    Default Pork.......it's what's for dinner!


    Friend of mine caught these two half grown porkers close to my feeder. There's more on the camera. Maybe he'll get them too, AND their Mama!

    Pork was for dinner last night. Friday evening bought a 4 lb. pork butt and early yesterday morning I injected it with a Myron Nixon recipe and rubbed generously with Dizzy Dust. Then was slow cooked on indirect heat on the grill using apple and hickory wood for 6 hours and cooked another hour and half wrapped in aluminum foil with just alittle apple juice in bottom to keep it moist. Now, things got even better, we topped it off with Ms. Pat's famous homemade apple pie and ice cream. Sorry no pics. GTT didn't mean to hijack your thread - just couldn't resist myself.

    Hijack away! Made my mouth water, man! Then the pie and ice cream really did it. I'm glad you didn't put a pic, that would have just made me sad. .

    D10, I can tell you a little history story about how at least "some" pigs got loose down here. My dad was born in 1941 and when he was just a little kid, the government came down here to Ouachita County and told our family and lots of others that they had one month to vacate their land......lock! stock, and barrel. That doesn't give one much time to find a new place, then arrange to move, not to mention getting the money for this, plus working at a full time job, and having 5 kids at home. My dad was the fourth child. Anyway, in those days, people ear marked their hogs and kept up with them that way. Our family and many others had to move the family home first, then go back for the stock, and when the time was up........it was up. Grandpa ran out of time and couldn't round up his hogs and there they were loose and on their own.

    Our old family land is now part of Lockheed Martin in East Camden. GTT

    You're welcome. My great-grandpa had a little country store that he had to leave. Just pick up and leave it! On top of that hardship, the government rationed gas and the family couldn't just make trip after trip moving their goods. You had to make your gas count. They were very unfair to my family and others around Camden, Bearden, and Hampton. Move it by this date or you lose it!

    Anyway, back to the hogs........glad to get rid of them! GTT

    It sounds like folks were getting hosed down there back then. How did the gov justify it and get away with that?
