, (it is stickered, and on a trailer
pointed straight at the lake) start a pot of pulled pork, start the
grill and do ribs with (got some fresh apple and hickory wood ready
for the grill) play with boat engines, rerack a recently brewed dark
ale, and brew up 5 more gallons of austrailian ale for summer, may
even drink a couple in the afternoon. Anyway, thanks dad, and anyone
else who served my country, happy memorial day. Don't drink and drive,
drink and stay put!


How do you do a pot of pulled pork. I've cooked a shoulder on the Weber
'til the meat falls off the bone, but never done it in a pot.- Hide quoted text -

You can do it a couple of ways. quick stove top way is to simply add
meat, spices, broth and simmer it till it's done, drain, fork off
bone, return to pot with bbq sauce and spices, or steamed veggies, or
whatever, simmer till hot, serve.


Today is the better method, the crock pot, I am king of the crock pot!
Beans and meat rule. Anyway take a shoulder or a butt and bone it
(saves room too in the pot) add sauce and spices and cook on low
setting till it's done. Start in morning, eat after work or cook
overnight, turn off in morning, turn pot back on on hour before
dinner. Sometimes we will add to, and keep a bean stew going in the
pot for a day or two.


Other day a lady at the meat counter suggested we try the McCormick
slow cooker spice pack for pulled pork, I will let you know how it
works out, looks interesting. Have a great day, thanks vets.


Thanks! I appreciate that. Might give it a try, especially the slow cooker
method.- Hide quoted text -

Hey John, try the McCormick package I noted earlier, it is real good,
blew us all away. We ate it all, nice blend of spices. Not quite
authentic, but better than anything I ever expected out of a package.
Later, no more about meat, just boats.

Now I am back to powering up my Brockway, and getting a bigger trailer
so it will be easier to handle. If I can get it up on plane, it will
do everything I need it to do. I am starting to see a lot of low to
midrange 20 footers on the net, I should be able to find something I
can make work.

Later, me.
