    Scored some free wood

    My wife and I have been hosting at our local campground here in Nebraska the last couple weeks. Part of the perks of being the host camper is getting free firewood. Long story short in our discussions with the campground manager, I mentioned my love of smoking meat and he asked what woods I...

    Jalapeno lime pork butt

    Ok, looks like the rest of the pics came through.  I was having some fire issues!  It has been so horrible humid here in Nebraska the last week I think was my problem getting some good coals going.  I usually use lump charcoal but ended up firing up some regular briquettes to get the show on the...

    Jalapeno lime pork butt

    So I finally got around to experimenting with this. I pureed 4 jalapenos, 6 limes (peeled), 6 garlic cloves, a couple tsp of sugar and just enough water to make it an injectable liquid. Injected and then let sit for an hour the rubbed. I tweaked my normal rub a bit for this one...no chili...

    help

    I am far from the canning expert!! I really try any excuse possible to get out of the kitchen when my wife is canning! I just know she has a huge boiling bubbling mess of salsa going and everything has to be boiling before going in jars. I will do a little more research on cold packing...
