Moderators dtel Posted May 8, 2017 Moderators Share Posted May 8, 2017 Yes they are, I love a good butt. One thing that helps is I found an easy way to pull them, it's a SS shaft with a disc at the bottom with 5 shorter rods off the bottom. It goes in a cordless drill, you put the butts in a big pot and run the drill at full speed. It shreds 2 butts in about 1 Minute, which is much better than doing it manually. I say big pot because if it is not tall enough pork butt will be flying everywhere, our little dogs prefer the shorter pot. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This one is not pretty but it works well and really effecient on wood, but compleatly manuel so I can't go far. But you eat like a bird,barely enough to taste, but it's how you stay in shape I guess, I need to go back to my diet, but not today. This is the same one you seen. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Between the 4 it's 37.5 pounds, will bring some to daughter, eat all I can and freeze the rest, it freezes well, good thing. They went on at 9:30, I will be lucky if they are done by midnight. It has not even melted off all the yellow mustard yet.

Ground cloth, perfect. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators dtel Posted May 9, 2017 Moderators Share Posted May 9, 2017 One of the butts are done, another done in another 5-6 degrees, the other two almost 15 degrees. It's 10:55pm, they have been on for 13.5 hours. It's why I am not crazy about cooking butts. Taste good to me. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are two there, as well as two tarps under that. Three 18' intex in 9 years is not too bad. However she agreed with the kids gone, im done w/pools. This bottom of the pool plastic/vynil is thick, i pressure wash it when projects are complete. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tarheel Posted May 9, 2017 Author Share Posted May 9, 2017 Morning gents. Off to supervise the Pella front door and side lite installation at LF's place. The two guys were there all day yesterday and admitted they have only been installing for one year. Left the house unsecured saying they did not have the right screws for the dead lock. There also is an uneven gap at the top of the door. LF paid top dollar for this entry door and the installation WILL be a top dollar install. I don't mind calling corporate and raising hell. So off to work I go...... 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
