Jeff fell... Just a Little Spill on the Ice.
Jeff Weesner
It was more embarrassing than anything else. The snow is gone. There is a strip of clear ice on the cement that I’ve passed for five days. Pajamas, farm jacket, LL Bean boots, and an Elkhound on a leash. I was thinking about checking the barn freezers for something to smoke.
It felt like gravity doubled. And I was down and looking like the day after Thanksgiving wishbone.
The answer to your question is…. I think I’ll smoke the last Pork Belly!!!
Without taking inventory, I remember a few interesting cuts in two freezers.
Pork: Sirloin Chops, Ribs, Ground Pork, Ground Mild Breakfast Sausage.
Beef: Round Roasts, Sirloin Roasts, Short Rib & Ground Beef.
There are some good YouTube recipes for the large, flavorful Sirloin Chops. If you like smashing a burger, mix a bowl of ground beef and mild breakfast sausage, your favorite condiments, with grated cheese. Round roasts are lean, so they are best for stewing. Maybe pack the roast cubes in a dry rub or Miso overnight in the fridge.
