Friday night rub it with garlic, Thyme, rosemary, salt and pepper. Let it sit in braising pot until after sunrise service on Easter morn, then to the oven with some white wine to braise until it pulls apart. Will make a gravy with that braising liquid. No mint.

Kind of like these elaborate cover-up recipes to disguise venison killed in the rut. Or, "I got a bad antelope", neglecting to mention an ass shot and chased 3 miles in the pickup. Well this is a fine pickle we're in, should'a listened to Joe McCarthy and George Orwell I guess.

Grew up with mint jelly. Only use it occasionally now, but when I do, always the artificial green jello stuff. No fancy boutique schit for me. 😁 I’m the same way about cranberry sauce. I’ll take the canned jelly stuff over any frufru concoctions. “Life is life and fun is fun, but it's all so quiet when the goldfish die.”
