Thanksgiving Tradition

Forums:

Its been a Thanksgiving tradition for a handful of years now. Dose and cook a pig.

Her name is Rosie, She's only 22 pounds and was born to be eaten.

Big Ted is practicing for the Mississippi Bowl and will miss out on the feast. The coaches will have a Thanksgiving dinner for all the players but I doubt it will be a sweet lil piggy.

I seem to remember last year you had a large Fire-pit in the yard for the slow Roast.

Maybe that was the year before ??

Keep us posted.

Awesome!

I just came back from the store and picked up an fresh 11 Pork Shoulder (for Pernil). I am throwing a dinner/birthday party Sunday.

The new tradition is my little family leaving me out of their Thanksgiving plans, after I just fed them a week earlier. Oh well. I'll survive. lol

 >>>>>Dose and cook a pig

 

Seems a little cruel to give LSD to a pig and then kill it.

 

Not to mention a waste of acid.

I smoked all morning & now I'm off to cook a Turkey. There's going to be massive leftovers as I'm the only guest.

What's the rush any ways?

Wishing everyone good everything... Tim, your day sounds wonderful, once again.
