Smoking a pork butt but having a hard time getting the internal temp above 190. It stalled early for several hours at 145. Strange piece of meat...

Doing this 2nite

I like the sound of this. Love one pan dinners, and I've been eating a lot of thighs. Usually rolled with asparagus, havarti, and ham inside, then a boatload of baked garlic broccoli thrown in.

This sounds like worth a try.

I added thin sliced potatoes, leeks and a little more vinegar to it because the sauceyness sounded like german potato salad. Also I only had 3/4 cabbage left in the fridge so wanted enough heft underneath the chicken to keep the skin above the braise.

I'll keep you abreast and let you know if it does. What people think of fat causing such problems is really just more hogwash they've been brainwashed with. It's insulin, not fat, that causes heart problems. The bulk of the cholesterol in our bodies is made by the body itself cause it is necessary for energy and overall health. Even when people make an attempt to lower their cholesterol w/their eating habits, the body will compensate when need be and produce even more when it senses any cells need more.

Just had more of the same meal about 30 minutes ago. 6 scrambled eggs, 1 fried, bacon and salmon.

The Incredible Edible Egg®
Is it cage free? Free range? Pasture raised? Anymore, it's not just if this or that food is good for ya but does it come from a good source. No denying the egg is nutrient rich but how much better is one source from the other? The best eggs I've had come from a work colleague of my wife's who has her own chickens and gets all her eggs from them. You can really tell the difference in both the color of the yolk and the taste.

Well, I will agree with Spartan on this, fresh farm eggs are noticeably better than commercial eggs in many ways. We buy all of ours from a vendor at a local farmer's market. I used to sell them, too (same farm) when I was in the grocery business. Eggs like these are one of the food items I believe are worth the extra money. And you are supporting farms or at least smaller producers.

I have 4 Rhode Island reds and 3 Bantaam / wyandotte mix. This keeps us with fresh eggs everyday, most of the time. A friends son, sells the chemicals they use at egg producing farms. If you knew what they give these chickens to lay eggs you would never buy the cheap white eggs at the store again.

Tried Wendy's Peppercorn Mushroom Melt.

Not bad for a fast food burger.

At my favorite Mexican restaurant (sadly not outdoors...too cold) having a Gran Marnier margarita on the rocks, leaning towards chile relleno platter or enchiladas.

I have never used fresh ginger, I keep hearing about how much better it is than the powdered crap, I just never remember to get the fresh stuff.
