What did everyone cook today?
-
I had some family visiting this weekend from the great state of Tennessee. My wife has been wanting to eat a little better and we have been, but this weekend was time for some good comfort food. I got up early to prepare a decent down home breakfast for 8 of us. I was too busy to snap pics while cooking, but managed to take one of my plate at the end. The sausage was my first batch of Walton’s Holly. The entire fare was Country ham, bacon, scrambled eggs, and biscuits with gravy from the Holly sausage. I also put out homemade grape jelly I canned from last year.
GWG8541 looks great now I’m hungry. I bet your company was pleased.

cdavis @NDMike I think they approved by the way it disappeared. It was a pig trifecta. The family visiting was two cousins and their spouses. I reminisced with them about the first time I saw a hog slaughtered and hanging in a smoke house. It was my Uncle, their dad, who introduced me to how the food we all love so much, was produced. The first Country ham I tasted was one he raised, slaughtered, cured and smoked. I’ve been hooked ever since.

zbigjeff They won’t cook soft just mix them in, chopped or diced of course. Don’t make a simple recipe complicated… LAZY is the operative here
JoeB Knowing my knuckleheads. We will try it both ways. Yep, keep it simple for sure. Thank you.

GWG8541 great memories to share! Family Traditions are so important. I love introducing my kids to things that have been passed down!

Tex_77 all you used for the brine was sweet tea? How long did you leave it in the brine? I am intrigued by this!
