  • My first paying gig....sort of.

    A friend of my wife is have a family reunion soon and has to provide a main course for dinner one night. So she asked me to hook her up with some pulled pork. I am not making a profit on the deal, just covering costs of meat, charcoal, etc. But is still the first time I have been "hired" to cook for someone else. Maybe with a little word of mouth I can start getting paid for having fun.

    A few pork butts


    Rubbed and ready to hit the UDS.


    Here is a pic of one of them about to get foiled. The others look about the same so I only took one pic


    And a big old pile of pulled pork


    I will be vaccum sealing and freezing this and giving it to her this coming weekend with some reheating instructions. I also plan on giving her a batch of finishing sauce. I did eat one sandwich-for quality control purposes.
