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.

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.

Have had the McCormic spice pack in with grrrrr, shoulder meat, but it
smells teriffic. Still a little tough, needs a few more hours but it
is starting to taste good. I should note in the slow cooker, the fluid/
sauce should only be at the bottom of the thing, thick and should not
cover the meat completely. Right now I have about 3 pounds of meat and
probably 1 1/2 cups of sauce, stir here and there. Another note, this
is a pretty good substitute for BBQ but not like doing it on a grill
or smoker. Going out now to start the ribs, check you later.

.........thunderstorms have hit us, with rain forecast for the next few
days. ;-(


Rain will clear out by early morning............I will be taking my son
out tomorrow for a refresher of boat operations/safety including docking
and anchoring in shallow water. We did this 4 or 5 times last year after
he received his boating safety certification (via in class USCG Power
Squadron). After this refresher lesson he will be ready to take the boat
out on his own...........he earned it after 15 years of watching and
learning from me at the helm of our various boats.


We took the boat out as planned. My son was at the helm the entire time and
had a flawless performance. He wants just one more time with me and then
he feels he will be ready to be out on his own with his friends.

It was a great day on the water today!

Time to cook the ribeyes.........yum, yum.

I don't see many menus since my wife is a chef. But there's a Weber
restaurant near my old office. Everything cooked on Webers, which are
manufactured nearby. Went there a couple times with the team.
Saw "Pulled Pork" on the menu and had trouble not cracking wise about
it since the office crowd is always PC now. I did point it out to the
guys but they were too afraid to even snicker. Or maybe they thought
I was a pervert - hard to tell.
I thought about asking the gal across from me - I would try to keep a
straight face - if she had any experience with "Pulled Pork", but just
kept my mouth shut. It wasn't easy though.
Seems to me a stupid menu item, but then maybe I've just got a dirty
mind. No, I never tried it, and I don't have a recipe.

Call it shredded pork and get out some biscuits, a slice of onion, and
a salt shaker and eat like your wife ain't around...

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.
