My First Dinner Pic > General Discussion

Posted: 4/12/2014 5:04:08 PM EDT

This is my humble, very humble, dinner picture thread. As a preface, unfortunately, I am not allowed a grill or smoker due to my apartment complex rules, so I have to make due with what is available.

On Friday around noon, I decided I wanted to make the pork shoulder in my freezer for dinner tonight. Last night around 2130 local, I trimmed the skin and added a rub to sit overnight.

" />

This morning around 0700 local, the shoulder went into the 7 quart Crock Pot along with an onion, garlic, jalapenos and sea salt.

" />

It barely fit

12 hours later, everything comes out of the Crock Pot. The bones fell away with no assistance.

" />

The final product is pork, onion and jalapeno over a baked red potato with a side of steam veggies. Beverages include Victory Storm King Stout and Bell's Special Double Cream Stout.

" />

" />

Not nearly as fancy as others, but it was still delicious!

These red taters cook up weird, the other night I waaayyyyyy over cooked one, but visually it looked fine. This one looks terrible, but was perfect. Probably the chef

I can allow the no spoon, but this square plate business needs to be nipped in the bud.

3/10 you lost 7 points for the plate

ETA: just noticed the OP was an Okie. You get 10/10 because we are all winners. Whose special? That's right you are. Good job participating.

Normal crock pot, the clamps are there so the lid won't fall off during transport, like for a tailgate.
