brisket day

Simplest and best meal ever!

Get a brisket - pot roast - whatever you like!

This is pot roast - about $4 a pound. 

This one is about a pound and a half.

Brown it in a skillet if you prefer.

Add red wine - onions - garlic - any seasoning you like.

Add some broth, or just water if you prefer!

Into the Grok Pot it goes!

Cook on "high" till it simmers a little...

Cover and cook  - on "low" till it falls apart -

And/or you can't stand to wait another minute!

Simple - easy - fast - never fails!

(Well, if you totally went on vacation and left it cooking -

yes - it might not turn out so well.)

You can do this with chicken or pork -

Just use white wine - or broth - or just water!

Might take 4 to 6 hours... I cook it 8 - 10 hours!

During the massive 2 month-long heat wave 

here in Texas - I have been enjoying alot of

chicken and tuna salads... some deli meats - 

Things that don't need alot of heat to make.

Getting the SlowCooker out is nice, for a change!

In other news -

This little 90 year old lady beat me arm-wrestling

Not once - but twice! 

She asked if I were "joshing her!"

Could I really be that puny?

Yes - I am that puny! For now!

This moose-head, and squirrely guy were enjoying the sun...

My Bigg Butt tore up the Sealy mattress... 

So I got another - this is a Bed In A Box....

So far - it's like a Tempurdedic  - but not so $$...

Labor Day Sale... Memory foam.

Neighbors sneak in to my apartment 

and crawl into the bed - to test it out!

Hopeful when I am not in it.

My beef jerky exploits continue as well...

It's quite fun to try new things - 

When ya get to eat the mistakes!

I am working on a new batch even as we speak.

Hope your weekend is great!

Any plans? Kinda subdued around here, too.

Stay Strong! It's all good!
