Don’t remember what I did yesterday morning but I did something. Around noon I took the pork butt out of the smoker after 22 hours of cooking. Then I put another two in the smoker and started working on the ones I took out. After taking the pork out, it takes me about 2 hours to get it ready for the freezer. From 13 lbs of fresh port butt I got 5 lbs of ever so good smoked pork. Yes there is a lot of fat that is cooked away. I guess that is why it’s so expensive to buy it cooked. This batch I prepared for barbeque rather than just pulled pork. I use a little more finely chopped pork crust in it for more flavor. When it’s all said and done I will have to have about 25 lbs of prepared smoked pork to take to Quartzsite for our little get together again.
Anyhow, Sharon & Don arrived over here at Rainbow’s End and came over and visited. Don was a little under the weather. He’s recovering from his battle with a ladder that he lost.
We went to the Escapees 4 o’clock. It was entertaining. We also paid for our tickets to go to the Liberty Opry Show – the 50’s & 60’s. Denny/Susie and Carol & I got our tickets from the solos who had a few extra reservations.
On the way there, at routes 146 & 150 is this cafe. Best hamburger I’ve had in a long time. Outstanding pies.
It’s old opry theater and it’s pretty cool.
Dog on if Elvis didn’t come out of retirement. Not bad looking for about 80 something. It was fun and the cost was $11. It’s hard to beat that. It was about 2 plus hours of fun..
We got back about 10:30 PM I think. Thanks goodness Denny was driving because I was sleeping. I just can’t stay awake in a car. Put me in an RV and I ‘m good for about 12-15 hours if need be.
Just another day in the neighborhood of RVing.
See ya………….
test by me...........
