Then came all the great stuff from the garden to be dried. The blade is some Japanese instrument that my wife procured for me, so very sharp it scares me, and I don't scare all that easily.
There was no harm done and all the while enjoying the best single-malt known to man. I have bottles of 30, 25, and 21 year old on the back shelf in my cabinet, this is the best in my humble opinion, the "Mother's Milk" of single malt scotch.
Tomorrow I start processing 20 pounds of "CW's hipshot burgers", and buns from the Ross / Ida thread. Incidentally, my wife has never eaten a steak, hunk of prime, leg-o-lamb, baby back rib, woman just has never eaten a cut, can not stomach the thought. She eats burgers, sausage, ham, chicken, and turkey just about any way I make it. She said to tell CW his burger recipe is the best the burger she's ever had, she turned 60 last week and has had more than a few burgers, and I've got to agree that they are the best ever. She also now thinks that I'm the best pizza maker ever, and even tho I didn't take a pic of the other evenings Canadian bacon-pineapple special, I find it hard to argue with her. In the morning I'll start processing the burgers and the buns that will encase them. More to come, it's great to be us! RAY
