Put a pork butt in a brine this morning and will let that sit in the fridge all day. Tomorrow morning I'll set up the Weber for a long cook and get it going.
Most of it I'll vacuum seal and freeze for pulled pork sandwiches over the winter time.
Just remembered I need to go into the office tomorrow morning so I guess that butt is going to brine a bit longer. I know a guy that brines his pork butt for 3 days before he smokes it.
 
Be careful what you say about KC and Lew. She has spotty connectivity but she is still keeping tabs on us here in RTT. ;)

They are going to Machu Picchu tomorrow. I am so jealous.
They are old folks, right? In the Quechua language Macchu Pichu translates as "old person" and either "pyramid, pointed multi-sided solid; cone" or " "portion of coca being chewed". (so really Old Mountain) How appropriate they should be there if they are long in the tooth.

"We're going to Old Mountain" said KC. "Of course you are!" said VeloClone.

I apparently didn’t get this show paused and it played 5-6 episodes unbeknownst to me. I watched half of season two kinda confused.
 
Learned today that I was the 2nd option for a promotion at work. Barely 4 months in. My head is spinning with that news.

Sorry about all the talking about me lately, just been a really awesome last couple weeks. Feels great having so much less stress.
I love hearing good things for people I know.
 
I made Paul Prudhomme's recipe for red beans and rice with ham hocks and and andouille sausage. It was good but I didn't think the beans were done enough. If I try it again I think I would boil the beans for 30-60 minutes before putting them in the pot.

Agree. My teenage son came home from school and talked about how stupid it is that people are stealing soap from school restrooms because of some stupid Tik-Tok challenge (his words, not mine). I'm glad he isn't caught up in all of that bullcrap.

I caught some of that on the news there is some real damage being caused by that "challenge". The ones that are dumb enough to post need to be expelled and their parents sent a bill for damages that needs to be paid before their kid can be readmitted.

Old is entirely relative, ya bum!

Soak them in cold water overnight.
 
My laptop takes like 5-10 minutes to just be usable. Will sit on the pull up screen picture and seem to do nothing. It ticks me off.
