<![CDATA[Picked up a new toy!]]>I was bored earlier today and was looking on a local marketplace site and saw an add for a smoker. It was a Lil Tex 1400 for $60. I opened the add and it said he’d take $50 for it. I couldn’t call him fast enough. They are selling new for over $600! I can’t afford a PK100 right now so I will make this work. I plugged in to check it out and I’m rolling smoke! Score!!!

Think smokers will get harder and harder to find. Haven’t seen any on it local marketplaces. You better buy a lottery ticket. It’s your lucky day.

Don’t know why it was called that. It was white bead that was drizzled with chokecherry syrup then drizzled again with some heavy whipping cream. That was really good!!! I should try some of that again!!!

I’ve heard of people making a glaze with chokecherry jelly and a bit of bbq sauce to put on ribs.

If I can ever talk her into an extra pint I might try to make some. I am pretty tight with it, don’t hardly share with my wife.

She helps me make sausage and sauerkraut.

she looked me dead in the eye and said “You better go get it”!

I had a similar experience with a meat band saw. Since we’ll be butchering 4-5 hogs this fall I was shopping around and she asked what the meat saw would do for us. I showed her a video of one and 2 seconds in she exclaimed “We need that!”

Its so nice when they enable our obsessions.
