The big feast here at the ranch. All the assorted beasts are on the pit!

Whatchacookin?

Damn I wish I was there...

I got two wild pig hams, a beef brisket, 3 racks of St. Louis pork ribs and 4 lbs of pork sausage.

Good morning, Bob! You're up before the chickens.

Good morning Richard! Yes! Up and at em this morning. Gonna be a loooooooong day

Bob, drinking coffee, getting ready to smoke 20 lb of kelbasi. Hope your feast goes well. miles

That smoker doesn't look expensive enough to make good food...

Should have added that pit looks like the same one from your old place. miles

You too Miles! Got about 25 carnivores showing up today.

No rattlesnake? kidding,,
Sounds good,how long should that take?

Oh. I dunno? Depends on the heat. Regardless we’re eating around 2:00 pm. Being weak of tooth I like my stuff tender so I can chew it with my ancient choppers and try not to loose any more. About 8:30 or 9:00 I’ll wrap the brisket and ribs in foil. The hams are already wrapped with the intention they become pulled pork.
Got them packed with sweet onion and orange slices! ( hey don’t knock it till you try it). And splashed a bit of cheap Italian salad dressing too. I dust everything with coarse black pepper and Tony Chachere’s original. All seem to like it.

I'm on my second cuppa, and swear I can smell it from here, KW!
Mornin'

🤣🤣🤣🤣👍👍👍👍

A tad cool and breezy down here this morning, gotta be nippy out there by the pit.

Good morning Birdy! 44 here and a slight, occassional breeze. Looks like the makings of a nice day!!!! One of our deer hunters just got here. The others are back at the hunting cabin.

👍👍👍

Dayam, K_Dub. That's a righteous bundle of goodies.

"Orange on the oinker" sounds good
Does the citrus help break it down some? or just add flavor,never cooked one

4 degrees here, right now.
We'll see what it drops to at sunrise.

I'd like to rub elbows with you good folks someday.

You'd enjoy it, Richard.
Bob is an educated man of many talents.

sounds epic Bob!

Sounds great. Now to make another pot of go-go juice and fry up some bacon. Crew will be here soon.

The old roosters are always up crowing early.

Is that at all normal?
Actually looked to be sure you weren't using metric as a joke.
I though Vegas winters weren't very cold.

DAMN!! Bob, That sounds good, we had a big ranch cook out Thursday, ranch hands and family's total 68 people, Pig, Elk, Axis, Chicken, Manoudo (sp) Beans and all the Mexican, food you could eat or carry away, for some reason your's sounds better Enjoy Rio7

Well heel... I missed a lot already! Slept in, I did!

Bet that tastes outta this world real Texas BBQ!

Bob don't think I can get there from Michigan by 2:00, wish I could sounds like a Feast!

Sounds like you're set for a good time. Lotsa work tending the fire. That pit looks well insulated so perhaps not as time consuming as my metal pit. Enjoy.

Some of the bests meals I remember eating down in Texas were cooked in a pit.

Northern New Mexico often drops below 0 in the winter. Here in Las Vegas, though, we've hit 100 exactly once, officially.
Here at the house, we are at 6550 feet above sea level, right on the edge of the Rockies.
A little north of us, at Eagle Nest, they sometimes are the coldest spot in the US. They sit just east of Wheeler Peak - 13,161 ft. the highest spot in NM.

Looked like a pride of lions on a wildebeest in the kitchen earlier. So I guess they enjoyed it. One rack of ribs and one ham left.

Leftovers!

If I could talk my wife into it, we'd move to TX,

Right next door to ol' kaywoodie.

oh man

that's the life

KW, do you still have my cell phone number? I'm still not getting a location drop or time.

I think you owe me fer not taking you fishing.

Lucky sucker.
